2. Share 7 things about yourself
3. Award 15 recently discovered bloggers
4. Contact these bloggers and tell them about the award
1 and 2, I can do. I always break chain letters, end email chains, I'm a party pooper, I know. I guess that's a freebie fact about me.
1. I have a tattoo that I've been meaning to have embellished, but haven't done so because I can't stand to sit still for that long. I mean, seriously sit still -- you're not supposed to heavily sweat for 4-6 weeks after going under the needles or you'll bleed out the ink. It's probably just as well because I'd probably have covered my back by now.
2. Speaking of heavily sweating, I still have yet to complete a marathon without crying like a little girl.
3. Peggy is my favorite Mad Men character. Everyone seems to love Joan (and I don't deny that she's gorgeous), but every time Peggy is featured on that show, I think "there's my girl!" I bought some black check buffalo plaid to make a shirt inspired by this dress that she wore in a few episodes of (I think) Season 2. Then I cut the fabric off-grain.
4. I have a hard time concentrating without some music in the background.
5. I used to joke that if I could get paid to sleep, I would accept the position. And then I found out what happens to people who do those paid sleep studies. And I haven't joked about getting paid to sleep since then.
6. I am not on the cutting edge of technology. I finally joined the 21st century by getting a text plan this summer. Now I don't know how I ever spent so much time talking into my phone.
7. That said, I am a veteran Mac user. I have two at home, and my last two employers provided me one of my choice so that any given time I had three Macs. At my current job I have a PC and am having a hell of a time trying to figure out how to get anything done.
