It’s easy though; I am to answer only 8 questions and then tag 8 other bloggers.

I know what you’re thinking; oh puh-leeeeze don’t let her tag me, oh please oh please “Oh how fun!” Right? Right? Yeah, that’s exactly what I was thinking when I got tagged. Again.

Here are the questions and my answers:

1. Why did you start blogging? I have always been full of it. Words, that is. Advice too. Ideas. Minutiae.

2. If you could travel anywhere in the world with no restriction of costs, where would it be and why? Everywhere.

3. Did you have a teacher in school that had a great influence on your life? If so, what? George Cuperis, for 3 years in Jr. High (in Calgary) he was a man of violent temper, and great passion, and the best music teacher I’ve ever had. I also had a number of excellent academic teachers in high school that stand out, and a couple Profs from College as well, but none made the lasting impression that Cuperis did.

4. If you could spend the day with a famous person, who would it be, and what would you do? David Suzuki. Brilliant, brilliant man. Geneticist by training, and even more importantly, a huge advocate for our natural world.

5. Toilet paper – over or under? Depends on the dispenser? Usually over.

6. Name one thing in your life that you would do over if possible. I would have gone through to be a veterinarian.

7. Tell about your pets – if any. Boo, the tiny black kitty, and Sadie, our mammoth Australian Shepherd. Boo was a normal shelter adoption as a 7 week old ball of black fluff, and Sadie was a rescue that we got when I was 5 months pregnant with Wee One – Sadie was 4 years old at the time. We’re her 5th and final family.

8. Do you live in a small town or a large town. (You don’t have to name the town.) Medium-and-growing-fast Town.

Now to tag my 8 victims…

• Bad mom
• ShaMoo
• Knarf
• J-B (but we all know he won’t do it!)
• Jade
• Annie (a reason to blog again, Annie!!)
• Tortuga
• JazzBumpa

Tagged? All you need to do is exactly what I did here – post this on your own blog, modifying the answers of course, and whatever else you see fit (don’t curse me!) and then link back to me and let me know so I can enjoy your answers too.

Don’t hate me.

Sensational Haiku Wednesday

Welcome to “Sensational Haiku Wednesday!”

Haiku is simple! It is 3 non-rhyming lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables respectively (a great way to use your fingers!)

Will you ever know
What lays just behind the smile?
You might be surprised

Divulging a truth
Serious consequences
Best undiscovered

Suspect awareness
Buried within the darkness
Lies a quiet need

I’m out of town this week – I will visit when I get back!
