Seven For All Blog-Kind

Mama Kitty tagged me, but I’ve been tagged several times already. There may not be seven things you don’t already know about me, or which I care to talk about publicly, but I’ll try because I like Mama Kitty.
1) I hate video games and I cannot play them. But there is one that may change all that. I want to buy Rock Band for PS3. I tried it in Best Buy and I was “not bad,” according to Max, when I played along with R.E.M.’s Orange Crush. The guitar, not the drums. B plays the drums, so he can do that part!
2) I am scheming to get Nat’s music teacher to come to the house and give him piano lessons. I think he loves her and she has already gotten him to listen to Mozart daily!
3) I just came up with a fantastic 50th anniversary present for my parents.
4) I am constantly making up stupid rhymes and parodies in my head. I only share them with Ned because I can always get him to laugh at them.
5) On Tuesday I was kind of firm with my Baby Bellies and they really got the message. They were quiet and attentive the entire class. I liked it better when they were wild.
6) In the book I wrote 14 years ago, The Scent of Violets, (which I am reworking into a prequel to Dirt), the main character lives in a Victorian fixer-upper with a Palladian window on the staircase landing, four rooms on the first floor, four bedrooms on the second floor, and an interesting attic on the third floor. I read this description yesterday and I realized that I now live in almost that exact house! Back then I lived in that brightly-painted condo with the long hallway that you saw in the first and second baby videos (thank you, those of you who deigned to watch). I dreamed about having a house one day but had no idea how it would happen.
7) I went to an aura reader 15 years ago, to try to understand more about Nat and myself.

I’m not tagging anyone else. This madness has got to stop!

P.S. Have you tried Guitar Hero on the Wii? It rocks big time! I’m absolutely positive you’ll love it too.
