7 Bad Things I’ve Done: Besides Not Liking Memes

I was tagged by Noreen at Hankering for Yarn - what to do… There seems to be some sort of tagging plague here at b5media lately.

The last time I did one here at Offbeat was forever ago. Although, I did get forced into one at Tree Hugging Family too. Hmm, maybe if I do this one everyone will leave me out of this meme craze. Ok, this one is supposed to be “7 things about yourself that people might not know.” Sigh.

I think just to mix it up I’ll do seven bad things you may not know about me.

1. I once rode a greyhound bus to Minnesota from Oregon to meet up with someone for a road trip. The dumb people at the bus station made me and this other guy (later to be known as Peter going to North Dakota) get on the wrong bus - in Oregon. So we were three days behind right from the start of the trip. In Seattle our bus broke, in Montana our second bus broke. By the time we hit the middle of Montana, our third bus broke down. I was four days behind schedule, tired, and mad. At 2am or something, my new bus friends and I went off and got a wee bit tipsy at a bar. Then they tried to split me up from Peter - who’d I been traveling with for days at this point, and put me on another bus. I got so mad I was swearing (loudly) at the bus drivers who then threatened to leave me behind in Montana. It was the only time I remember being outright mean to the point of swearing.

2.  I once set the bushes outside my high school science class on fire in an experiment gone really wrong.

3. I spent more of my high school years ditching class than actually attending.

4. When I was twenty or so I worked in a little mom & pop shop in a downtown area. Some guy came in and tried to rob the cash register - I hollered at him, grabbed the money back, and he hit me. So I hit him back, and squirted him in the face with a cleaning solution (I think it was windex.) I got most of the money back too. Although, the cops caught the whole thing on the store video cameras and said I was stupid - because I could have been shot or something. Looking back they were likely right. But hey, don’t come in a store and hit me. I get mad.

5. I once poked holes in all these new tubes of cookie frosting with a toothpick (I was nine). Then I said my sister did it.

6. Hmmm, what else? You know, I’m not that mean. I don’t actually do bad things. I guess my next bad move will be to skip number 7.

Now who to tag?  

I am going to randomly tag people I don’t know - what could be meaner than that? Let’s go search the blogosphere… Ok, I’m at a Blogger blog of mine; now I’ll hit the random blog button and we’ll get some players.

1. Mi mundo pensante

2. Primavera del 74

3. A Pirate’s Mobile Blog

4. Jack’s World

5. Yes Dave, It’s All About Me

6. Pixelated One

7. I GIVE UP! You know, I remember when you used to be able to random search Blogger and find blogs. You know, those things with text; text that consists of little stories and opinions. I just ran through like thirty spam blogs and now I’m depressed. I can’t even find one random blog that’s a blog. Sad, sad, sad.

No more memes folks.
