Having ducked out for the weekend before she posted it, I missed Karen Hall tagging me for her Lighten Up Friday! meme. If it’s okay, I’ll tackle it now. Apparently, I need to give 5 silly facts about me. Here goes.
- I can do about a dozen regional or national accents including Mainer, Texan, Minnesotan, Brooklyn, Indian, Chinese, Russian, French, Italian, Scottish, Irish, English (several variants), German, Italian, Spanish, Jamaican, and Lord knows what else.
- Since getting married I must only sleep on my stomach since sleeping in any other position allows me to snore, eliciting an elbow in the ribs from Melanie.
- Before I was married (or dating Melanie) I used to eat Indian chicken tikka masala three or four times a week. Why mess with a good thing? But it seems married life requires a variety of spice.
- I have had a beard for six years without interruption and Melanie has never seen me without it (apart from photos, of course).
- My nickname in high school was “Stump.” In Navy ROTC it was “Spock.” In college it was “Bomi.” I believe at one time or another over the past six years I have blogged the meaning of those names. Can you find the explanations?
Okay, I tag anyone who feels like doing it, including Melanie, Jeff Miller, Thomas Peters, the “anonymous” blogger at Totally Catholic Youth Ministry, and Patrick Coffin.
