I will be a good sport and participate even though I have an almost OCD – “Monk” level aversion to these taggy things. Let me put on my gloves. Anybody have a hankie?
Here be Da Rules:
1- Mention the person(s) who tagged you.
2- Complete the list of 8′s.
3- Tag 8 other bloggers.

Rule number 5 (for my list): Don’t be reading anything into the order of things. Except for maybe the very first entry. Food rules.

Blog Lurker – Hey, you know who you are!
And just for the record, if you have heartburn about doing these tag things, just bow out. You ain’t gonna offend me! I had to eat chocolate just to get through it myself.
Have fun.
Gee – thanks…
Well, at least I wasn’t double-teamed like you were! Poor thing, I hope they didn’t knock you over when they tagged you. Those two can be pretty rough and tumble! LOL
Alllll-RIGHT. I’ll do it… maybe not tonight, but I’ll do it!
Would you prefer I say I want to bow out?
I appreciate the gesture across the waves of etherness, but I just don’t wanna play right now.
Really busy with my edits.
I do want to hear what you are working on next though. Later.
Anything that drives a person to chocolate can’t be all bad. I’ll do it, too, but maybe not before next Friday. (I do have a personal blog, but it’s more a “theory” than a place I actually post.)
Thanks for participating, Daron! I’m sorry I put you through such an horrible thing!
Loved the 8s you wrote. =] The perpetual student was my favorite, I won’t lie. =]
Healing is going the way it is supposed to, or at least that is what I hope. Thanks for the tag…you can search back on my pages and find mine…I think I did it in Aug, Sept or Oct. I know it was in the fall at least!
