The one and only Jessica Del Vecchio of Washington DC has blog tagged me. That means I need to list 8 interesting things about myself so hear it goes!
1. I went skydiving twice and thought it was boring; When I got out on the wheel of the small plane, and I was hanging onto the wing support, the jump master told me to ‘Let Go! My body refused. Why let go of a perfectly good airplane? The stupidity of that command was against every natural impulse in every cell in my body. When I let go I screamed all the forbidden words and tumbled like a rag doll. Then the shoot opened and it was like sitting on a swing set. Why risk my life when I can just find a swing set?
2. I have three kids, 2nd grade, 5th grade and 8th grade. They all started school this week and they are super happy with their teachers and classes. I am amazed.
3. I am from Houston, Texas. I am the only person on the planet who misses humidity.
4. I like Boston Baked Beans, the candy.
5. When I first saw my husband, I asked my friend, “Who is that guy who looks like Art Garfunkel? Without missing a beat, she said, “Oh, that is Stuart Grigg.” I have an Art Garfunkel fetish.
6.When people get my name wrong they generally guess that my name is ‘Stephanie.’ I don’t know why except both names have the ‘f’ sound in the middle.
7. I can swim underwater longer than anyone I know. I am certfied in SCUBA, but I would rather snorkel. In shallow bays there is just as much to see and not so much prep and expense.
8. I love Dr. Pepper! If Dr. Pepper were illegal like cocaine, I would be in jail
OK let’s tag someone!

Interesting……especially since you rarely post anything about yourself!
I’m from DC but I live in LA now and I definitely don’t miss the humidity. I do sort of miss having any sort of weather though…and seasons, I miss the seasons too.
