I've Been Tagged!!
Lisa Mende, of the fantastic blog Lisa Mende Designs, tagged me in a fun blogging game. She tagged me and ten others. We have eleven questions to answer and then we tag another eleven.
1. If you could have coffee and chat with a famous person who would it be and what you want to chat about?
Tina Fey, and I would want to just sit, sip coffee, and listen. If Tina's not available, I'll go with David Sedaris.
Growing up, I could play a mean game of backyard football. With the boys.
3. What word(s) would you use to describe yourself?
My daughter, sitting here with me, insists I just say that I'm a Ravenclaw. She doubts if my readers are "awesome enough" to know what that means, but she says to tell you that if you do you get cool points. I won't tell her that I don't entirely know.

My book collection
part of it here in the family room

For all people to have the knowledge that the left lane is for passing
