The Meme of Sevens
I was having a totally unproductive day and just starting to feel guilty about it when I saw this on Robin D. Owens's blog. So here goes (note: lists are not all-inclusive, but just the first things that came to mind):7 Things to Do Before I Die:
- see a whooping crane in the wild
- take Chris to Scotland

7 Things I Cannot Do:
- play the drum solo from "Wipeout"
- eat veal
- bungee jump

- stand still while brushing my teeth
- tolerate crowds for long periods of time
7 things that attract me to people:
- sense of humor
- kind eyes
- creativity
- sense of humor
- intelligence
- open-mindedness
- did I mention sense of humor?

Hey, I just figured out the origin of the word "meme."
It's "me" and "me" put together--as in, let "me" talk about "me"!
