(Another*) Five Things

Lyle has dropped me in the shit (for which he has been severely reprimanded) with this here meme thingy.

To quote from Lyle: "The idea of the meme is to list five things in your life now that you would have never thought would be in your life when you were 25". So here we go then (deep breath...).

  1. Meeting Nikki on the interpipes, falling in love with her, and asking her to marry me.

    Okay this one's fairly obvious. If anyone had told me this was going to happen 5 and a half years ago, I would've told them to fuck off. Thankfully, they would've been right.

  2. (Relating to #1) Kicking every proposer of marriage's ass by asking Nikki to marry me, to her complete surprise, on top of a mountain, in Alaska, and having a diamond ring (that fitted perfectly) in my pocket.

    Well, yeah. This one kinda came as a surprise to me as I was doing it. According to several male friends of mine, I've now "fucked it up completely for the rest of us". Hey, I can't help it if I rock this much. :-)

  3. Buying a house and (even stranger) settling down

    It had to happen sooner or later. I just thought it would be later, after I had traveled the world and stuff. Oh well, I guess the traveling of the world will have to wait until (a lot) later, after gardening and pets (I want some chickens) and other settley-downey things.

  4. Being such a fucking geek

    This is actually very surprising to me. I was a nerd when I was in my early teens, interested in the sciences, reading, and getting beaten up. Then I discovered smoking and drinking and... things. Then (more recently) I met Nikki and fell in love. Then I met Adrian, who is a friend of hers, and now a friend of mine. Adrian is an über geek of the highest order. I blame him for my love of gadgetry, for me learning how to code (badly), and most of all for my constant refreshing of Endgadget's reports of Macworld Keynotes and the like (MacBook Air anyone?).

  5. (related to #4) Having a blog

    Hey, if anybody told me that I'd have a blog when I was thirty (and a half), I would have gone to see the doctor immediately to see if anything could be done to prevent it (not because I didn't like blogs, but I didn't know what one was).

So there you go. Funny how life can surprise you isn't it? But if it didn't, wouldn't we all be like, SO bored?

I'm not really arsed tagging anybody. I can't tag Babs because she's only 24. So I'll tag the aforementioned Adrian, because I know he won't do it (and I bet a fiver he doesn't), and Dan, because he might do it, it's his kind of thing. Oh, and I might as well tag me big sis' Becca while I'm at it, as she hasn't posted in AGES.

*(I say "another" Five Things because I've already done a five things meme, but a different one!)

Comments

This is completely ageist which is probably spelled wrong. I want to do one. I will have to wait though I suppose, until I am really old, like all of you! heeeeeeeeeeheeeeee!

So I am responsible directly or indirectly for all five things listed. Oops. Now I feel kinda bad although I am not sure why!

(PS: You are looking after the chickens)

OK I am a bit drunk 3 glasses of wine and about 19 chocs left over in the roses tin since Christmas (god I hope the spelling is ok I can hardly read the screen) I dont know how I get tagged and I don't know what to do when it happens but I will TRY to do the meme thingie.
Oh god I need to lie down. I am So old I am nearly 34. How sad is that. I will post tomorrow about NUMEROUS things that are fierce interesting and stuff.
