Eight Facts

So looks like I got tagged by MJ, so let's give this a whirl.

First, the rules, always with the rules:
1. We have to post these rules before we give you the facts.
2. Players start with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
3. People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
4. At the end of your blog post, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
5. Don’t forget to leave them each a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.


Hmmmmm.

1. FACT: I have no short term memory. Now I am not talking Memento or anything but but things slip my mind. Whether it's my ADD or I am just absent minded (both I think) but I forget stuff, like cutting my nails or paying bills, posting here and the like. I'm not procrastinating, I just don't think about it.

2. FACT: I'm a gamer. I love games and gaming of all kinds. Card, collectible, board and oh yes, computer. I was actually a play tester and demo team member for a popular collectible card game several years back. I always have at least 3-4 games installed on my machine at a given time, and a stack of discs waiting to be played. Just bought Scene-It and Guitar Hero 2. Free time? What free time?

3. FACT: I have an addictive personality. I can easily get lost in something, whether smoking, drinking, gaming etc. Fortunately I have given up smoking, rarely drink...gaming...well, oh well. I have shortened my vice list considerably.

4. HABIT: When checking out at the grocery store, I tend to keep everything grouped as I put them on the little conveyor belt. Frozens together, dairy, meat, produce, dry goods. I have no flipping idea why, but I do it, nay, have to. Unless I am with Shannon then it doesn;t matter but by myself, that is how it is done.

5. FACT: I have some form of social anxiety I think. Going to new places freaks me out, no matter even if I really want to be there. And it is next to impossible for me to eat out at restaurants. I need to call a shrink, because I want to change, but see #1.

6. HABIT: I am a cluttery person by nature. I set down letters, papers, CDs, magazines and what not on my desk. Over time nice stacks build up, and about every 2-3 months, I need to have a grand sorting day and get rid of it.

7. FACT: I love food, and love cooking. I wish I could do more fancy cooking but time, money and children do not always allow this. I love making chocolate truffles, and am rather well known for them within circles of family and work. I also enjoy grilling and am starting to get into true BBQ. Really need to fire up the smoker.

8. FACT: I rarely listen to the radio anymore, so am hopelessly out of date, but love music. I listen to my mp3s on my computer and so am stuck in the past I suppose. However did just pick up the new White Stripes, which kicks much ass and I recommend.

There we go. 8 things about me. I suck at these, because I can never think of anything, so it takes me a hundred years to finish.

I know I am supposed to tag 8 people, but I'll be honest, I don't have 8 to tag that haven't already. If you want to do this, by all means, do it and let me know in the comments.
