Stupidity is more common than you think...

I have been tagged...All because I left a comment on another blogger's site after they got tagged. Now-I could easily just ignore being tagged and say that I am not playing, but since I don't really have anything else to blog about today, I may as well play along.
Because I have been "tagged"...(and it was really more of a pity tag than anything else) I am required to reveal five things about myself that are not very well known. Of course, since mostly my family and a few friends read this blog...I doubt much of it will be a surprise.

1.) I used to eat Crisco as a child...straight out of the can...my family already knows this, and are still suitably horrified. Don't ask me why I did it, I am no longer sure, but I think it had something to do with texture. It certainly wasn't for the taste, and yes...it was something I did more than a few times.

2.) I have always perceived myself as a tough, athletic person able to defend myself and beat up anyone that gets in my way. Even though I am, in truth, an overweight and very UNathletic person who would lose in a fight with most ten year olds.

3.) Although I often come across as a very social and easy going person, I don't like social situations and I prefer not to engage in them. I dread getting together with adults outside of my family, and I find that social settings can easily induce panic in me.

4.) I was in two different bands as a young adult. We did original music, and a variety of genres. I sang, played guitar on a couple of songs, viola on a couple of songs, and bass on at least one song. I still miss being in a band.

5.) Okay...I had to think of at least one thing that nobody else would know. Here it is....
I have a second blog. Its not a public blog, and nobody has the address but me, so I doubt I will be getting many comments on it. Its about the quirky little things my kids do on a regular basis.

Now...I am going to tag 5 people like I am supposed to...but since some of them don't read this blog very often who knows if they will ever respond. But-if any of you do get tagged, and actually find out about it, at least you have something to blog about next time you need to. So Victorian Rhapsody and Dirty Dishes, Cornflake Girl, Alci65, Heididodah (I left the link to your blog off in case you want to keep that open only to people you know), and Quindy...you are it! Now you have to reveal five embarrassing or at least lesser known things about yourselves on your own blogs. Unless, of course, you choose not to participate.

You are a mean person!!! lol Crud, I don't know if I have 5 things to write about. By the way, I had NO clue about you and Crisco. I guess I know what to get you for Christmas. Do you prefer the tub or the bars? ;)

Actually-I am watching my fat intake...haha. So Crisco has not been on my list for about 25 years. And if I should get a craving (shudder) I can always just open the cupboard.

Ahhh! You Tagged me! How could you do that to me. The second person today! Not fair..
So I will just post it here then on YOUR blog. So YOU can read it.
1. I don't have a pet
2. We will not be getting any pets anytime soon.
3. I had a pet when I was a child, her name was Puddles. I also had a horse, but lots of people know that. Not my own Horse really, but I rode him and fed him and brushed him. His name was Moses.
4.Moses is not my favorite man in the Bible, (OT) It's Elijah.
5.However I would like to one day write a childrens book about the time Moses asked to see God's Face. Whith huge, beautiful pictures painted by my husband.
