Well I was tagged days ago by Patrick to drop seven random facts about me. It’s convenient that today is the Day of Sevens, so my tardiness actually seemed to work out pretty well.
- I throw six pitches with a stress ball: Fastball, slider, changeup, split-finger, curveball, and a knuckleball.
- I played World of Warcraft for about two days. Unlike most of the free world, I didn’t get hooked.
- My first website had black text on a lime background with a red scrolling marquee that read “The Ultimate Windows Launchpad” in Times New Roman. It was created in FrontPage Express, which I at the time lambasted for using “strong” and “em” to bold and italicize, respectively. Eight years later, it turns out FrontPage Express was more semantically correct than its now-discontinued commercial counterpart, and I today use “strong” and “em” like nobody’s business.
- I first got into listening to rock music when I was in 7th grade at a Stingrays hockey game. It was the beginning of the third period when these dramatic pianos came over the PA, followed by a thundering bass riff or two. I spent a long time trying to figure out who that was. It ended up being Van Halen. Obsession: born.
- I listen to songs repeatedly for hours at a time. I’m very famous for this. I try to grow out of it, but you know, it’s very difficult to do. I can’t avoid getting on a “kick.”
- Every girl that I have had even a remote romantic encounter with, I’ve first talked to over the Internet.
- I am quite the procrastinator, hence why this will get submitted at 11:59. LOL.
So who are the lucky seven being tagged? How about…
- Joan
- Phil
- Heather
- Chuck
- Chris
- (Notoriously Nice) Mike
- Jason (maybe he can share 7 facts about the S.C. Photography Guild?)
If you’re tagged, fill out seven facts about yourself and tag seven more. Leave comments on the tagged blogs letting them know. Otherwise, like, you’ll get bad luck or something.
