Tagged!

I just got tagged to share 8 random things about myself. Here I was innocently looking at Stace's blog and SLAM...I got tagged. So here goes. It is suppose to be stuff that nobody really knows, but I think most people might know this stuff.

1. I have total blog anxiety because I have two friends that ALWAYS have adorable pictures of their girls on their blogs. I barely take enough pictures of the girls and I am married to someone that is super anal retentive about how the pictures are downloaded and where they get filed. That is why I don't blog more often.

2. I am addicted to Real World, The Hills, and Newport Harbor. I can't get enough of the angst and drama 16-25 years old face when MTV cameras are hovering and uncomfortable interactions are staged.

3. I am also addicted to Perez Hilton.

4. Based upon the previous two confessions I am not as shallow as one may think. I read at least 2-3 books a week. The last book I read was Water For Elephants. Upon moving to San Diego I started a book club within a playgroup I was invited to and it has really taken off!

5. An exciting few months were kicked off last weekend. Mike and I went to Denver for the weekend for his cousin's wedding and then I am going back in a few weeks with some of my girlfriends to see Beth Moore. In October, eight of my friends from L.A. are coming down to San Diego for a Girl's Weekend in Coronado and in November, Mike and I are going to London for a few days with his dad. Having vacations to look forward to are the peak of excitement for a stay-at-home mommy. Besides...the girls get to stay with my mom and as Grace shared with us last Sunday night as we were picking them up, "I want to stay with Nana. She's more fun."

6. Most of my vacations involve movie scene hunting, TV shooting spot hunting, and having tea. For example, my first trip to New York involved me downloading You've Got Mail's filming locations and visiting each one of them. This past weekend in Denver, I needed to see the Real World house and relived where Tyree got arrested for peeing on the wall. When I go to London in November, I have already made sure that I get to go to Notting Hill and visit Portobello Road and then go have tea at the Savoy. It is fair to say that most of the time I am wishing I was in a movie or I am quoting lines from a movie to talk myself down from the ledge. No need to post a comment saying I'm a dork. I already know that. :)

7. Before meeting Mike I attended 20-30 Dodger games a season. If no one wanted to go with me I would go by myself.

8. I often wish I could go back and talk to my 22 year-old self and encourage her to be more confident. If I had only known then what I know now...but then I wouldn't be who I am now so it would be totally different.
