Eight things about me (Heather)

by RookieMom Heather on October 1, 2007

Whitney has tagged me to join in the 8 Random Facts About Me meme. Well, not really but I wanna play too.

First, the Rules:

1) Post these rules before you give your facts

2) List 8 random facts about yourself

3) At the end of your post, choose (tag) 8 people and list their names, linking to them

4) Leave a comment on their blog, letting them know they’ve been tagged

And now… my facts:

I have been living in the Bay Area for 10 years now. I thought for sure I’d be gone after four.
I hate mangoes. Hate all stone fruits. Ick. Must have been all those canned peaches I was offered as a little girl. But I make sure that Holden eats lots of good fresh California fruit and doesn’t share my aversion.
I am co-writing a book, due out in April 2008. I can hardly wait to see and feel the weight of it.
I love to have my toenails painted but I hate to have my fingernails painted.
I don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.
Breakfast is my favorite meal to eat out at a restaurant. As a mom, I like to get there right at 8am and beat the crowds, celebrating my status as an early riser.
I can’t dive in a swimming pool. I’ve always been afraid to learn.
So far, I’ve only not been pregnant or nursing for six weeks of my marriage. Yikes.

And I tag you:

SusieJ October 2, 2007 at 10:07 am: a book?!! Wow. I hate to get into the pool — because it always feels too cold. Yes, why bother with the fingernail, when, as a Mom, they’ll be chipped by noon anyway. I’m thinking about mine. Thanks.
Lawyer Mama October 2, 2007 at 11:29 am: I have the mother of all meme posts coming up, so I’ll add you in. And DUDE!! You have a Holden too????? Awesome name. You have fabulous taste!
mamatulip October 2, 2007 at 1:56 pm: I’m with you on number four, but that’s probably because I bite my nails. And polish don’t taste so good.

VERY COOL about co-authoring a book! That’s awesome!

I’ll link back to this post when I think of 8 things about me that a) I haven’t already said and b) aren’t totally boring.
