It must say something about me as a person that I am just as excited with being tagged for a nice meme, then if I'd been given a gold anklet. I was tagged for this one by Charla of healthyhomeblog.

1. The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
2. Each player answers the questions about themselves.
3. At the end of the post, the player then tags 5-6 people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
4. Let the person who tagged you know when you’ve posted your answer.

And the questions:

1) What was I doing 10 years ago?

In April 1998, I was finishing up my junior year of high school. I was seventeen, to turn eighteen in August. I loved my poetry workshop class with Mr. Brush and was totally lost in algebra II.

A late bloomer, I was by then dating my first boyfriend. You know how some experiences aren't good or bad, but are what they are and help make you who you are? It was one of those things.

2) What are five things on your to-do list for today?

It's almost 1 am as I get ready to publish this, so it's tomorrow already.

Sleep in (might as well put something on the list I'll actually do)

Call my mom

Make brownies

Finish reading A Farewell to Arms

4) Things I would do if I were a billionaire?

If I were a billionaire, the people I love would never have to worry about money again. They would all have a home and enough money to follow their dreams. I would never waste another moment doing something I wasn't passionate about. Chris and I would buy a big house on some acreage. We'd rescue cats and dogs. We'd travel as much as we wanted. We'd be able to spend time with family, even if we didn't live right by them. Chris would be able see the Cubs, Bills and Leafs whenever he wanted to go. I'd study. Maybe not to get a degree, but to go deeper with writing, photography and general knowledge. As for giving to charitable causes, I'd give anything but campaign contributions.

5) Three Bad Habits

Going to bed at 3 am. Putting off important things like doctors appointments. Watching TV I don't really care about when I could be doing something productive.

6) 5 places I have lived

Last five in reverse order:

Farmington, MO (current)

Sheridan, NY

Kent, WA

Silverdale, WA

Eva Beach, HI

7) 5 Jobs I've had

I haven't had five jobs, but here are the four I've had: Payless Shoe (seven years), temp job at a factory (two and half weeks), receptionist for ob/gyn doctor (nine months), call center for a mobile phone company (since August 2006).
