What you don't know about me
Geez, time to lighten things up around here. My dear friend John in Germany (www.obscenedesserts.blogspot.com) "tagged" me recently to post on my own blog eight random things about myself that most people would not know about me. This is kind of a tough job, considering the source, as John knows a whole lot about me, and as it was his idea, I'd at least like to surprise him a little. He will probably know a couple of these anyway:
1. I rafted the Colorado River for a week through the Grand Canyon with my Dad.
2. I have visited at least 13 cemeteries in Paris.
3. I firmly believe that Michael Keaton was the sexiest Batman.
4. I read books written in French outloud to my dogs, and they seem to enjoy it.
5. I have spent the night in the Veuve-Clicquot Mansion in Reims, France (something most wine industry people would kill or die for, and with good reason).
6. Last summer, I taught actor Bill Pullman how to properly pick Maryland hardshell crabs.
7. I cried when I watched the funeral for the Crocodile Hunter.
8. At my (Catholic) high school graduation, the bishop of our diocese wore magenta robes. After the ceremony, I walked right up to him and said, "Hot pink is your color!"
So that's what I came up with. Feel free to leave your own eight in the comments!
