no blogging lately, for the following reasons:
a- am considering dropping the whole thing, mainly because I get annoyed when the somewhat intelligent posts barely garner any comments - it makes me think that (almost)everyone out there is an idiot.
b- been busy reading the new Harry Potter book.
c- i was tagged by Lakevent and although I dont want to tag 8 other people, who can resist talking about themselves? certainly not me, so here goes:

eight interesting things about me:
1- I have never been to Israel.
(when I tell people they invariable say "oh you gotta go!" but they never offer to pay for the ticket.)
2- I am an Entrepeneur (i think i spelled it right)
3- I would rather mow the lawn than clean my house. (hello, the lawn stays mowed for two weeks...)
4- I am in middle of writing two books, one historical novel for kids and one contemporary novel for young adults
5- I love to argue, politically I am mostly a liberatarian/conservative. I hate foul language.
6- My ideal fun day would be to go to a waterpark or jetskiing. Not a fan of eating out - spending big bucks for a fancy meal, is dumb. I just sit there, my practical mind thinking "I could have made this meal for 15.00. a steak is 8 bucks, a potato is 50 cents..." blah blah blah. I keep having to remind myself that I am paying for the ambience. then hysterically think "I'd better enjoy the ambience! I'd better enjoy the ambience!" It's exhausting.
7- I am losing the race- you know, the one to have the most kids in the least amount of years.
8- I am finding this harder than I thought it would be.

so there you go! I do like my own sense of humor, too.
