playing tag

I got caught. Apparently if you get tagged you gotta continue the meme. That means you have to write 10 random and/or weird things about yourself and list the 5 people you're going to tag and a reason why you're tagging them. Well, Thomas tagged me.

Since I'm weird and random by nature this shouldn't be a problem for me. And also, I'm gonna tag you HAR HAR HAR. OK, end of evil laugh...

1. I have a hoodie that reads "Goldfish Memory" and this is what descr

2. I have a couple of neurotic ticks. They come and go, and it's not like I'm next Adrian Monk, but there's just a couple of weird things I do to keep everything from going bad. Oh, and I totally know that that's nuts.

3. When I came out to my parents my mum seriously asked me if I was gonna get a sex change too. WTF!?

4. I consider myself a (half-)geek, but I'm really really bad with video games. Maybe that's cause I never had any when I was a kid. But a controller totally asks too much of me today. So donate me a console and let me get some practice ;)

5. I suck at drawing. Once while playing Activity charades I had to draw a horse. Not only didn't anyone guess it, they threw around suggestions like "a table!" "no, it's a chair!" "a table with a tail?"

6. My parents didn't let me watch much television when I was a kid, so I ended up being a big ol' TV addict. Well done, mum and dad!

7. My friends make fun of me because I like to cook. But I'm good at cooking so they usually shut up quite quickly - as soon as I put food on the table.

8. I can't carry a tune if it's that time of the month. I usually try anyway.

9. When I was younger I wanted to become a singer or an actor. I can sometimes be caught humming while walking on the street. I sincerely hope no one hears me. And also I couldn't act my way out of a box.

10. I'm a klutz. Show me a thing that I haven't walked into - and I'll walk into it.

Yet I'm really good at walking through the packed inner city of Vienna really fast dodging all those trudging people. Actually I make a game of it. When I found out that finn does that too I totally fell in love with her. OK, I already was in love with her. But isn't this more romantic? "Honey, let's go dodge stupid people together..."

Tagged (this is the hard part, because I don't read too many non-cooking related blogs):
1. shazza - because the girl has "random thoughts" already in her blog URL. And also she's great :)
2. ali blah blah - because she cracks me up with british humour and stories about her daughter
3. wil - because he has a thoroughly enjoyable blog that I'm glad I found. call me starstruck, I don't care. but seriously, his blog is cool and he seems like a cool guy.
4. laura - because I'm trying to keep her from writing her thesis. after all why should I be the only one procrastinating. Careful, sometimes she blogs in German!
5. finn - because she's the gf so I had to tag her. of course she's also great and hilarious and overall totally lovely. yeah. so that's why.
