The rules are as follows: (1)Link to the person that tagged you. (2)Post the rules on your blog. (3)Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself. (4)Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs. (5)Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website. [I feel like there should be six rules].
A
1. Anthropomorphism in cartoons fascinates me. Why does Diego rescue animals, yet Boots' father is an architect? The Berenstain Bears have a pet dog - how does that work?
2. I am a space geek. I can recite every word in Apollo 13 and have the From the Earth to the Moon Box Set. In college, I took Astronomy I and II for my Physics requirement. I will watch any space documentary on The History Channel, The Science Channel, NOVA, The Discovery Channel, etc.
3. I love disaster movies. My all time favorite is The Towering Inferno but also love Independence Day. I saw both Dante's Peak and Volcano at the movies.
4.
5. I have a freakish memory for trivia. So much so that I am teaming with my 12 and 8 year old nieces in a competition at their school during Catholic Schools Week. I guess we'll see if I really am smarter than a 5th grader.
6. I used to be very organized. I still try with varying degrees of success. I have most of the boys' toys in 12x12 bins from Target. Each with printed labels with a picture of the item(s) and their name (e.g., Fisher Price Little People) afixed to the outside. Don't be impressed, it doesn't work.
Now to share the horror. I am tagging Denise at real. life. ramblings. because I think she and I were separated at birth. I'm tagging Merlot Mom because I think she and I could sit down and have a glass of wine together. I'm tagging Jen because I've had many, many glasses of wine with her. Helena gets it because I envy her creativity and her taste in wine. I'm sending this to Sarah at In the Trenches of Mommyhood because it's fun to think we might actually meet over a glass of wine when Bossy comes to town on her roadtrip. And last, I tag Bossy because she is my idol and because if I'm going to assume her identity one day, I need to know the minutia too. I will buy her the wine.

Bossy is a dirty cheat, so she's offering her previously published Meme Poem in lieu of new facts, because... a meme? In Dr. Seuss rhyme? That's worth something, isn't it? And because there's not a thing else that's not already included.

Denise
Thanks for the tag!
Number three! Me, too! Towering Inferno is CLASSIC.
Have you seen the movie with Dennis Quaid...the one where the whole world is frozen? I can't remember the name, but I love that one. And Twister. I am all for disaster movies.
Another MA/New England mama here...
just found your blog today.
Congrats on paying off the truck loan!!
feel free to bring that organization skill right over to this house. There are boxes from the move 9 months ago that need some direction...
Phoenix, it's The Day After Tomorrow (stupid title) but a decent disaster flick. I also love Armageddon and Deep Impact. I love how disaster movies always come out in pairs.
I could go on and on...
