Here are the ever-so-simple rules:
- Link to the person who tagged you.
- Post the rules on your blog.
- Write 6 random things about yourself.
- Tag 6 people at the end of your post.
- Let each person know he/she has been tagged.
- Let the tagger know when your entry is up.
Six rules. Six things about myself.
1. I am addicted to talk radio. It started when I was a full-time stay-at-home-mom and I think just needed to hear adult voices around me. The stations have changed over the years as I become bored with one & move on to another, but it's still a geeky addiction that I love.
2. I was an L.A. Gear shoe model for one whole weekend. Of course this was when I was a freshman in college, 103 pounds and had size 5 1/2 feet (before pregnancies grew them to size 7). My friend & I wore little black leotards, cut off t-shirts, huge hair & had to perform an aerobic dance type thing every hour at a shoe convention. It's ok to laugh. I thought I was oh so cool at the time & earned $200 and 5 free pairs of shoes! Of course only 3 of the pairs were ever delivered & I'm still a bit bitter about that.
3. I like the smell of "distant skunk" as I call it. Not fresh road-kill skunk or skunk spray in your back yard, but the hint of skunk in the air as you drive down the road is enjoyable to me. My family is totally baffled by this oddity & enjoy making fun of me whenever "distant skunk" lingers in the air. I can hardly believe I just admitted to it actually.
4. I love High School Musical movies & can't wait for the new one. I know mom's are supposed to hate them, but I love them. The sad part is, Kendall & Jenna have both made plans to see it with friends so I may be going alone. What a pitiful sight that will be.
5. I tear up at some point during almost every movie. I hate it. It's embarrassing. It's not normal to cry during cartoons. Although there are times that I think something's wrong with my kids when they don't cry, like during "Eight Below". You can't be human & not practically sob during that one.
6. The smell of wool clothing makes me nauseous. I can often be seen smelling sweaters at the mall to see if they contain wool because I absolutely cannot wear them if I can detect it. Ick. My stomach churns just thinking about it.
Now I'm supposed to "tag" 6 people, but I don't know that many bloggers so I'm tagging just a few. I spent a ton of time doing this, so you guys better do it too. :)

I think I have to comment on this entire blog. This was an AWESOME list, Deb.
1. I enjoy talk radio. I'm usually an iPod girl but when the ipod is dead, I put on talk radio. There's not a lot of radio music I like much and talk radio is interesting. It's a getting old thing, isn't it.
2. LA Gear. - WAY cool. I never knew that. You realize this makes you "sorta famous" in my eyes. From now on, if I'm looking at your with stars in my eyes at Christmas, you'll know why.
3. Distant skunk - actually...I can understand this a bit. Its' like gasoline - gasoline up your nose as a whole is not pleasant - but a hint of gasoline on your hands - LOVE that smell.
4. I will go to HSM 3 with you. Honestly - I think I'm even more excited than Ari. It's a bit ridiculous. So if you can't find anyone to go with, let me know. We'll SO go. Troy is dreamy and I'm not ashamed to admit it.
5. Tearing up - not every movie but yes..most. And some commercials depending on the time of the month. And your'e right....8 Below should make anyone cry.
6. Wool - I just find it a bit scratchy myself.
Awesome, awesome post Deb. I loved it (since I just wrote a Blog about it in your comment section, I believe it is apparent how much I loved it).
Is there a time limit as to when I respond? wow, you took the effort to really come up with some good stuff.
I may have to wait till Saturday morning to fill it in!
Kerri, yes you may have until Saturday. Guess what! There is a present coming your way this weekend! Finally!! :D
Yes, this is random: if you put a poll on your blog, I'll vote! I may be the only one, but yeah, I still will!
so make a poll and give it one more try!
I LOVE 8 below...I cried too
Yeah, how in the world did your kids NOT cry at that movie? If I think about it I want to cry.
The 60 year old man next to us was shaking with sobs...
Okay Deb...I did it! I cheated a little, but I think I stayed true to the spirit of the tag.
