7 Random Things

A little less than 10,000 miles away, I have a friend who “speak-a my language.” Though, we have never met face-to-face, I know she hates vegemite. Can you imagine an Australian hating vegemite? I guess it is possible. If Men At Work are accurate in their song lyrics, however, then in Australia “women glow.” If my friend Rikki represents all women in Australia, then Men At Work doesn’t lie. Rikki Glows! Just check out her blog, Rikki Reid Photography, and you will see what I mean.

This week, Rikki passed the 7 Random Things Kreativ Blogger Meme on to me. And, I get to tell you 7 Random Things about myself. So, here goes:

1. Celebrations surround me on my birthday each year. Tequila and Tacos flow, because my birthday falls on Cinco De Mayo.

2. Speaking of Tequila, I can’t tolerate even the smell. No margaritas for me.

3. However, pass the salt please, because I happen to salt everything else. Pizza, watermelon, soups, you name it.

4. Not cherries though, or apples, or carrots, or peaches, because I am allergic to those.

5. Here I am at number 5. I could take this time to mention that the number 5 happens to be my most favorite number in the world. You could say I have loved that number since the day I was born—5/5.

6. That was also the day my mom named me, Hayley. In kindergarten, I decided I hated my name. Nobody else was ever named Hayley. And, the lady on Romper Room never saw me—not once! Of course, I grew to love its originality as I grew older. Then, I grew older still. Now, Hayleys fill the kindergartens.

7. Finally, speaking of kindergarten, here is something random. The year I entered kindergarten, my darling husband entered his freshman year of college. Yikes!

Whew! Now that my head is spinning with randomness, I am passing it along to some of my favorite bloggers.
