Twitter Tag
I really enjoy Twitter. If you do not twitter and you are a blogger what are you waiting for? It is a great way to network with other bloggers and business owners. And Twitter is really like the great equalizer (remember The Great Unifier) because you can talk to major Bloggers. I have actually "met" a few of my favorite bloggers using twitter - when a blogger has 100+ people commenting it is highly unlikely that they will visit your blog. I have met The Bloggess, Mocha Momma and Guy Kawasaki (the mastermind of AllTop) by sending tweets to them. With Twitter there is always an opportunity for interaction. Including fun and games.
The other day I was "tagged" by a Twitter friend "cgc coach" to write six things no one knows about me. Here is a list of random factoids about moi.
1. I was the runner-up for the Miss Teen New York contest. I did it on a whim and placed. Just so you know there was no bathing suit or talent competition.
2. My favorite hobby is reading. Although I used to read books all the time I find myself reading blogs and tweets more than I read books. But I am getting back in the habit of reading a book every couple of weeks. I am currently reading The Host by Stephanie Meyer - author of the Twilight Series.
3. I sing. I have loved singing ever since I was a child and sang everyday until college. I took a break for a few years but singing remains something that I do on a fairly consistent basis.
4. I had all four of my wisdom teeth removed on the same day and I wanted to be awake for the procedure. The oral surgeon in his infinite wisdom put me out - when I was mid-sentence by the way- which was better for everyone. When I awoke I was smiling and happy. I think the nurse wasn't having a good day because he got upset that I was so cheery while others around me were suffering.
5. My favorite flowers are orchids. I love them. But I do not have a green thumb and my first orchid died - I haven't tried my hand at keeping one again.
6. I have been driving for over 20 years. I know- I can't believe it myself but it is true.
Six totally random things about me. And now I will tag a few of my twitter friends. I love their blogs and you should really check them out.

Here are the rules:
Now, if you’ve been tagged with the meme game from twitter, you must post 6 things no one knows about you on your BLOG. Then you have to tag 6 more people. (don’t forget to let them know they’ve been tagged.) Leave me a message letting me know that you’ve accepted the tag. Let me know when you’ve posted your list and make sure there’s a link back to my BLOG. Have fun!!!

I can't believe you wanted to be awake during the removal of your wisdom teeth...I still have all of mine and if I ever have to take them out you can bet I don't want to feel anything!
I too woke up quite cheery after getting my wisdom teeth pulled. Did you get them pulled in your early 20's? If so, that might be the reason =)
My URL goes to a non-existent site, BTW - haha ;)
Continue to have fun with it!
I'm from NY state too!
I like Twitter. If I don't have time to blog I Twitter instead. It's a good way to keep in touch.
I just wrote a Meme "7 things" about me on my blog. lol
