Husband-tag turns into Wife-tag

Lindsay used her ingenuity and before I realized it while reading her blog, I'd been challenged to turn the tide and divulge things about Carol, like she'd done about me. "Revenge is sweet."

Five Things she loves
1. Cohen and Sandler
2. The "rest of us"
3. computers & blogging
4. the Utah home
5. NCIS & a few other TV shows

Five Things on her "to do list"
1. supervise cleaning out the garage
2. get around to making more quilts
3. lose 5 pounds
4. retire,be an at home grandma and volunteer at an animal rescue place
5. run a marathon, scuba-dive among sharks, base-jump from Golden Gate Bridge, sit front row at Championship Wrestling and let Tarantulas crawl on her.
Five foods she enjoys
1. St George Pizza Factory Garlic Chicken pizza
2. non-fat milk, 3 pumps syrup, 6 scoops macha powder, green-tea latte
3. morning oatmeal with brown sugar and raisins
4. cheese cake & almost anything chocolate
5. Almost anything anyone else cooks that she doesn't have to
Five things you may not know about her
1. she is self-taught, computer literate and collects Sid Dickens tiles: look here
2. she's had back surgery but still puts up with back aches, stiff neck and me
3. she always puts others first (this has nothing to do with it, but five items isn't enough: she was recruited for the job she is in now.)
4. she is the first person I ever knew who didn't litter (you know, throw Big Mac wrappers out the car window)
5. she is the first person I ever met from the 60's who didn't do drugs as well as the only person I knew to get on the Price Is Right game show - the trading floor, only, missed being a contestant by this ... ... .... ..much.

Five places she's lived
1. Heaven & then Glendale, CA - born there, May 7
2. Maenpah St LVN (with her grandparents)
3. Las Vegas Blvd & Owens NLV Trailer Park - trailer park is no longer there
4. Washington, UT - hey, part-time counts
5. Las Vegas - currently

Five quirky things
1. she has to have the closet doors closed before going to sleep
2. she is very security conscious (a good thing)
3. she thinks the worst when she hears a siren and one of us has just left the house a few minutes earlier or someone is late coming home
4. she reads magazines from the back to the front while in Dr's office
5. she is a perfectionist with crafts (she makes her own holiday & birthday cards)

Five people I tag to brag about your wife
1. My son-in-laws
2. Osama Bin Laden - not all of wives, just your favorite one
3. Bill O'Riley
4. David Letterman
5. Tod Palin (you know, Sarah's husband)

I once had a dream (but I really think I was awake) where the grim reaper was standing in front of the closet with an empty wheelchair. There have been many times that I have "seen" people in my room, so closing the closet seems to help me feel safe. I've also given Ron near heart attacks when I see these things and scream. Okay, so now you know where Buzz gets his psychoisms from.
