the meme

So I got tagged (by bb), which I do absolutely love because I don't even have to think of something to write that day. Could it get better then that?

The rules:

Each participant posts eight facts about themselves. Taggees should write a blog post of eight random facts about themselves. At the end of the post eight more bloggers are tagged. Go to their blogs. Leave a comment telling them they're tagged.

See, I don't know about the tagging eight more bloggers, do eight people even read my blog? If you want to do it, just do and let me know my leaving a note in comments... I want to know your eight random facts too!

Here they are (in no particular order)....

1. I wish I had glasses sometimes. A pair of tortise frames in a pretty classic shape. I just feel like I could put them on and instantly begin working on homework or writing a novel or something... I feed this desire by having many pairs of tortise sunglassses, but it's just not the same. I'm even thinging about having plain plastic frames made, is that taking this too far?

2. I've gained 10-15 pounds since high school. That's only four years ago, so prettty much four pounds per year. Oh, and it hasn't ALL gone to my boobs, actually probably none of it has. I'm still thin-ish, so I"m not complaining that much but come on, I have no reason to be heavier. I eat pretty healthy already, now I just need to know how to hardcore diet, but is that even necessary yet?

3. I've (mostly) stopped drinking coffee. I didn't like the jitters and anxiousness that often accomanied it for me. However, I have started drinking more Diet Coke, so maybe this is just changing from one poison to another. If I do order coffee I usually get a tall (small) or decaf latte. Cause you can't expect me to kick the Starbucks habit that quick, right?

4. I hate ridiculous abreviations whilst text messaging. I'm not a huge text messager at all but if you care sent me ttyl or thanx or any of that crap, don't expect a response.

5. You know those sleepy eye patches that people use on the plane? They are a saving grace for me. It helps me sleep past 10, which is necessary in the college lifestyle. Also, when the boy pushes the snooze button a MILLION times in the morning (I'm going to have to put a stop to that) it's the only way I can fall back asleep. I don't thinks it's just the darkness but also the pressure on my forehead (relaxing) and familiarity of it all.

6. I've started to use an old (okay, so it's not really old but an unused) LeSportsac bag for groceries. Not only does it look pretty cute, but I'm not wasting bags (don't worry we saved the bags, but we already have SO many). Oh, and like bb did when I met her, I am using no (or fewer) small produce bags, genius.

7. Sometimes (like maybe once every two weeks) I watch General Hospital. It's a deep dark, embaressing secret... don't you dare tell.

8. My skin is becoming frustrating due to the hot and sticky weather. My usual cleansor just isn't cutting the mustard. Trying to put on makeup and then praying that it won't melt at the park or beach or something is just getting ridiculous. I'm now reduced to only using my MAC compact during the day and putting on more (mascara, brown eyeliner, bronzer all by MAC) at night when I go out. I just hope that people don't seen me during the day with the kids...
