I’ve Been Tagged

I’ve been tagged thrice this week: first by Michelle from Leaving Excess, then by Lorelei from Hooray For Free-bates and by Niki from Free 2 Be Frugal.

Not sure what I’ve done to deserve the attention. ;-)

Anyway, I’m not overly excited about these things, but I like Lorelei and Michelle, so I’ll play along.

Here are the rules:
1. Link back to the person who tagged you
2. Mention the rules on your blog
3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours
4. Tag 6 bloggers by linking them
5. Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged.

Okay, here goes.

1. Based on peer pressure from several blogging friends, I’ve joined Twitter. Still not exactly sure what all the fuss is about, but please follow me so I don’t feel pathetic.

2. As a kid, I was a bit of an entrepreneur. I sold tickets to puppet shows, shiny rocks (only to doting grandparents, though), homemade pom-poms and offered a whole catalog of bookmarks I designed myself. My elementary school actually made a policy about selling stuff because my business was distracting my classmates.

3. I once worked at a country western-themed store in Northern Minnesota. How crazy is that?

4. I can’t stand the thought of bringing food into a public bathroom with me (like when you’re at a mall and you have a drink cup from the food court). It creeps me out.

5. My two favorite TV shows are Lost and Corner Gas. Can’t wait to see new episodes!

6. I won a $50 savings bond and a calculator in an essay contest in 9th grade. I compared my parents to Christopher Columbus. I still can’t believe it won.

Okay… Now it’s my turn to tag some people. I tag:
