I've Been Tagged

My sister Mindy tagged me, so now I have to share 8 random facts about me. Here goes:

1. I LOVE to get good deals, and I am a bargain shopper. When it comes to clothes, I will probably won't buy it unless it's on sale (and a pretty smokin' deal). My sister Kayla and I were joking that whenever anyone says to us "Cute shirt," we pretty much always respond "Thanks, I got it for $__." I totally look at the grocery store ads and compare prices. I usually only end up going to Fry's (because I can usually get the biggest bang for my buck there) and price match the other good deals at Wal-Mart, unless there is a smokin' deal going on. I've also become a fan of the Sister Savings website, because it lists all the grocery store deals in one place.
2. I'm a CPA who doesn't do taxes. Well, I've done my own (and mine and David's) for about 5 years now, but that's it. When I was working for the accounting firm I was an auditor (not for the IRS), in which businesses would pay us to come and look at their books for them to make sure there wasn't fraudulent activity going on. It's kind of one of my pet peeves that everyone assumes that I know about taxes. I took one class in college on them, and that's pretty much the extent of my knowledge (and I've forgotten most of that, I'd have to look it up).
3. I suffer from "Mom-nesia." I seriously think that my memory has gone down hill since I had Josh. I don't know if it's because I'm not using my brain in the same way anymore or what, but I forgot things all the time! I know I used to forget things before I had Josh, but it's even worse now.
4. Because I suffer from the above disorder, I am a list maker. I have to make lists for everything, or else I'll forget it. I have a grocery list, a Wal-Mart list, a list of things I need to remember to take with us to Shumway this weekend, a list of memories of my dad that have come to me over the past few weeks that I don't want to forget, a list of possible gift ideas for David, etc. When I first got tagged for this, I started a list of random things I could write about myself, because I knew I would forget them if I didn't write them down.
5. I won't drink a glass of milk, but I will drink the milk in my bowl after I finish all the cereal in it. David thinks it's weird that I grew up on a ranch and don't like milk. I say, there are a lot of people who don't drink milk, many in my family included.
6. I'm afraid to try new things if I don't think I'll be good at them. I guess I worry too much about what other people think of me.
7. I was cut from the 8th grade volleyball team, which was probably one of the best things, sports-wise, that ever happened to me. It made me work a LOT harder.
8. It kind of bugs me when people don't use adverbs correctly. It must be because I was dubbed a grammar policeman back in HS by Miss Cunningham. It used to be that I would verbally correct someone if I would hear them use an adverb incorrectly, but now for the most part I keep it inside. (I probably shouldn't have have listed this last one, because there are probably a lot of grammatical errors that I make on a regular basis, including the improper use of adverbs.)

I've seen a lot of "tags" on blogs lately, but I don't remember reading any on these peoples' blogs, so here's who I'm tagging: Tiffini, Danielle & Carli. (But I won't be offended if you don't want to do it, guys!)
