6 random things plus link love, who can resist?

Yikes! I just realized that I promised to do a meme that Karen Sugarpants tagged me for OVER TWO WEEKS AGO. Dude. Talk about letting stuff get away from you.

I’ve done similar versions of this one but I can’t deny Karen, even if it means that I’m posting nearly three weeks after the fact.

Here’s the rules:

1. Link to the person who tagged you.
2. Post the rules on your blog.
3. Write six random things about yourself.
4. Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs.
5. Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.
6. Let your tagger know when your entry is up.

1. I watch Days of Our Lives. Not only do I watch it, I record it on our DVR so I don’t miss anything. I’ve been watching it since college. It’s my guilty pleasure and I don’t care if you think it’s stupid.

2. I have tunnel vision. I tend to get interested in something and focus exclusively on it and have difficulty diverting my attention to other things. If I try to multi-task, I get distracted and suddenly it’s like I have ADD and I’m flitting from one thing to the next desperately trying to remember what it was I was going to do first. I get more done when I have tunnel vision though because I focus until it’s DONE instead of chasing after the next—oh look! A kitten! What was I saying again?

3. I hate the Incredible Hulk. Always have. Always will.

4. This is the current animal count in our house. 3 dogs. 7 cats indoors (3 are kittens). 3 cats outdoors. 2 rabbits (outdoors). 11 fish. Oh and 1 stray cat who we don’t know where he belongs, but he comes round and pisses off our dogs and eats the outdoors cats’ food.

5. We recently watched Hairspray for the first time (I never got all the way through the Ricki Lake version) and I found myself identifying with the Edna Turnblad character. Yes. That would be John Travolta’s character that he played in drag and in a fat suit. Like Edna, there are times when I want to hide in my house because I don’t want anyone to see me so fat. Also, I loved her relationship with her husband and how he made her feel attractive.

6. My favorite tv show during the Summer is So You Think You Can Dance. I wish I could dance…

I’m tagging:

akaMonty because I adore her so.

Mommy Matters because Christine was one of the first bloggers I added to my blogroll and she really inspired me when I first began blogging. I’m so glad she’s gradually come back to blogging. I’ve missed her!

Chicka Nuts because Kris always entertains me with her randomness.

Color Me Complicated because it’s Miss Anne. There is no other explanation needed.

Does this mean I’m a grown up? because Catt has always been one of the funniest bloggers I know and even though she doesn’t blog as often as she used to, I’m hoping to get her to play along. Also, she’s on one of my teams at Sparkpeople.com

Simply Sassy who is not only sassy but extremely sweet.

    Hey, I hate the Hulk also! The Green man can kiss my ass! :p


  • Yvie says:

    Oh should I say, “Me three?” lol. I didn’t like the movie Hulk at all. I dunno how they’re gonna fix it this time. Heard Edward Norton’s gonna be the green guy.

    And oh. I also have to admit I did watch a lot of reruns of Days of Our Lives that one summer when I was in College. I don’t think you’re silly—’cause I got addicted to this too. :D
