Lisa Marie Mary has tagged me, so now I’m supposed to tell you seven odd and interesting things about me.

Well, here goes!

1) I’m a closet singer. In fact, I always wanted to be in a band but never pursued it. The closest I got was when I was working as a bartender, and one night the lead singer of a local band called me out from behind the bar to come up onstage for his last song – and we belted out “Highway to Hell” together. That was fun! Unfortunately, now I’m too old for American Idol

2) I wear gloves most days when I work. My hands get really cold, so one day I went to the grocery store and bought a cheap pair of stretchy gloves and cut the fingertips off. Makes typing easier.

3) I used to have REALLY long hair when I was a kid – so long I could sit on it. I wore braids most of the time before high school

Then I had really BIG hair (think ’80’s curly perms)

Then I had really SHORT hair for a long time

Now it’s just regular- longish and straight

Continuing on…

4) I have double-jointed thumbs. Not much of a conversation builder, but there you go.

5) I like to snowboard and I teach snowboarding part time. In the summer, when I’m not traveling all over creation to my kids games, I ride my road bike and play softball (second base).

6) I used to own and manage a pre-school when my kids were little.

7) I have a wicked sweet tooth, and I used to eat frosting out of the jar. When I ran out of frosting, I made more. I could probably still do that today, but I don’t.

So there are seven things about me.

What does this have to do with websites, you ask? Good question! Think of this. Lisa Marie Mary and I have never met in person, but we’ve become friends on the internet, through our websites and the sites of others. This is social networking in action. We do it for business, but we also do it for fun.

Now who should I tag? Oh, I know!

Ok, so this post has absolutely nothing to do with websites, but I thought I’d share something fun for a Sunday.

SparkPlugging.com has teamed up with IZEA to give away a trip for four to Sea World. It’s easy to enter. Post a comment, tweet, post a blog entry. That’s it. Simple and fun, and who wouldn’t love to go visit Sea World?

I’ve been to Sea World, but it’s been a LONG time. I took the trip out to San Diego over 20 years ago with a friend and her family when I was in college. I had never been to a theme park. It was a blast.

When I got married and the kids were born, it was something that we always wanted to do “someday”. I’ve always wanted to take my kids, but we never had room in the budget to go on a trip like that. Now my kids are 16 and 18 – the oldest is a freshman in college, and they’ve never been.

Are they too old?

No way. They’d love it. Remember, my first trip was when I was in college.

I’d like to take my husband and my kids to Sea World – make it a family trip – before they move out, get married, and have kids of their own. Now doesn’t that sound like a great idea?

Head on over to SparkPlugging.com and give it a shot.
