It's All About MeMe

I was tagged by Alwen to do a meme. Sounds like fun, but may take some thought. Here are the rules: 1. List 7 random things about yourself that people may not know. 2. Link the person who sent this to you, and leave a comment on their blog so that their readers can visit yours. 3. Post the rules on your blog. 4. Tag 7 random people at the end of your post, linking their blog. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog. (I hope I can find 7 Blogs!!!) Ok here goes:
1. I am a super-fast reader. If I am really into a book, I can read the whole thing in a matter of days. It was much easier to do this pre-children, but even now I whip through them.

2. I secretly love country music. Used to laugh at people who liked it and even make fun of them - but now I find myself moved to tears by some of the songs I hear.

3. I love photography and wish I had the time and money (and talent) to make it more of a hobby .

4. Related to #1 - If I really like a book by a certain author, I feel compelled to read every book that author has written. Some authors I have done this with are: Amy Tan, Madeline L'Engle (haven't gotten through all of hers, yet!) and now I am working on Jody Picoult. A new find for me and she should keep me busy for a while. She has a lot of books.

5. Hmmm.... this is tough. Let's see... I discovered the other day while watching a movie that it gives me the heebie jeebies to watch someone shave or be shaved . We saw "The Diving Bell and the Butterfly" yesterday and there is a scene in which a son shaves his elderly father and I literally had to turn my head away so I couldn't see it. Strange, I know.

6. Come on, I can think of 2 more. I love my kids' feet. I think they are the cutest.

7. I have an iPod finally, but I can never think of any music I want to put on it. Any suggestions?

OK, I'm done. How'd I do? Instead of tagging people, I'll let you tag yourselves. If you are reading this and you have the time and energy to do one, please do. Then let me know so I can read about how much more interesting you are than me.
