Awarded by gamene of the
bento zen fame, I hereby succumb to a semi-random selection of seven things about me.
1. I sleep very well when I sleep. When I am stressed out, I sleep walk. I have woken up in the morning with garden soil underneath my nails more than a few times.
2. I used to find really neat things when I was a kid like skeleton keys and pocket knives, so I always thought I was lucky.
3. In adult retrospect, turns out I was lucky because I was finding those things, and not other "things" that would be less desirable, in abandon houses and isolated areas of parks that I was exploring all by myself.
4. On a long hike along a ridge in the rain, I spotted a giant maple tree in full autumn color. Its trunk was covered with moss that looked like green feathers. It was so beautiful that I gave it a hug.
5. I've never been bitten by a tick, but I've pulled a number of them off my neck. (That's what you get for hugging trees.)
6. I have conducted the Pacific Ocean waves crashing onto the cliffs like an orchestra only to turn around to a crowd of onlookers who exploded into applause. I bowed.
And 7. I dance in the kitchen.
Those of you who want this fine award consider yourself tagged. I expect seven random things about you too.
