Meme

Tagged for a meme (!)

1. Link to the person who tagged you and post the rules on your blog.

1001 Petals

2. Share five random and/or weird facts about yourself on your blog.

-I think grilled cheese sandwiches taste best when cut into triangles;

-My favourite type of coffee is Sumatra;

-I like to do things that scare me so that I never have to do them again (like rappelling, falling in love, rafting over a waterfall, and eating raw clam);

-The magnetic stripe on my bank card has begun to fail, but I don't want to change the card because I know its number by heart, have had it for about fifteen years, and have used it in a kazillion places between Los Angeles and northern Scotland. Bonus factoid: I get sentimental about the silliest things;

-My favourite word of all the languages I've ever been exposed to is 'quincaillerie.'

3. Share the five top places on your “want to see or want to see again” list.

Life is too short and the world too vast to go someplace twice, much as I'd love to return to Scotland and Colorado some day, so...

-Abydos, Egypt;
-the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro;
-Siberia;
-the Canadian north;
-Fiji

4. Tag a minimum of five random people at the end of your post and include links to their blogs. Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment in their blog.

Eeeeeeeeep, I don't 'virtually know' anyone well enough to do this part! If someone other than 1001 Petals is reading, consider yourself tagged!
