With the release of my last post, it’s seems pretty clear to me from the amount of Tweets, emails and Facebook messages that I’ve been receiving, that many of you would like to know more about me. So I decided to break cover and tell you all my deepest darkest secrets in a game of blog tag.
Now I haven’t played tag since I was kid. So when our good friend Kylie over at The Life of Kylie tagged me, I knew I was in trouble. I immediately remembered when I was a kid that my legs were too short to catch any of my friends and I thought to myself, I hate this game. Who thought slapping a kid on the arm and running away was fun?
As I read Kylie’s whimsically funny and inventive post, it became clear that the rules of the game I once dread, have changed for the better. So I’ll play.
Rules of the game
- Post these rules
- Post a photo of yourself
- Post eleven random facts about yourself
- Answer the questions given to you in the tagger’s post
- Create 11 new questions
- Tag new people to them
If you wanna see a picture of me, you’re gonna have to check out this post as I inundated you with photos of my cuteness.
11 random facts about me
- MMA is my favourite sport

Answers to Kylie’s questions
1. Conditioner or Creme Rinse? Wait, there’s a difference?
2. Amway or Mary Kay? I suspect after this post I’ll need some Mary Jane
3. Breath mint or strip? Mints are more fun to throw at strangers
4. What is your greatest regret? I don’t live with any regrets
5. Peanut butter: crunchy or creamy? All things taste better when they’re creamy baby
6. Shaken or stirred? I enjoy shaking the s#!t of things
7. Milk: soy, cow, almond, coconut, rice, or hemp? There’s seriously that many different kinds of milk? Holy cow! I have 1% cow in my fridge
8. When was the last time you played a real game of tag? You mean, all this work and this post doesn’t count?
9. Why do you blog? Because it’s fun and I get bored easily
10. Your basic sock color: white, grey, or black? One of my nick names is two socks; I never wear the same colour socks, so I’ve never once observed which dominates my sock drawer
11. Do you, or do you not, prefer the Oxford comma?????? After a quick Google search for the definition, I’ve come to the conclusion that I love comma’s so yeah! I do
Now, I’m all about breaking the rules, and the cyst in my right hand is tired of typing so I’m not going to try and get creative and come up with 11 more witty questions. I’m also not going to tag anyone, cause like I stated above, I’m not about slapping anyone on the arm and runnin’ away. So if you feel so inclined to share random things about yourself and if you like Kylie’s questions, feel free to slap yourself.

Lady, this post is so cool! It has been awesome to know more about you and what a great sense of humor! I have already been tagged but just have not gotten ’round tuit
Having read yours makes me want to get with the program pronto.
Of course, you know what you left out…your real name but then I KNOW but won’t give it away
Thanks! It was a lot of fun to write too, until my hands starting hurting. I can’t wait to read your answers for blog tag! As for my name…thought I’d still keep that one. Some bloggers know my real name and those who don’t, well, I’m okay with that
This particular game of tag is unbearably long, isn’t it? Did you see what happened to Melanie at ‘This is My Corn’? She responded to four separate sets of blog tag questions. She’s gotta be the champion.
Nice post–it’s so fun to see the answers people came up with to my silly questions.
Long is right! You response was awesome though, hands down. I loved your questions! Of all the people who tagged me, I thought your questions were the funnest to answer. I’ll have to check out the tag champ, four times, I have to see it with my own eyes.
I love kickboxing
Cheers. I thought this was a cute post.
Kickboxing has always been one of the funnest sports I’ve enjoyed. I’m glad you enjoyed the post!
Hmm, I thinking the chunky vs. creamy fight would be a good one for the tug-of-war arena… Going to have to remember that.
I don’t really enjoy slapping myself… well, in most situations anyway; never say never. Plus, I’ve already been tagged 3 times! Self inflicting that punishment, er, um, joy on myself seems kind of foolish at this point.
Ohhh…yes, a very good idea for tug of war. I might even have something to say on that! 3 times, plus now me, makes 4! WOW that’s a lot of tag for one night. I’m exhausted just thinking about it! If you do respond to 4 tags, I will bake you cookies. And give you beer.
Creme Rinse… what THE? I agree with you.
This is great, an easy reading tagged. I like it very much, & it tells much about you.
My son does MMA – Muay Thai, ju jitsu & mma. He just turned 17, and my blog is about his early years in life – the very years which made him the fighter he is today.
A great post. Cheers.
Cheers! I can’t wait to stop in and read more about your son! Thanks for stopping by.
Great to know even more about you, great post, fun to read!
Thanks! I’m glad you enojed Ute
I would have never guessed from your poetry all those 11 things!
Surprise, surprise!
The spirit of your heart that abides in your words is a true reflection of who you are…along with the genuine smile and your selfless heart…it tells it all! Perfect!!!
Awe, you too kind my friend. Thank you so much for your kind words. They continue to uplift and inspire me everyday.
It is good to know more about you. Thank you for stopping by my blog today:)
it was awesome to get to learn more about you! I almost wish I was tagged to play along but I have inundated my blog with info about me. What you’re favorite submission triangle rear-naked choke , gogoplata ?
Thanks sir! It was fun to share more. My fav submission is the rear naked chock, but that’s only because it was the first move I ever learned to master. You should still play, just get more crafty and share more funny things about yourself…I know theres more to you!
