I Need More Friends Who Blog

OK, the rules as stated to me are:

1. Each player starts by blogging 8 random facts about themselves.
2. At the end of the post, you tag 8 friends and post their names.
3. You leave a comment on the blogs of the aforementioned 8 friends, telling them they've been tagged, and instructing them to read your blog.


Random facts about Sister Madness:

1. I was given the name Sister Madness by La Cabeza Grande.

2. I have visited, driven through, or otherwise been to 32 states and the District of Columbia.

3. My parents have, between them, three marriages and one long term relationship. Through all of that, I have never had a sister, a half-sister, a step-sister, or a pseudo-sister.

4. Of all the children I refer to as nieces and nephews, only three have direct blood relation to me, and they are actually first cousins once removed.

5. I could read at the age of 4. The first book I read by myself was Dr. Seuss's "Hop on Pop."

6. I didn't learn to ride a bike until I was almost 9.

7. I won a prize for "Most Adorable" in the annual Halloween costume contest of the village where we lived when I was 3. I was a yellow gingham sunflower (handmade by Mom, back when she did those things), COMPLETELY adorable, and have spent the last 38 years trying to win the title a second time.

8. I was just puked on by a kid at work for the first time this past Thursday. Considering what I do and where I do it, I'm rather surprised that it took this long.


OK, Missy and Bridget? I don't see that anyone else has tagged you (and if they did, then you haven't posted!), so you're the only two left on my list that I can tag. I'll also mention that Zes has been tagged, and I am anxiously awaiting her post.
