This seems like a good post to leave up over Memorial Day weekend, jic I don't get back until Tuesday. I probably will be back before then, but you never know.

1. I don't like to follow rules. (Notice how many of the above 6 rules I am following, lol.)

2. The only musical instrument I have ever had lessons on is... the accordian. I don't even like accordian music, but my Evil Sister's first fiance taught accordian part time and Evil Sis convinced my parents to support his financial needs by having me take lessons! Stupid Evil Sister!

3. I buy at least one new kind of hosta every year. This year I want to get a T. Rex.

4. I need a hair cut.

5. My mom put me up on figure skates when I was 2 years old (almost 3) and I had 10 years of formal lessons. I am not a good skater - no musicality and this white girl can't jump.

6. I have a whole drawer full of nice jewelery I rarely wear. What I do almost always wear is a pewter medallion on a thin leather strap that I found laying on the sidewalk back when Tom and I were first dating. This medallion feels "lucky" to me - so I wear it. It is a 3D cut-out of two Celtic-style fish and some seaweed, set in a circle.

I nominate whoever says "Me! Me!" in the comment section. (I don't like to linky people without asking and I feel too disorganized to go through a whole formal asking thing just now.)

Have a great Memorial Day weekend! Tom and I are going on a long, pointless drive to nowhere just for the fun of burning fossil fuel. How will those nice oil companies and commodity traders continue to rake in the Big Bucks without people like us going for long, meaningless drives?
