What the heck, Jennifer Chait

by Kori Ellis on April 9th, 2008

I have avoided doing memes (which are sort of like blogging chain letters) for my blogging life. So today, Jennifer Chait tags me with this 7 random things meme.

Jennifer is pretty awesome but not for tagging me.

She tagged me from Off Beat Homes, one of her great blogs at b5 (Jennifer has great blogs a lot of other places too!) after she was tagged by Angelique from Breaking the Mirror.

Jennifer and Angelique talk about all kinds of cool stuff about themselves, like chicken pox scars, eco-challenges and being turned on by golfers.

I’m not sure if I will be as exciting. But here’s 7 random things about me.

1. Sports and Lipstick: I not only write about sports a lot, but I also write about fashion and beauty. It’s a weird combination, I know. In any given day, I alternate between breaking down basketball games and telling you which handbags and shoes you should buy.

2. Cyber Love: I met my husband on the Internet. *gasp* We met on a Spurs message board six years ago. I lived in Los Angeles and he lived in San Antonio. We got married very shortly after meeting, I moved to San Antonio and we lived happily ever after.

3. Gordie Howe: The first sports star that I met was hockey legend Gordie Howe. He came over my house when I was 7 years old to talk with my grandpa and have dinner. My grandma told me that I should get his autograph. He signed a used piece of wrapping paper (it was the only thing I could find).

4. It’s not in the stars. I don’t believe that my astrological sign has anything to do with anything. I’m Gemini - which I’m told means I’m flighty and two-faced. I’m actually level-headed and loyal. Go figure.

5. I don’t do recycling. Unlike my friend Jennifer, who tagged me on this, I’m not very eco-conscious. In fact, I don’t even recycle. *gasp*

6. Addicted. I got so addicted to fantasy football a few years ago that I had to take a year off. I had 10 teams and I was really obsessed with it. Now, I try to limit myself to 3 money leagues per season.

7. What’s for dinner? If I had to eat the same meal everyday for the rest of my life, it would be steak and watermelon.

Now I need to tag seven people I know. If I tag you, you have to post 7 things about yourself on your own blog, link back to this post and then tag seven people that you know.

I’m tagging:

Sandy Mitchell at Green Posse because she’s good people.

Jeanne Dupuis at Hockey Beat because she makes me laugh a lot.

Jyle Dupuis at Sneaks ‘N Gear because he puts up with Jeanne.

Christina Jones at eBeautyDaily because she’s going to hate doing this as much as I do.

Dexie Wharton at Style It Less because she’s an interesting person you might want to know more about.

Stephen Kersey at Hoops Fantasy because it’s the only other fantasy sports blog at b5.

Sabah Karimi at The Latest Luxe because it’s one of my favorite blogs in all of b5.

Oh and thanks again, Jennifer. *rolls eyes*
