I've been tagged by Anne Bradshaw!
The cool thing about this game of tag, though, is that now that I'm "it" I get to spend some time reminiscing. So here's me in 10 questions or less. Well, actually, it's exactly 10 questions. But "here's me in exactly 10 questions" didn't sound quite as cool.

What were you doing ten years ago?
I was getting ready to leave for my freshman year at BYU. I was watching lots of Felicity episodes and believing that like Felicity’s, my first year of college would be a time of deep conversations, academic-looking sweaters, and guys who talked like they were 35.

What are Puffins? I've honestly never heard of them which means they must be sugar-free :-)
Fun stuff, Elodia, I should have done the script writer thing in mine. Shoot!
That would make a fun movie.
A read-in-the-bath, bargain shopper, eh? My favorite kind of person! :)
Ah man. I tried to edit my comment and deleted it. I'll try again.
Josi,
Puffins are hard to find. When I lived in Utah, I had to go to the health food store. They don't have sugar sugar, but they are sweetened by unsulphured molasses--I'm not exactly sure of the benefits of molasses that's unsulphured versus sulphured, but hey, they're super yummy!
