Ok..... I've been tagged by 2 friends to play the same blog game. Though I have decided to amend the rules for my own personal preference, as my human heart insists rules to be broken, yet participate, lest my good friends not be amused. :) Here you go girls.
The Rules
1. You must post the rules. (I followed this one)
2. Post eleven fun facts about yourself on the blog post. (followed this one)
3. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and then create eleven new questions to ask the people you've tagged. (followed half of this one, twice)
4. Tag eleven people and link them on your post. (absolutely refuse to do this)
5. Let them know you've been tagged! ( also refused by nature of #4's objections)
