“5 Interesting Factoids You Didn’t Know About Me”
1. I just had a heart attack b/c I thought my ex had found my blog.
2. I have lived in a town as small as 300.
3. I have taught in a high school where the freshman class was twice the size of the town of 300.
4. My favorite adult beverage is a Bloody Mary.
5. If money were no object, Scout and I would move to Chicago.
MomChatter also gave me blingity bling! So I will decorate my sidebar and pass this along.
The first one goes to Veronica because she’s just damn cool, and led her very own bf’ing controversy on her blog this week. (Did ya’ll know that bf’ing past 12 months is clearly sexual? After you pick yourself up off the floor from laughing your ass off you can go take a look. Oh, that commenter was Anonymous – they all are eh?)
The second goes to someone I’ve never actually talked to before – but she brought us all such joy this week, the every hysterical (and in keeping with this week’s theme, ironically) Boobs, Injuries and Dr. Pepper.
Go forth and spread thy bloggy lurve!
(Ten Steps for Creating Breast Health)
ps I owe out a shatload of emails – I was lazy on Thursday and I went to yoga on Friday – now that it’s the weekend I’ll get caught up – just didn’t want you to think I didn’t care – because I do – I care a LOT. While you are waiting to hear back from me, go check out cinnamon gurl’s post – all inspired by ME!

Thanks for dropping by my blog and saying ‘hi’!
I really enjoy the movie Down With Love, too. First time I saw it was (believe it or not) a rainy afternoon in Paris, so I ducked into a movie theatre on the Champs d’Lycee for a couple of hours. Very enjoyable. And, well, big soft spot for Ewen McGregor. (Moulin Rouge would be another favorite.)

The unused names are always fascinating. I’ve got the name Hugh tucked in my back pocket – but hubby always vetoed it.
