I was tagged by Jerry at My Autistic Boy, and am supposed must now reveal eight random facts about myself, presumably those not otherwise known.

The rules:

1. Let others know who tagged you.
2. Players start with 8 random facts about themselves.
3. Those who are tagged should post these rules and their 8 random facts.
4. Players should tag 8 other people and notify them they have been tagged

1. For high school, I was discerning whether to become a priest and lived at the minor seminary.

2. I was not allowed to run for school president, because I was not the right material (I was a rebel…for the seminary). The dean of students who made that decision, later presided over our wedding ceremony and mass.

3. We moved for work 5 times in 8 years. The last move was more than 2 years ago, and we have NO plans of moving again.

4. I lived in the South (US) even though I said I never would. AND I am glad that I did. Some of my favorite people in the world live there. There is much about the South I love. Besides some of the people, I love BBQ, and there is NO good BBQ in California. And I love southern breakfast - mmm, hmmm; with grits (especially with a fried egg on top) and biscuits and gravy.

5. I proposed to my wife at the top of one of those huge Ferris wheels at the LA County fair.

6. My folks had me when they were 19, and I have a sister 19 years younger than me, and my youngest is 19 years younger than my sister.

7. I was the first in my family to go to college, and I decided to go all… the… way for the Piled High and Deep degree.

8. I have been interviewed on TV - twice (thanks, Jerry).

I have tried to not tag those whom I would have tagged otherwise but have already done this meme (e.g., Deb at Ukok’s Place, Barb at SFO Mom). If others I tag have already done this meme, well…oops.
