tag, everyone is always 'it'

ok so there's this thing everyone is yapping about with the tagging and the blogging and the writing (imagine me saying that in a really brooklyn-ie jewish voice). anyhow, the ever-lovely gena mohwish has 'tagged' me. sam pink also tagged me and i think he beat her to the punch, but she's a girl and sorry dude--chix before dix. here goes nothin.

1. this christmas i have vowed to seek out and destroy all people who hum in public. extra special treatment for extra-loud hummers ;)


2. today i was in line trying to buy a train ticket and this woman behind me yelled 'oh, this is the ticket line?! i thought you were all waiting for popppppcorn!'. (wtf?)


3. when i was eight i was playing baseball in the back yard with my dad and i hit a line drive into his nose. i ran towards him, yelling, 'i'm so sorry, daddy! i'm sorry! i'm sorry!' he looked up at me and smiled and said, 'good hit, sweetheart'.


4. last night i saw a man on the El wearing a bright gold wedding band and looking very sad. i tried for a while to make eye contact with him so i could mouth, 'i'm sorry'.


5. i'm really good at 'text twist' on yahoo! games.


6. i got you a present and it was a tiny pickle-ornament from the german market. when i handed it to you, you thought it was a joke and you laughed and threw it into a garbage can on clark street. i didn't say anything and i laughed, too. later i went back to try to find it in the garbage can but then thought i might look homeless, digging through garbage and all, and i gave up. that's the last god damned time i give you anything.


7. my lust for you is diamond-plated. that shit is forever.


i tag:
my dad
tracy brannstrom
ryan bradley
adam coates
shane jones
michelle labedz
dj berndt

i am so lazy and not going to link those people so too bad.

EDIT: if you don't know what this is, since i didn't really explain, write seven things about yourself and then tag seven people.

DJ Berndt said...

I liked #4, which is between #3 and #5.

Thank you for tagging me. I feel like I belong now.

My word verification is "rarin" and I'm thinking of a phrase like "ready and rearin' to go!" because I'm kind of sure that I've heard people say something like that.
