They Threw a Stick at Me

My darling friends in Germany sent me an email way back <wait, let me look….> on March 26th (!) to which I am finally now responding.  They lovingly referred to it “like a chain letter for bloggers.”  Nice…  

But, what the hell, I’ll play along, mostly because they are nice.  :-) 

In Germany it’s called throwing a little stick.  The rules for this little stick they threw at me are:

1.  Put a link to the person who threw the stick at you.  [see above]

2.  Mention the corresponding rules in your blog.  [doing that now]

3.  Tell everyone six unimportant things/habits/obsessions about you.  [posted below]

4.  Pass this stick to six other bloggers by linking them.  [will do that after I do number 3]

5.  Leave a comment at each person you choose to inform them that they are tagged.  [will do that later]

 

Okay, how many?  Six?  Hmmm….  let’s see….  I’m going to use unimportant as the key word here…

1.  At approximately 3:30pm every work day I must have caffeine and chocolate.

2.  I hate wearing layers.

3.  I am obsessed with keeping my fridge/freezer neat.  (All labels facing forward please.)

4.  I wear flip-flops for about 4 months straight in the summer.

5.  I’m the only person I know that still buys music CDs at the store.

6.  My favorite kind of weather is when it gets really dark right before a big storm.

Will tag some of my friends already linked here - will go leave them a comment now.

Have a great weekend!!

To Do Tattoo

To Do Tattoo

The perfect solution for your shoddy short-term memory.

Here’s a tongue-in-cheek tribute to anyone who’s ever scribbled a reminder on their hand or wrist. Err, that would be about everybody, right? Our To-Do Tattoo kit includes 12 graphic “To Do” forms that you can apply to your body wherever it’s most convenient (or creative) and a skin-safe, washable-ink gel pen. You’ll never again have to make lame excuses for missing bowling night or your mom’s birthday. Nifty peggable blistercard packaging.

Watching

The Ninth Gate

Eh, it was okay.  I wouldn’t say I loved it, but it was entertaining.  The fight scenes were definitely humorous (unintentionally so) but the story was interesting.

Recently watched these two movies and loved them both.  Highly recommend.
