"5 Thing You May Not Know About Me"
Okay, so I've never been "tagged" by a reader, I'm not really hip to the whole "tagging" phenomenon, actually, but on a couple of sites I read recently the blogger had been tagged with the "5 Thing You May Not Know About Me" question, and since one of them wrote "Be tagged if you feel tagged," I'm going to go ahead and tag myself and answer these (and because my friend Nita wrote months ago that I never include anything personal on my blog anymore, which is probably true). Though, granted, some folks will know some of these things about me.
1. I hate looking at art in a museum or gallery. Maybe because I used to work in museums, maybe because I like to sit and/or sip a latte while looking at art, but I only really like art in reproduction, preferably a book. I'll go look at art maybe, maybe twice a year. If I'm dragged.
2. I have an intense loathing for people who walk up and down escalators. You know who you are. Maybe not such a secret since I've blogged about this before. This has developed from living in San Francisco and taking BART every day. Hands down the worst part of living in this city. And yes, I do realize that as transgressions go this isn't exactly akin to, I don't know, voting Republican, but I simmer with rage nonetheless.
3. I love the character of Skillet on Sanford and Son. I think he only appears in 5 episodes. Always with Leroy (Leroy [Leroy Daniels] & Skillet [Ernest Mayhand] were a comedy duo). Sure, if you watch one of his episodes, you won't understand why. I can't explain why. But he's perfect (though Leroy was a much better dancer). That's him on the left.
4. I love the taste of communion wafers (it's a Catholic thing). Love them. They're almost worth going to church for. I wish I knew where you could get them (unconsecrated, of course).
5. Worst chore in the house is dishwashing. I'd sooner let them pile up and just not enter the kitchen for a few days than wash them. This does not make me popular at home.
Likewise, if you're reading this and are a blogger, consider yourself tagged.

i walk up escalators, that's all i'm saying.
:o)
So does (did) my partner--stop that! Why don't you take the stairs?!?!?! They're usually right there.
My brother and I used to play "communion" with Necco wafers. We would have played with real ones if we could have.
I must admit I get a kick out of kids who go the wrong direction on escalators. That is hilarious ... and good fun. I can appreciate annoyance with adult walkers though.
