OK - I'll bite too! Danielle "tagged" me to write 8 random things about myself. Here it goes!
1) I went to Northside Christian all the way through school. (Northside is a big Baptist church that has a school. ) Anyway, late one night during my Senior year, my sister, one of our friends and I went swimming in the baptistery.
2) I accidentally gave my friend Rose an overdose of Dramamine while on a cruise in Hawaii. We both were pretty stoned (not able to finish sentences, walking into walls, not able to focus on things more then a few feet away, etc). Our husbands had take us back to our rooms and put us to bed.
3) On the way home from college, I missed the exit for I-77 and drove 90 miles out of my way.
4) Chauncey Bush, the founder of Bush Beans, is my Great Uncle. Jay Bush, the guy in the commercials, is my 2nd cousin. (Note: I have never met Jay nor his dog Duke and I am not an heir to the Bush fortune.)
5) For our 7th birthday, my parents bought ONE pair of rollerskates for Danielle and me to share. This (for obvious reasons) is NOT a good thing to share! I remember skating around the kitchen wearing the right skate and Danielle wearing the left.
6) Adam took me to play putt-putt on our first date. I was so bad that he started missing on purpose so I would not feel like a loser.
7) My younger sister, Lydia, was a model and had her picture in a teen magazine (I don't remember which one it was - "Seventeen" maybe???)
8) In the middle of a heated discussion with my 4 year old sister, I came up with the mother-of-all cut-downs and said, "You're ugly!" Mom had to explain that that was not the most logical insult to call my identical twin sister.
OK now I'll tag Rose because she is the only one of my friends with a blog.

Ha! ha! I forgot about those skates... I think they were Starwars, which means that Mom found them on sale somewhere... I don't know that we had heard of Starwars before we got those skates. That's hilarious - the thought had never occured to me that giving us 1 pair of skates to share wasn't a good idea.
