Getting taggity

Bren J. tagged me with the Eight Random Things About Me Meme, which is handy since I'm rather creatively bankrupt today.
1. I don't wear jewelry. None. I'm totally married but I don't like jewelry, okay? Especially rings. My husband wears one, so at least one of us looks married.
2. I used to think that there wasn't a character in literature that I could identify with more than Anne Shirley. Talkative? Check. Overly romantic? Check. Prone to DIRE KITCHEN EMERGENCIES? Check checkity check. The only difference, of course, is that I am dark and not red-haired at all. That and I HATED school. But then Mad mentioned Mary Musgrove and there went that. Mary Musgrove, c'est moi.
3. I'm rather agoraphobic. It's one of the main reasons that we live in Little Town - not just because it's small but because it's totally known to me, which makes it possible for me to live an active, fairly normal life. I fantasize about living someplace more interesting but the very things that I yearn for would cause me to emotionally capsize eventually. I read things about Paula Deen with a wistful hope, because she was much the same at one point.
4. Is there a better song in the world than "China Girl" by David Bowie? No, there is not.
5. I would totally join the Amish if it wasn't for that hard work + no computers thing.
6. I have dozens of cookbooks, which is probably not that surprising but it IS random.
7. The Baby is this insane combination of fearless and really stubborn and by the time she goes to bed I am just exhausted and spent. She fell off the top step on the porch tonight and her dad caught her right before she landed face-first on the bottom step and I feel utterly emotionally drained right now because of the little maniac.
8. I love cardigans. Random!
