“Rules”  After posting these rules, each player proceeds to list 8 relatively random facts/habits about himself/herself. At the end of the post, the player then tags 8 people and posts their names, leaving them a comment on their blogs to let them know.

1)  One of the most difficult things for me to deal with is a person who picks on someone who appears "weaker" in some way than themselves. I have no tolerance for this.

2)  I drive fast, and aggressively. I'm not a total jerk on the road, I'm just an efficient driver. And no one (except my husband at times!) ever feels unsafe with me.

3)  I tend to be anti-consumerist, and I am a political conservative. Sometimes I think people get confused by this, but I believe that it is truly conservative to find your happiness in something other than what you buy. I'm not saying that I'm an ascetic. I just believe that what you own in this life is not really important in the grand scheme of things.

4)  I used to eat butter-flavored Crisco sprinkled with sugar, and I really enjoyed it!

5)  I don't believe you could put me through any type of medical test that would embarass me. If a doctor tells me it's necessary, I don't care what it is, they can look at it, take pictures of it, probe it, whatever. I'm fine with it. Probably comes from being a nurse; I realize that sometimes discomfort and nakedness is necessary.

6)  I secretly wish that all of my friends and family could live in a commune-type setting. Separate houses, but all on one property. And we would farm and hunt and be mostly self-sufficient. Yeah, I know...I'm a hippie.

7)  I devour books the way that some people devour cake. Reading makes me so happy!!! And the library is just a miracle to me...all of those books in one air-conditioned place! My utopia!

8)  When I was little, my mom found me floating face down in a pool, and she revived me. Thanks mom!

EIGHT PEOPLE:
moviemaid, and seven other people from myspace...I just didn't think anyone read this anymore! But, if you're reading it and want to do it, go ahead...just let me know so that I can read it!
