I got tagged!

I was tagged by Jen, so here we go:

The Rules: Link to the person that tagged you and post the rules on your blog. Share 5 random and/or weird facts about yourself on your blog. or Share the 5 top places on your “want to see or want to see again” list. or Share 5 things you never pictured being in your future when your were 25 years old. Tag a minimum of 5, maximum of 10 random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog. The tagees have a choice of which they want to do.

1. I was in the Navy for almost 5 yrs, which is where I met my wonderful husband, Rick.

2. Rick proposed to me while we were in Italy (the exact location has been disputed for over 20 years) He says it was on a train from Rome to Naples, I say it was under a street lamp not far from the train station in Naples. After 20 years, does it REALLY matter - fact is, there is no dispute that I said "Yes!!"

3. I was also in the flag corp in High School just like Jen and Robyn!! Who knew! I also played the flute in High School band. Holcombe Pryor was our band director, who lead very accomplished bands over the years. For those of you who may not know the significance, Holcombe's son (who graduated in my sister's class) is Bill Pryor, 11th Circuit Federal Judge (my brush with "fame"). I thought the lawyers in my circles would know him, anyway!!!

4. I LOVED softball as a kid and always have!!! I played 8 years as a child and 2-3 years since Rick and I have been married. My back issues have forced me out of the game, but I still ache to be back on the field. It was not until I came to Montgomery that I was exposed to fast-pitch!!! Man, that would have been fun to learn to play!!!!

5. I claim to be a chocoholic, but my kids are not convinced. I can have chocolate in the house and not DEVOUR it, but.........when the craving HITS (and they always do!!) if my chocolate is not where I left it, I can be VERY difficult to pacify.

6. I love anything mechanical! In that respect, our marriage is reversed. I love to fix things and Rick LOVES to cook. I have replaced brakes, done tune-ups, replaced garbage disposals, a water heater, and completely gutted the sink/vanities in our old house and replace it all (starting at the pipe coming out of the wall, everything!!!) I love making things work!!

Ok, these were very weird, and very random. Enjoy. Trying to find someone in this loop who has not been tagged is tough, so let's try Rick, Cait, Brett and April, and......wait a minute, everyone else has been tagged!!!! Oh, well. I may have to e-mail the tag to other friends that have not joined the world of BLOG!!!!
