Loading ...iEight Pi
Posted by RaJ on May 21st, 2007
Blog feiend Steph didn’t need to twist my virtual arm, pull it out of socket and beat me over the head to write an “eight random things about me” meme. But wait. How can these be random?! I don’t have a randomizer in my head, do I? Is there a list of Everything About Me from which I can pull eight items at random?
This might prove unnecessarily* difficult.
- I like pie and pi in pretty much equal measures.
- All my socks are white Hanes ankle-height types.
- Spiders bug me. We will not peacefully coexist.
- “Mai-uh-hee / mai-uh-hoo / mai-uh-haw / mai-uh-hah-hah…”
- There is a piece of something stuck in one of my pinky fingers. It’s been there for at least a year.
- Given a choice between eating an onion or an earthworm, I would seriously consider choosing the earthworm.
- Mmmm, chocolate…
- Mondays do not bother me.
Since I managed to get Π (pi) all over this post, I’ll perpetuate a little more randomness and tag Π (pi) blog feiends instead of eight. This will of course make things easier for me, and should leave a few slices of blogger pie for everyone else. Thus without further ado I give you: The iEight Π Taggettes!
Note to the Taggettes - when it’s your turn to do so, feel free to list a random number of random things, and tag a random number of other people. I think it’s more in line with the spirit of the meme, yes? And if you need help coming up with a random number, check here.
* Yet (safe to say) not unexpectedly so.

whoa, Jam. Steph got me too. I’ll go ahead and take that to mean i have to come up with 16 random things about myself, which i hope will buy me some more time. Thanks!

Ahh a chance to be random. I’ll work on it tonight and chocolate makes anything better including earthworms.

I guess Cadiz12 could be after the decimal point and provide only .1422…. more random things??
RaJ - any idea what is stuck in your pinky finger? Any history of alien abduction??? Hey, the radioactivity, titanium, and fascination with world domination is starting to make more sense….

The Radioactive wife must be pretty good at getting white socks to stay sort of white. All my socks are black. You don’t like onions? Onions are a staple at the House of Sirdar. If you cut off the finger, that thing won’t be there anymore.

all your socks are white? even after eating chocolate?

Cadiz12 - what G-dog said.
Wildflower - I’m not sure chocolate could help onions, but - of course - your monkeys may vary.
G-dog - thanks for the suggestion; makes sense to me. As to any history of alien abduction, like most people I cannot prove it hasn’t happened. And the thing in my pinky could be a splinter, or possibly some kind of RFID device.
Sirdar - she uses some kind of magic fairy dust I think. And onions are a staple around our house, too. I just pretend they’re not there. Also, thanks for the pinky problem solution suggestion; I can honestly say I haven’t yet considered amputation.
Nursemyra - “white chocolate.”

Some random comments:
3. Do not come to Japan. You probably shouldn’t go to Australia, either.
5. I have a piece of lead from a pencil stuck in my knee. It has been there since a boy called Eric jabbed me when I was eight. We’d been sent to the back of the class for being
borednoisy and disruptive. The experience brought us closer together (probably because I jabbed him right back), and I was the only girl in class to sympathize when he lost the tip of his finger a few weeks later because an irate small girl slammed the door VERY HARD when she caught him peeking into the girls’ changing room. (I wonder what happened to Eric? Also, does he have a small black mark in his knee, reminding him of me?)My suggestion is that you leave the pinky thingie alone. One day it may remind you of something.
6. You should have married ME, and we could have established an onion-free zone with all the earthworms your heart desires! I couldn’t promise to keep your socks white, though. You’d have to do it yourself. (In fact you’d probably insist on it, like The Man has done ever since his underwear mysteriously turned pink.)

[…] was invited to participate in a Meme (questions about yourself) by RaJ. The idea of this Meme is to reveal 8 random things about yourself. I figured, to make it more […]

I’m a little slow but I finally have mine up.

BadAunt - those are the two places we most want to visit. D’Oh! Curséd spiders!
Wildflower - and a fine list it is. Thanks for randomizing yourself.

I don’t live in peaceful co-existence with spiders either. I know there will be those who say I should not fear spiders, and that I should only fear God. But I do fear God. I fear He may tell those spiders to eat me.

Ha! I’ll have to remember that.
