seven things

Wow, my little baby blog has been tagged, and I'm finally following up on it. Thanks Susan!

So, seven true things about me.

1. I am a lazy perfectionist with a short attention span and an eye for detail. (Like my dear sister, I have a bit of a contradictory nature.)

2. My favorite snack food of late is New York Style Roasted Garlic Bagel Crisps.

3. I am a voracious reader and will sometimes be taken in by books I'd rather not admit to enjoying. A recent example of this is the Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer. As I read the first book, I marked the pages that contained the ultra-cheesiest lines so I could go back and crow about them. It's wildly popular with the teens, but it reads like a paperback romance and it's terribly edited. So why am I now reading the second book, wishing the whole time that the writing and characters were living up to their potential? I want to know what happens with all the teenage vampire and werewolf drama! Definitely going to have to read some Philip Roth or something after I shake this off.

4. I daydream pretty regularly about vacationing in the Caribbean.

5. I worry about getting cancer, having a heart attack, diabetes, and losing my husband. Perhaps because all of the above have been visited on our families in 2007.

6. The Last Unicorn has been my favorite movie since I was 3 years old.

7. I have new glasses, a new haircut, a new computer, and a new job!!

I was just telling Erin that you blog well. You post things that are of interest to others beside yourself, you provide links for things you reference, and you are a good writer. Good work, my friend. :)
