Versatility

Gaylene at {unwritten} recently gave me this lovely award:



Thanks, Gaylene!

For the award, I'm supposed to tell you 7 Things About Me. Obviously, these are probably not the 7 most important things about me. I hope!

1. I'm out of practice, but I used to be pretty good at belly dancing.

2. I get terrible Charley horses in my feet unless I drink Gatorade at least every other day.

3. I've since lost it, but my original accent was a strong Southern accent.

4. I am related (both by blood and marriage) to more statisticians than you want to know about.

5. I like to bake and with the severe food allergies in our family, I've gotten really good at modifying recipes.

6. My first job was as a florist, but my favorite job title (although not necessarily my favorite job) was "tracker." I won't tell you what I did, because that would remove all the mystery and glamour from the job.

7. I'm really good with spacial things like packing. I once packed so much stuff into my suitcase that it weighed 48 kilograms (that's about 105 lbs--obviously this was before the weight restrictions). And, no, there were no weights or rocks or anything like that packed inside. I carried it through the London underground and several nice chaps offered to help. I warned them all it was was very heavy. They didn't believe me. And then as soon as they reached a landing, they dropped it and practically ran away. I tried hard not to laugh.

I would like to pass this award along to Emily at The Yellow Wallpaper. She hasn't been blogging long, but she's kept me very entertained. So go stop by and say hi.

Have a fantastic day!
