I’ve been tagged by Charley to meme eight random thoughts about myself.
Here are the rules:
- Each player starts with 8 random facts/habits about themselves.
- People who are tagged write a blog post about their own 8 random things and post these rules.
- At the end of your blog you need to tag 8 people and post their names.
- Don't forget to leave them a comment and tell them they're tagged, and to read your blog.
Now for the 8:
- I took first year, second semester and second year, first semester Spanish in college as my language requirement. The rule was that I should take second year because of the two years I had in high school, but I couldn’t remember enough to fail the competency test properly.
- I learned all I know about The Hobbit from my brother and a couple of friends because I’d tried to read it about eight times never getting past chapter 3. (I’ve since slogged all the way through the book.)
- In high school I received the National Council of Teachers of English award in writing for my short story “Keep Your Feet on the Ground, Professor.”
- I started having children when most of my peers were preparing for grandkids.
- Floods in Brownwood, Texas and Louisiana, Missouri contributed to a slight phobia of that kind of natural disaster.
- My older brother and I once rode every roller coaster at the Six Flags park in Georgia.
- My favorite part of Sunbeams mission group when I was a preschooler was the graham crackers and kool-aid.
- I met my blushing bride at missionary orientation—she was going to Egypt, and I to Ukraine. We married eight months later.
And now for the cheat: I’m going to tag Hannah, Josh, Danny, and you if you’re reading this (that may get up to eight).
