7 Random Things About Me

April 7, 2008 By Melanie Edwards 6 Comments

I’ve been tagged –

1stopmom has tagged me to share 7 random/weird things about myself and then tag 7 more people to do the same.

  1. I hate socks. I only wear them because I have to, but I take them off as soon as I can. And, I don’t recycle socks – if I wore them even for 5 minutes, they go into the hamper.
  2. I don’t drink coffee. I can’t stand the smell/taste. My coffee equivalent is chocolate milk. I looove chocolate milk!
  3. My husband and I met over the phone and talked for a year before we met in person.
  4. I’m Boricua.
  5. My daughter is TriniRican – I guess that’s not really about me, huh?
  6. I still like to listen to freestyle music – I’m old school like that. 😉
  7. I have a Second Life.
  8. I owe you all an extra (see #5 above) – I keep up with friends and family better online than via the phone. So, if you don’t have a FaceBook or MySpace account (or Twitter), you probably don’t hear from me as much as you’d like to. Sad, huh?

Now I get to tag 7 people to share their 7 random things:

  1. Mutha Mae from Word to your Mutha
  2. Jenny from The So Called Me
  3. My girl at Forever Always Weddings
  4. Super Mom in NY from Getting out of Debt
  5. Rae from Ramblings of a TV Whore

And I can’t think of any more folks, so you only get 5…

Join the fun if you’d like and leave a link to your post in the comments!
