I am Only Doing This Because I Was Asked To - My Meme

By
Real Estate Agent with eXp Realty of California, Inc. CA DRE #01490977

Me riding along the Long Island Sound from NYC to BostonI am veering off my usual path of writing articles on real estate to share some information about myself.

Not because I necessarily want to, nor because you need to know this stuff.

And normally I write for real estate consumers, not about myself. But I was tagged by my friend Lola Audu in Grand Rapids, Michigan as part of her meme, which she describes as a game of virtual tag. She was tagged by Linda Scanlan (another friend and fellow REALTOR in Fort Worth, TX) who had been tagged by Ginger Wilcox on ActiveRain where lots of us agents hang out in the blogosphere.

Since Linda also memed me in her post I owe this to her as well. Thanks…I think I’m honored for the meme but do I really have to do this? (Plus I still I owe Diane Aurit in Lake Norman, North Carolina, a meme on books from weeks ago. Still working on that, Diane).

Soooo…the requirement is to share 7 interesting things about myself and to Tag 7 other people who have blogs outside of ActiveRain (I assume they should be equally interesting…perhaps more so. That’ll be easy). Not sure I can count that high on the interesting scale.

Maybe I can make something up.

Here's a riddle:

What do a horse, a tenor, AIDS, the Muskingum River, The Grand Canyon, artwork, 10,200 miles

and my blog have to do with anything?

Find out here.

Nothing very exciting on the interest scale, but, hey, it’s me and what I feel like sharing.

Now for the hard part. Who to tag? People I know? Those I don’t?  Friends? Strangers? There are so many to choose from. But like Maureen McCabe I think I will think local and stick to Cali (and of course those who also have other blog sites). If you have been memed before, sorry. But I have too, so you don’t get much sympathy from me.

Jeff, a good way to get people over to your other blog. at least it got me to go over :)

I don't think I knew any of those things about you except for the moving around part, which I believe I read in one of your blogs earlier last year.

Jeff,

OMG, you dawg! You know I'm smiling when I say that. Your 7 things were pretty interesting, it's going to take a lot more work for me. So this is the new spin on a meme?  Thanks I think.

Well, yet another comment from Jeff's wife. I didn't know about the opera and the horse. Just goes to prove that you can still learn something about your spouse after 28 years of marriage. -- One other interesting thing I can tell you about Jeff. He USED to be a tie fanatic. He had a gorgeous collection of silk ties while in corporate America in Boston. I don't think I have seen him wear a tie - maybe once - in the past 5 years. - Kay (Jeff's wife)

Jeff - You did a wonderful job with your Meme...I left a comment on your blog. To Kay: I've been married to my hubby for 25 years and am still learning tidbits about him. Thankfully they're good things!

To Neal:  Yes you were! LOL

Kay - hmm, guess having ovr a 100 ties DOES qualify as a tie fanatic. And for some reason I still have so many. Somehow it's hard to give up a tie that cost a lot of money. :)
