Tres Cositas
I wasn’t going to do this until tomorrow, but seeing as how I am holding a VERY WIDE AWAKE baby right this moment, I guess I might as well take advantage of the time, right?
So, I was “tagged” by Life As I Know It for this lovely Meme. And so, without further ado…

3. Write the Great American Novel
Three Things I Can Do:
1. Speak four languages (English, Spanish, German, Italian)

2. Not getting into the blogging world sooner–it’s good for my soul, somehow. I wish I’d been doing this for years.
3. Not exercising during all those pregnancies, because it is making this whole weightloss thing very tricky.
Three People I’m Tagging
1. My Sister Laduwa, not because I think she’ll actually do it, but because she’s brand spankin’ new at this bloggin’ thing and it may just be the jump-start she needs.
2. My dear friend Kateastrophe because I know she will do it, and because pretty much everything she writes is awesome.
3. Anyone who joined my blog circle recently who hasn’t done this Meme–it’s a great way for me to get to know you better! Leave a comment here with a link to your blog so that we can all find you!
And with that, dear ones, I bid you all goodnight. I hope. Lil’ Dude’s still awake. Doesn’t he know it’s 2:30 a.m.? Doesn’t he know that Bubba will be up in about four hours, jumping on my bed, reciting his long list of urgent needs to me? Sigh. Oh well. A girl can dream, right?

I hate those damn word verification things! I refuse to get them until I start getting spammed a lot. I type it in…I double check it…I still don’t get it right! Part of my job is DATA ENTRY!!
Sorry, had a terrible drive in, feeling kinda rant-ish.
Cherann already tagged me so I’m out.
Oh, thank goodness I’m not the only one! I feel stupider every time I attempt one of those word verification things, because I SWEAR I see the letters and I SWEAR I type it in right. And I always walk away saying, “WHAT IN THE CRAP IS WRONG WITH ME???” SO thanks for not making me be all alone here. Phew!
And by the way, you come rant any time you want to. That’s what I’m here for.
GREAT answers! We have similar views
And I’m very impressed on your multi-lingual abilities.
Good stuff.
I love these things. And I have to say, even though you and I are pretty different, I think we’re very similar.
Blogging is fun isn’t it? I wish I had done it sooner too.
I am actually jealous of all three things that you can do.
I was up all night too. (for the second night in a row). I’m not sure what’s wrong with Jr Peanut.
HAHA! I have answered! And I have conquered! And i’m . . . not as interesting as I expected to be!
Sweet. Thanks for tagging me!
I just read the piece that you linked under Three Things That Scare Me. Wow! That’s all I can say, besides I can’t agree more. That goes for a great deal of your list, btw. Cool, you’re a fellow world language lover, I see.
Rush Limbaugh almost made it on my list too.
