tagged...twice

okay, so two of my friends have tagged me for this meme game thing. i've put it off for long enough, so here it is!

the rules:
1: each player starts with 7 (8) random facts/habits about themselves.
2: people who are tagged write a blog post about their own 7 (8) random things, and post these rules.
3: at the end of your post you need to tag 7 (8) people and include their names.
4: don’t forget to leave them a comment and tell them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

my random things:
1. i am a rules-follower. before typing my list, i looked back at the rules i received from my two friends. one set of rules asked for 7 random things about myself. the second set asked for 8. i had to do 8 because if i only did 7, then i'd be breaking the first set of rules.
2. i have to sleep near my alarm clock. i have restless sleep if i think i won't be able to read the time when i wake up in the middle of the night. i have pretty poor eyesight, so even with my big-numbered alarm clock you can imagine what "near" means.
3. i love green tea ice cream. i hate that they give you so little at restaurants.
4. i don't like driving over anything on a road because i'm afraid that it's actually a bomb and my car will blow up as soon as i drive over it. so, i do all that i can to avoid driving over anything in the middle of my path, even if it's just a leaf.
5. i like to type. i test my speed every so often and my current speed is 86 wpm.
6. i love road trips.
7. i am a craigslist junkie, though i've only purchased a couple of things from it.
8. my favorite runts candy flavor is banana (this is for sarah, who was the first to tag me).

i tag: allan , shannon, bing, tammy, emily, vicky, karen, & adriana.
