Seven Things Tag!

Robin of Seasons Eating Farm has tagged me. If not replying causes dire consequences, I guess I’d better not risk it. I can foresee vet bills, frozen buckets of water, and gadzooks, even MORE guineas wandering around. (The Farmer is trying to see how many we can raise…. don’t even ask how much feed they’re consuming!)

The idea is to post seven little known weird facts about yourself. Hey, everything about me is weird! How am I supposed to choose a measly seven????

Okay, here are the first things that come to mind:

1. Hyperfocusing is my modus operandi. Thank A.D.D. for that.
2. My parrot thinks I’m her mate or her mother, Im not sure which.
3. I like to watch anime and play VGA Planets (blame my boys).
4. When I was a little kid I used to have a pet turkey that followed me around.
5. My living room has items in it from not only the US, but stuff friends have sent me from Canada, China, Japan, Kuwait, England, and various counties in Africa. My favorites are an original painting of a Tuareg dwelling in the desert (the Tuareg are a nomadic people in northern Africa) and a picture worked in leather of a shepherdess and sheep in Mongolia.
6. I used to work in greenhouses in Pennsylvania, raising Poinsettias. During the day I helped with the plants. At night I stoked the furances with coal.
7. I once sewed up a tuxedo with tails, using black denim to make a working outfit for a chimney sweep. The top hat was bought seperately however!

I’ll even throw in a bonus fact – I am hopelessly geographically challenged and directionally impaired. As the saying goes, I couldn’t find my way out of a paper bag.

If there's anyone out there reading this that hasn't been tagged already, "Tag! You're it!"
