Tag Sale

 

Brown Eyed Cowgirls tagged me for this history tag.  I had to think pretty hard on that first one.  Thanks for the trip down memory lane girls!

1)What was I doing 10 years ago?

Most likely testing software for Y2K compliance.  Remember the New Millenium?  I was living with a fun girlfriend,  playing the free & single party game at night and breaking code by day.

2)Five things on my “to-do” list?

1. Find a pony cart for Mr. Banderas
2. Unpack more boxes left from the initial move into Ranchette
3. Get out and photograph some new stuff: new foals up the road and Trumpeter Swans at Carver Reserve
4. Finally mail the envelopes I’ve had addressed and ready…and waiting…since before the weekend
5. Figure out where to plant the garden

3)What is a snack you enjoy?

  I really love that Zen Master Rice Cracker mix with Wasabi Peas or Thin Mint Girl Scout cookies.  I have no self control when it comes to the Thin Mints; I eat them full tubes at a time.  Thank god they only arrive once a year.

4)What things would you do if you were a billionaire?

• Crank call my old office mates like ALL THE TIME.  Leave messages on voicemail that say obnoxious things like “Oh me, Drysdale,  again, just popped over to Harry’s Bar for a little Bellini and croque-monsieur.’
• I believe the phrase ‘buying lots of ponies’ goes without saying.  

5)Places I have lived?

I started in North Dakota and now am in Minnesota.  I like to think I am slowly working my way South towards the Tropics.

6)Do you have any bad habits?

Moi?  As a Leo, I can hardly consider arrogance a bad habit; it’s a charming idiosynchracy.  

7)Jobs I have had?

Farm hand on a horse farm, Al Bundy at shoe stores in high school & college, a Kelly Temp one summer, Software Support at a major corporation, Product Manager at same, Photographer, Digital Printmaker, Graphic Designer (of sorts), Software & Controls Consultant.
