The Name Game Meme

Posted on September 10, 2007 - Filed Under Meme

Hannah at Bittersweet Blog tagged me with this meme and it looked do-able so I’m jumping in on it. Plus, I was at a loss for a post tonight and it is helping me recharge my creative juices so thank you Hannah!

These are the “official” rules (I cut and pasted, but added the numbers, so hopefully plagiarism is acceptable in this case):

Players must list one fact, word, or tidbit that is somehow relevant to their life for each letter of your first or middle name.
When you are tagged you need to write your own post containing your first or middle name game facts, word, or tidbit.
At the end of your post choose one person for each letter of your name to tag.
Don’t forget to leave a comment telling them that they have been tagged, and to read your blog.
If I’ve tagged YOU (see below), please join in on the fun!

Okay - here’s my info:

T = Tiny. I was very small when I was born at five pounds and six ounces. Now remember, that was before all the fertility drugs, technical advances, and more common surviving preemies of today. I’m still kind of small. I’m under five feet tall and the only way I’ll be growing now is sideways.

E = Empathic or Empathetic. I’ve always been pretty good at trying to put myself in someone else’s shoes and getting a clue for how they feel. Sometimes it about breaks my heart and I get internal conflicts between my head and heart going on. Which leads me to the next letter.

E = Emotional. I am easily excitable and very emotional. If I see anyone crying I usually end up crying whether I know the person or not and whether I know the reason for the tears or not. But I’m also normally the happy kind and quick to laugh so we have the little rollercoaster going on.

N = Nosey. I am extremely nosey. Not in a bad way, but more just interested in other people and wanting to know all about them and wanting to see things from their point of view. I could be the people watcher person who sits and watches people all day and makes up stories in my head about them.

I = Indian. I have some Indian blood – I’m not sure which kind because I’ve never done a full-scale research study to find out, but I know it is French-Canadian Indian of some sort. LOL. I guess I’m more interested in other people than I am in myself. I do know that my great grandmother smoked a peace pipe. That’s kind of interesting.

So, now the lucky people whom I’m tagging and would like to know more about are (I hope you are all duly flattered by my nosiness ):

my very bestest friend, and my maid of honour, is only 4′11″. So… i know short! it’s nice to have a friend around who is the perfect height to lean on…her shoulder is right in line with my elbow - imagine that. lol.

also, French Canadian blood?? Metis?? Sweet, that means that you’ll definately have to go on a roadtrip to do more extensive research on your background - which means, of course, tea with me.
