I was tagged by my friend Amber to list seven random things about me that most people probably don't know. So, let's see how well I do. Let me know how many of these things you didn't know about me. Here goes....

1. I have never had a cavity in my life. Therefore, I love going to the dentist. Without root canals and drilling, and getting told what great teeth I have, sitting in that dentist chair is quite enjoyable. For me.

2. There are only TWO people (and you know who you are) who have ever seen me clog, outside of John, in my adult life. Yes, it takes a lot for me to get up and start clogging away....I'm not above bribes. But mostly it's because sheer exhaustion does take over. That clogging is tougher than I remember on the ol' cardio system.

3. I must put on Mentha-Shine chapstick before going to bed every single night.

It didn't say seven interesting things, did it? No? Okay, I'll keep going then.....

4. I can spot mispelled words just like THAT (that was me snapping my fingers). It does come in handy, but it can also be annoying, because once I spot a mispelled word, it really bothers me. Does it bother you? (You can answer yes to this question if you spotted the misspelled word in the previous two sentences and couldn't really concentrate after that. I misspelled "misspelled" on purpose.Two "s's", not one.)

5. I REALLY enjoy getting the mail each day. I mean, REALLY. Even if I'm so sick I can hardly get out of bed, I can't stop thinking about getting the mail. And when I hear that telltale squeeeeaaaakkkk of the mail truck, forgetaboutit. I'm already down the driveway. And it's not that I even get that much mail, personally, but I do enjoy the magazines, circulars, and the ocassional note. (Oh. There it is again. Did you catch it? Occasional was misspelled. A tricky one.)

6. I cannot, and do not, sleep with a sheet. (Like a top sheet. Of course I sleep ON a sheet.) I can't stand them. They are too cold and harsh, not at all soft, and are not warm and cozy. I have to sleep with a blanket against me. And if you have visited our house, you know exactly why that is.

7. I have not always had curly hair. When I was in elementary school, it was straight, then went curly again on me in middle school, where I used to iron in straight, so great was my hatred for my curly hair. (I have since learned to embrace the curly-haired me, and we get along quite well now.)

So, here are the rules: Link your tagger and list these rules on your blog; tell seven random facts about yourself on your blog; tag seven people at the end and link their blogs; let them know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.

So, TAG! You're it:

Ashley
Liz
Candace
ReNee
Gina
Christina
Desta

Enjoy! I'm off to get the mail.....

Hi! Thanks for tagging me. I see that you can't find me on facebook? Liz Spreter Davies. I'll look for YOU :)

I haven't ever had a cavity either! (Knock on wood!)

You should try flannel sheets or 100% cotton...they are so great...not scratchy!

MEGAN RESPONDS: I would love flannel sheets, but John would never be able to sleep - he would get too hot! (I know better than to even bring it up.) :)

[Desta]

Have you ever tried really high thread count sheets? They are amazingly soft, super duper soft! Brian won't use any other sheets than that- and though I used to not care- now I can't sleep using any other sheet either! Like Jill said- really good flannel sheets are fab also- especially in winter!

MEGAN RESPONDS: Yes, we have high thread count sheets on our bed currently, but they are still not soft enough for me to use a top sheet. ;)

No cavities here either. :) It's interesting the things you find out about someone from their blog that you might not ever find out in a face-to-face conversation!
