Tag, you're it!

I've been tagged by Josh "Musarter" to write 7 random facts about myself. Here it goes...

1. I am of Hispanic and Philippine decent.

So, that means I’m not the tallest person in the world, I have a large head, and am quite gassy. Not really sure if that has anything to do with my heritage (no offense to others like me), but it’s my excuse and I’m sticking to it.

2. I am a big geek at heart.

I’ve always been a geek. Not so much a nerd. I was never into D&D, or the sci-fi genre. I’m more into gadgets (iPods, cell phones, HDTV, etc.). I don’t know much about HTML, XML, or any of the other Internet acronyms. I just kind of skirt by when it comes to setting up my website. I sit in front of the computer, press all of the wrong keys, get upset, and Becky comes and rescues me.

Also, I have all of my old, and new, Transformers on display in our office. I was 10 when the Transformers toy and cartoon came out, and I’ve never lost my liking of them. Yes, I own the movie, and no, I don’t play with the toys….yet.

Plus, I like to think that I dress pretty well for a geek.

3. I have a very short attention span.

I always say that I have the attention span of a tadpole. And, truth be told, I believe that I have adult ADHD. For instance, while working on this very piece, I walked to the kitchen to get some water, and instantly started to wash the dishes. I never thought that I should finish what I started. In fact, I had forgotten that I was working on this.

One day I was cooking some eggs, and the thought of doing the laundry entered my mind, so I started to make my way downstairs as the eggs cooked. ADHD? I’m not sure, but I can’t concentrate if my life depended on it. Actually, that’s a lie. Babe, you can count on me!

4. I have never broken a bone in my body.

(currently knocking on wood)

5. I’ m an artist with bad astigmatism. Really bad.

I have worn glasses since kindergarten. I tried contacts from my senior year in high school to my sophomore year in college, but became tired of them. They were gas permeable, and they pretty much sucked. I finally brought myself to the 21st century, and got some modern glasses.

6. I holler at only 2 things in life.

Other drivers, and Wisconsin sports teams.


7. I married the bestest woman in the world.

‘Nough said.

Now you know a little bit about me. If you'll excuse me, I have to go start something, forget that I'm doing it, and start something new.

What was I doing?

Nice to hear about you. I too have a short attention span, but not quite that short. I don't consider myself a uber-geek but when I was shopping for toys for my nephews I couldn't help but notice how cool the new transformer toys are; the one based on the new cartoon, not the movie. If you have not, go check them out.
