Of Brian and Marsha's Wedding Reception, Relief Society Room Rummy (bwa ha ha!), and Seven Wacky Things About Ben

It's been a few weeks since my most recent blog, this month having been fairly skimpy in the blogworthiness department. About the only interesting thing as of late was Alyssa's uncle's wedding (by the way, congrats, Brian and Marsha!), which I wasn't able to attend as it was because of work, but the reception was nice. Of course, the high point of said reception was when several of us got together and played RUMMY IN THE RELIEF SOCIETY ROOM. Heer! Soooo evil! Other than that, not much going on... but, good news on the adoption front! We're meeting with some sort of agency person on Tuesday and giving them a bunch of money! That means the process is finally going to get underway.

So I realized just today that I had been "tagged" by Lanae. (Speaking of whom, congrats to you and Justin! This world could always use more Wadsworths!) Meaning that I'm supposed to list seven interesting things about myself and then "tag" seven more people with blogs. Seeing as how Alyssa and I are linked to only five blogs, and of those five, only two are actually linked back to ours (dang you, Freemans!), I've decided to forgo the "tagging." So, seven interesting things, eh, Lanae? All right, you asked for it...

1. I have an abnormal fear of having hot tomato-based sauces go down my shirt. Seriously.
2. Biggest pet peeve? When people leave their shopping carts in the parking spot next to them instead of taking them to the cart dealy (which is usually about ten feet away). HOW LAZY ARE YOU PEOPLE?!! I've almost reached the point where I'm going to start taking offenders' carts and putting them behind their cars. Sheesh, would you look at this? I'm turning into Mike Freeman!
3. Second biggest pet peeve? People eating sandwiches without plates. Lately the sight of crumbs makes me cringe.
4. I find the Beatles to be extremely overrated. I mean, look at some of their lyrics: "She loves you. Yeah, yeah, yeah... (Repeat ad nauseum.) And you know that can't be bad/you should be glad!" Brilliant. Okay, let the hate email flow. I can take it.
5. Okay, fine, something positive. Umm... let's see... Oh! I know the Freemasons' secret code! True story.
6. When Sheridan and I were little, we used to stand at opposite ends of the hallway in our house and then run towards each other and bash our heads together. I hope this serves to explain a lot about me. For some reason this game was called "Fried Chicken and Fried Fish."
7. I have never had a Pepsi. Coke? Twice.

All right, that should do it for Mister List. Now my goal is to get Alyssa to do it too. I'll start her off with Interesting Thing #1: She has REALLY COOL toes.
