TAGGED!

I've been wanting to post something, for a few days, but aside from "The crazy stalker hasn't gotten me yet!" I haven't had anything exciting to tell you about...except that now I've been tagged--So, here are the rules:

1. The player lists 6 facts/habits about themselves.

2. At the end of the post, the player tags 6 people and posts their names, and then goes to their blog and leaves them a comment, letting them know they have been tagged and asking them to read your blog for the rules.

Here we go:
1- I Don't have a middle name. And when I was younger and we went bowling, I'd use the letter O as my middle initial to fill the 3 spaces--it makes a word, and I guess that word makes me vain.

2-My uncle is Mel Gibson.

3-I am currently enrolled in 3 Special Ed classes. As a student. That really doesnt make me sound very smart.

4-I am fairly paranoid. I blame a teacher I had when I was like 10 who told me about all the things a particular stalker does to his victims--horrifying. I've been doing a lot better lately...and even when I'm not doing so well, I've gotten a lot better at hiding it... ;-)

5-I talk to my car. She has a name. And a few nicknames. I think that if I'm nice to her, she'll be nice to me. And it's worked so far.

6-I have a dream that one day I will have a lot of money. Not because I want a big house, or lots of expensive toys, but because there are a few things I want to do. I'm really poor right now, but one day I want to be able to say "dont worry about the bill, it's on me" regularly. Just once I want to be able to say "hey, I' m taking a cruise to Alaska--you wanna come? It's already paid for" or "I am going to Africa, but I dont want to go alone, so I bought an extra ticket--will you please join me?" I will take working/service vacations and go to New Zealand and build a house like my sister did, or work in an orphanage in Austria for a month, or help teach Brazilians how to set up a school. I want to do everything and see everywhere--and while I know that will never happen (at least not in this life), but I want to do as much of it as I can.

And since everyone I know in the blogging world has already been tagged, I am going to break the chain...I will probably remain "It" indefinately, but maybe one day I will decide to pass it on...after this post is long forgotten, or I've made more friends. On second thought, I do know someone who just started a blog, and this would be a great entry to get her going, so Val--you're IT!!!

Wait a minute, Heather. You can't drop the Mel bomb without some explanation. What's the story behind this? Come on, dish.

(Oh, and about your #6, I totally want that for myself as well).

Ok, so it was a trick...I mean, Mel IS my uncle, but he's not "the" Mel. ;-)

And I'm gonna add another person to my tagging--KATIE!!!
Dear Katie,
You've been tagged. Face the facts--that you must now put a post on your blog. Share your life with the rest of us! You are interesting. You are funny, and we all want to her from you.
Love,
Heather

...So...I just read my letter to Katie, and it's pretty bad...sorry-I dont even have an excuse for it. I'm just that bad at english. But that doesnt make the letter any less honest. We do want to HEAR (sorry for yelling that, I wanted to make sure people know that's what I was trying to say in the letter...) from you Katie. And if you dont believe me, I'll make a poll about it.

Number 6 is my dream too! I can't wait to get my WB and we can all fly to Italy for gellato whenever we feel like it. It will be on me, well, on him.

I completely agree with naming your car...they respond so much better...

As for that middle name...you could end up with the initials: BMW
