Eight Random Facts (about me)
I complained that I didn’t get tagged in a while and it resulted in me getting tagged twice for this “Eight Random Facts” thing.
The Rules: “Each person posts the rules before their list, then they list 8 things about themselves. At the end of the post, that person tags and links to 8 other people and then visits those peoples’ sites and comments letting them know that they have been tagged, and to come read the post, so they know what they have to do.”
So here are my 8 very random facts:
1. I’m a geek (and that’s a fact)
2. When I was a kid I wanted to be a fighter jet pilot.
3. I don’t like escalators and elevators so I take the stairs as often as I can.
4. I am incredibly messy at home but perfectly organized on a computer. My co-workers are amazed at how efficiently I organize the massive amounts of info we work with. If clothes, cosmetics, and other household items were only bytes of data….
5. I hate paper but I love books. Yet I can’t read them on a computer screen. So I have a love, hate relationship with paper.
6. 80% of the time I carry a backpack with me. Same 80% of the time I have my gym clothes, 2 pairs of shoes and a sweater on me.
7. I believe being PC is obsolete and should be retired. We need a new formula for personal respect. How about we make the old formula the new formula called “respect.”
8. My desk at work is close to a small kitchen and there’s nothing worse than that! I am amazed at what people eat and at what times. And I get to smell it all. My least favorite? Most people guess fish, but no… It’s popcorn.
So that’s that.
I will only tag 2 blogs: Blogobeer and Johnny. Curious to see what’s your random 8.

Yes, totally random.Yet our universes are in some degree of alignment. I dreamed of being a fighter pilot too. But in the end I didn’t have the acuity of vision or the will to kill.
I really. really like your #7.
