Just the facts, sir.

As punishment for accidentally calling her huge, Tish has tagged me with this meme where I’m obligated to reveal eight random facts about myself. For a private person like me that’s not necessarily on my list of favorite things to do, but we’ll see what I can come up with ;)

  1. When I have pets I tend to give them odd names. I once had a German Shepherd named Herschel and a kitten named Enrique.
  2. I’m a terrible fidget and have a hard time sitting still. At the very least I’m usually tapping my foot.
  3. I constantly have melodies bouncing around in my head. So much in fact that I often can’t sleep until I whip out my keyboard and record the notes, just to get them out of my head. Sometimes I even hum them when I’m in the shower.
  4. When I was in kindergarten we had a classroom that had its own little bathroom. I peed on the floor in the bathroom and some poor little girl slipped on it and fell. I of course blamed it on some other kid in the class. In my defense I was just a little boy. I didn’t do it on purpose. I just had horrible aim back then.
  5. I suck at finishing things. I have a bazillion unfinished pieces of music for example. I start one, get about half way though it, get bored and then start another one. It’s an endless cycle.
  6. I once had a horribly embarrassing sledding accident as a kid. I never went sledding again.
  7. I haven’t always had really long hair. In grade school I had a bowl cut. It was only natural that I rebel and grow my hair long after the humiliation of having a bowl cut for years.
  8. I’m scared to death of spiders. I turn into a girly little pansy whenever I’m confronted by one. I also think all spiders are huge no matter how small they are.

Now I suppose I have to tag others for this as well. I tag Mark, Maria and Christy.

    *LOL*
    I love the rollover text, Mike. ;)
    I laughed out loud at a few of your facts. Especially the one about peeing in the bathroom floor. Oh, and the bowl cut is hilarious too! hehehe. I can picture it now!
    Thanks so much for taking your punishment like a man! ;) Mwah.

    I thought you might like that :P

    The bowl cut made me look like a total dweeb :(

    Oh man, you’re brave to open up like that. I was just going to make stuff up to keep from telling the truth. :)
    But please know this: as one man to another, I hope your aim has improved! If not, may I suggest those little floaty boats that you can use as target practice in the toilet? (No kidding, I’ve really seen those.)

    It was the least I could do after calling Tish huge :P

    Oh yes it’s improved quite a bit since then. Although it might be fun to use some of the floaty thingies just for the heck of it ;)

    Hi Mike,

    You called a girl huge? You peed on the floor? That’s terrible, lol! Now if she called you huge it probably would have been okay. Okay gotta go, drinking and typing don’t mix, lol. (Not that I’m drunk or peeing on the floor or anything) Did you just call me huge? (I must be hearing things)

    It probably would have been more accurate :P
