Ok here's how the game's played: I’ve been tagged! :O It's my turn to post eight random things about myself to my blog (which will be posted shortly) and then tag eight people!
Here's an example of how this works:

My post is as follows:
Random things .....
Well, jeez, if there are eight random things people don't know about me it's because they haven’t asked! :O
But let me give this a stab anyway.
I love color. Bright brilliant color from red to indigo to... oh, I guess you would know that from my work. =p Neeeeext.....
Um, I have cats! Well a few of you know that. But you don't know the NAMES of my cats! So here you go. Cuddles (she has gas, hence the name 'Cuddles' was funny because picking her up is sure to make your day 0.0)
Trouble (this is the cat who has to be rescued quite often, and will find places like the top of a door to pounce you from if she wants to be cuddled. So, trips to the bathroom late nights are sure to be rewarded with the claws of fury from above.)
Sweetpea (this darling is just the sweetest cat in the house, and she has the face of a stuffed animal)
Angelpuss, AKA "Pusszirra" (Pusszirra was originally born with the face of a little angel, but she has the disposition of "Kitty Who Ate Tokyo" if you are not careful! The vet even made a note of her temper in her paperwork!)
Don Duan de Gato (He's a lover boy, all the ladies looooove Don Juan)
Squeaks (That's the sound she makes, and she never shuts up!)
Eek
Boo (Eekers and BooBooKitty are brother and sister, joined our house right before Halloween. They are both black kittens, very playful, they love to hang out under the couch and attack feet or other kitties)
Chairman Mau Mau, Queen of all Whom She Surveys (She's the first cat to adopt us. She rules the house with a vengeance, spiking any kitty who dares approach Her Majesty. She can always be found on the fattest stack of pillows, the softest spot in the house, or occasionally belly-spread directly over a heating vent)
Yau Yau ( This is another gray kitten who found us right before Halloween. A neighbor was evicted from his home and rather than taking his animals to a shelter or adoption center, he set them all 'free'. Two were killed by cars, and we now have the other 5.)
Twiggy (This is the cat who came to us right after Mau Mau joined us. She was almost dead from starvation, hence her name, all her teeth had fallen out due to malnutrition, her hair had fallen out, and she was pregnant. She is the mother to 6 of these cats, and her full name now is "Twiggy the Butterball") :D
Krunk (This full grown male is more dog than he is cat. He 'trots' wherever he goes, has the grace of a dog, plays like a dog, and loves to chew on things, like a dog. Very sweet cat, very muscular, hence the name.)
Flower (You guessed it, from "Bambi". She was about dead from starvation as well, and fully grown. She was timid and weak at first, but is fattening up nicely and has begun to show us her playful personality. She looks like a mirror image of Don Juan, so I am already in love.)
Precious (This kitten was born outside, so her coming in the house took a lot of coaxing and love. She's got the softest coat of any of the cats, and is the tiniest. Stephen swears I named her Precious just so I could use my "golem" voice and quote from the movies.)
And last but not least, FuzzButt. :) Fuzzers is the first born of Twiggy's litter. He's part Maine Coon as are all her kittens, so this means bigger cats with wider paws, triple layer coats, longer muzzles and different personalities than other cats. They're sort of the clowns of the cat world. The others in the litter didn’t get the long pretty coat, but Fuzzbutt did. He's also the biggest cat in the house. He doesn't like to cuddle, until you make the mistake of falling asleep on the couch, and then you're a convenient heating pad for him as well as 5 or 6 other cats. Imagine waking up with 6 ten-pound cats on you! :O
Now that I'm done talking about my cats, I'll give you 7 other things:
2) I love red sweet wines, especially Mavrodaphne. Greek wine is from ... the gods. ;-D
3) My fave show on TV is "Dexter" on Showtime. Funniest comedy on TV at present. DO NOT
MISS IT! :D
4) I was "trekkie" LONG before it was cool to be. ;-D
5) I have eight pierces, but I'm not gonna tell you WHERE. More fun to let you imagine where! :O
6) Some of my favorite authors are Richard Bach, Taylor Caldwell, Ospensky, Gjurdjeff, Krisnamurti, Gibran, Khayyam.
7) Cary Grant! *long, dreamy sigh*
8) I cnae' tpoe wotrh a shti!
There ya go! Eight random things. :DTags Ciera, Popfuzz, Salome, Una, Ambergris, Bootski, Stella, and Neferia
