No one ever blog tags me. I kinda feel like the kid on the playground who doesn't get picked for teams. just kidding. I don't think I really want to be tagged, and if I were, I'm not sure I would really even do it. Anyway, my sister sent me this e-mail thing. And instead of forwarding it on to "10 people" before my grandmother's cat dies, I thought I'd just post it here since I'm kinda hard up for anything interesting to post anyway. So here goes. And just for the sake of seeing if other people are willing to do what I probably wouldn't....I tag Jen, Rebecca, Emily, Ellen, Rachel, and Nora.
