Aaron Proctor tagged me to list eight random things about myself.
* We have to post these rules before we give you the facts.
* Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
* People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
* Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.
1. I’ve been above the arctic circle in winter.
2. Once, in a small town in the middle of the Mexican rain forest, I got so sick with Montezuma’s revenge that I had trouble standing up long enough to take shower for three days.
(That’s not me)
3. I used to have a window office on the 33rd floor of a skyscraper in downtown.
I was a paralegal during and after the tech boom. I formed corporations and issued stock. (My sister Sarah took this picture.)
4. I love the desert.
5. I can be pretty messy.
6. I made this teddy bear when I was about twelve:
7. I have a big rubber duck.
8. Stepfamilies rock. There are a lot of good things about them. I like being in one. Not a lot of people will tell you that. It’s like it’s a secret. Even the hardest parts are good in the long run. My life is so much bigger and richer than it ever was before.
I’m tagging Hollywood Flakes, Publius and Centinel at Foothill Cities, 2020 Hindsight, erin’s kitchen, Superspark, Movingarden, Captain Crochet and Under the Dome. If anybody else wants to be tagged, leave a note with a link to your blog in the comments.
Check out Aaron’s and West Coast Grrly Blather’s and adopted virtual neighbor Bill Howdle’s (Dying Man’s Daily Journal) eight random things, too.
that’s awesome
You rock, too.
i don’t want to be tagged but just wanted to say that i enjoyed all your photos. your bear is so cute and my office is messier than yours.
How wonderful that you posted pics with your responses! I love the one of you on the 33rd floor. I love the desert too, and I’m way messier than either you or Jennifer.
What’s most hilarious is the Han-Solo-on-ice that goes with the five-star review of step families.
I take the cake for messiness…has anybody seen the USC video about me on YouTube when they’re in my old apartment? CD’s piled everywhere..stuff all over the floors..
iono….my office is preeeety bad. so bad, that i wouldn’t even post pictures of it. i’ll have to look for that video.
I did not realize that was Hans Solo on ice….until I saw the comment from jeremiahsmall.
Isn’t the internet wonderful? Here’s a related item I found:

That’s a wonderful link.
Can I be tagged??
Hi Kolby, you are officially tagged, too, now! Where you will you blog your answers? If you want, you can post them here.
I’ll use kahunna.net. It’s front page is technically also a blog… but I only post when Dubya makes a smart decision. (j/k)
Great list. re #4…you and me both.
Where were you in the Arctic Circle?
I’m planning a trip there.
I also love the desert.
That picture was taken in Noorvik. We flew into Kotzebue and rode sleds hooked up to snow mobiles the rest of the way.
That looks like lots of fun. There is something very fascinating about extreme places. Like the Desert and the far North.
I’m planning a driving trip from the Mexican border to the Arctic Ocean. Likely destinations are Prudhoe Bay or Tuktoyaktuk.
