So... here it goes. I have been tagged and will attempt to conjure up something halfway interesting! Try to Enjoy! :)
Here are the rules:
1. Link your tagger and list these rules on your blog.
2. Share 7 facts about yourself on your blog, some random, some weird.
3. Tag 7 people at the end of your post by leaving their names as well as links to their blogs.
4. Let them know they are tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
1) I have the ability to cut a deck of cards into almost perfect halves. If I miss, it is only by one card. I have also managed (and I only tried it once) to split two decks into three equal parts during a game that required such a task.
2) Along the same lines as comment number one: It has seemed that I have been able to foretell the future at times. Here are two examples:
A. When I was a teenager, I went over to visit my friend, Rebecca, who at the time had a pet gerbil. I happened to mention that I thought it would have been dead by that time as it was getting advanced in gerbil years. Rebecca called me the following day to say that her gerbil was dead! I am still sorry, Rebecca!!! The power of persuasion! :)
B. I was playing Scrabble with Sean just yesterday when we were deciding the order of players by drawing out of the bag a letter. I happened to remark how amusing it would be if I pulled out the letter "z". For those of you who do not know there is only one "z" while there are multiples of almost every other letter. Guess what??? I after shaking the bag and waving my hand around in it before pulling out a block, pulled out the letter, "z".
3) I have do not own and have never let Charis sit any any kind of walker, chair, etc. that would encourage walking prematurely due to my pediatrician's advice, except on two separate occasions when at my sister's house. Apparently, my ped believes that such devices are the reasons for joint problems... I have not made up my mind, but it has definitely saved us money!
4) I have never permed or colored my hair, ever! Dear me!
5) For the first time in my life when I was pregnant with Charis... I ordered fries!!! They were quite yummy.
6) I jog/run and have since I was 16 years old, and I can say that I have not enjoyed one single step.
7) My tongue actually quivers when I am tired and somehow this relaxes me in turn allowing me to go to sleep at night. This random body function is actually what caused my bad under-bite when younger. Thus, I ended up getting a retainer which, though the doctor probably never knew and thought his own inventions worked, ended fixing my bite only because it kept my tongue from pulsating against the back of my lower teeth. (At the time, however, I was not aware of my tongue's abilities (age 7) and only knew that I was not able to sleep with my retainer in... Thus, I attempted to throw it away at every occasion, which ended in my mom and older sister digging through the garbage bin outside of Wendy's. YUCK!)
~The END~
I will not tag anyone else as all of my friends via blogsites as they have already been tagged!

A good fortune teller, maybe. Not such a great past teller, however. It was a hamster! ;)
I've always been amazed at your card deck cutting skills.
I wish I had never permed or dyed my hair, but I've done both! Not very smart of me. The dye was temporary though and not that bad. The perm, however, was not a very bright idea.
I also wish that you lived nearer so we could jog together. Jogging with a friend is so much more fun and makes the time fly!
I craved fries at the beginnings of my pregnancy first. Sometimes it was the only thing I could keep down- as sad as that is. At the time I was told that eating fries was bad, but eating nothing was worse!
I think I might have once known about your tongue's superpowers but I had forgotten. Amazing!
Oops... ok, so one of those little rodents with somewhat of a tail... :) I do have to agree, however, despite my dislike for rodents in general of any kind, that hamsters are far better than gerbils!!! My apologies to those of you who think otherwise.
Yes, I wish that we lived closer too btw!!!!! You would give me some inspiration, which I desperately need in my jogging/waddling career!
Good tidbits, Katie! :-) That cardshark superpower is pretty amazing -- good thing you've chosen to use it for the good & not for evil! Watch out las vegas. Well, I'm not sure how it could help you, but I'm sure SOMEone could figure out a way.
