I feel popular this week

Danielle of SEO is for Girls tagged me with the task of revealing seven facts about myself. I revealed eight a while back for Tish and now I must come up with seven more? Aye carumba! Breathe Mike, breathe. You can do this. Okay, here we go.

  1. I drink a LOT of raspberry flavored iced tea. This results in a large number of return trips throughout the day to the potty.
  2. I make a pretty darn good calzone. In fact I even wrote a recipe for my calzones called “Mike’s Kickass Calzone Recipe”. Unfortunately I cannot figure out where I saved it :(
  3. I despise shaving. It’s tedious. If it were still considered cool to look like the guys from ZZ Top there’s a good chance I might.
  4. I have very little cartilage in my left knee thanks to a nasty car accident when I was in high school. On some days the knee aches so much that I have to hobble around like a little old man.
  5. I’m obsessed with watching poker shows. ESPN, ESPN Classic, Travel Channel. Whatever channel they may be on I’ll find them and watch them. Repeatedly.
  6. I don’t like talking on the phone unless I really have to. Get me on the phone and I turn into a stuttering moron.
  7. I own two beanie babies. One is a cow named Daisy and the other is a teddy bear named Curly with a rather cool pair of rounded frame shades.

UPDATE: It just occurred to me I forgot to tag people…lol. Umm. If you’d like to reveal 7 facts about yourself, you’re tagged. There, that was easy :D

    I can understand the hating shaving – I hate brushing my hair. About the Beanie Babies though, just two? You need to get at least 100.

    See I knew I was going to enjoy reading this!

    Haha…well the two I have I was actually guilted into buying. I should probably blog about the story of how I ended up with them, some day :)

    Really? I don’t even know how to play poker! I’ve tried and tried but somehow the rules never stuck in my head. So weird.

    I could teach you :) I’ve been playing for a while now. I play quite a few different styles of it. The most popular right now though is of course Texas Holdem. That’s what they show most often on TV.

    LMAO at #1. I like peach ice tea though.

    I’d probably like that as well. Basically if it’s iced tea, I’ll drink it :P

    Your facts are interesting, entertaining as always, and most of all cool. :)

    I was thinking more corny than cool, but cool works for me :P

    2 beanie babies? One cow named Daisy and a teddy bear named Curly? How cute can you get?!!! I knew I tagged u right with huggable :) :)

    Hehe…I can’t take credit for the names of them. That’s what they came with :D

    Curly has sunglasses? Curly has been around for a long time. I think he was born around 1997 or so. But I’ve never seen him wearing sunglasses. I bet he looks cool in them! :)

    Daisy is cute too!
