After a great Thanksgiving I came back to about 100 emails to answer. I am so glad I caught up with things before I left! 
One of the emails I got was a pingback for a tag I received from Daphne over @ Joyful Days. The tag simply involves saying 6 random things about yourself and tagging 6 more people to send it to.
I have to be honest, sometimes these kind of things annoy me when they are emails or text forwards. However, after a long week of heavy blogging activity I am happy to participate in a little blogging meme like this one. And I am happy to let you guys know a little more about me…
6 Random Things About Me.
- Not only do I play guitar, bass, and drums in real life I can also play them at the expert level in Rock Band. My current favorite song on there is Man in the Box by Alice in Chains.
- I have my Masters in Business and I am currently thinking about getting my PhD in Industrial/Organizational Psychology.
- I love Barnes & Noble more than Starbucks.
- I won a Nintendo in the 3rd grade for a reading contest.
- One of my favorite books is the book of Ecclesiastes.
- I have kept a journal since I was 14 and am currently working on filling my 5th one.
Ok, tag you are it!

Hey Jeremy,
Thanks for the fast response to my tag! Glad you weren’t annoyed by this game
I love Borders more than Starbucks, and I think I’m on my tenth journal, so that’s two things we have in common. I was surprised to see that you like Ecclesiastes, though on second thought it does have beautiful verses.
I’m off to check out the other blogs you tagged. Thanks again for playing!

No problem Daphne. It was kinda fun.
I like Borders as well. And journaling is great isnt it? I think it is fairly popular with bloggers.
Ecclesiastes is one cool book. Most people dont realize the “Time for everything” quote comes from there.
Oh, glad you are checking out the other bloggers. They are more or less my top commentators.
Let me know what you think.
Cheers,
Jeremy
I’m more than happy to part of this viral thing. At the very least I could give my readers a peek of who is this smiling blogger..

Hmmm….can I come up with six things??? Thanks for including me here Jeremy! I haven’t really participated in meme’s before, but may give this one a shot… It’s great to get to know you better – I’m especially impressed with #6 – the journaling you’ve done. Something I should really do – but always seems to get pushed off. Maybe this is just the motivation I need!

Please to meet you Jeremy. Just curious, do your real life music skills translate well to the video game?

I would say yes. Especially on the drums. For guitar my fingers already kinda know where to move. Mostly it is adapting to the visual cues on the screen.
Jeremy,
Ok, I just made my post of 6 random things about me… it will be going up tomorrow. Happy?! Lol, just kidding it was fun. I have not tried Rock Band yet, I really want to. I was obsessed with Guitar Hero. Props on the journals, that is ridiculous. I wish I had that consistency with my journalling. Take care!

Nice idea Jeremy … and I’m going to take the ‘Comments – easy option’ .. mainly because I haven’t a clue yet how to work with the trackbacks and pingbacks and all that stuff.
1 I’m a Scorpio and have a small tattoo of a scorpion on my left shoulder (my Mum hates it)
2 I’m 45 years old and really should not care what my Mum thinks about tattoos
3 I don’t own a car or a TV out of choice and many people (including my Mum) think I’m a bit crazy
4 Really .. I don’t care what my Mum thinks .. no idea why I keep mentioning her
5 I have a great singing voice .. just whenever anyone else is listening I sing out of tune on purpose (yeah! right!)
6 My favourite film is the Godfather which is kind of strange when you realise what I blog about (nonviolence) .. but then again I’m not perfect!

[...] I may or may not have known that I was participating in! Jeremy from Insight Writer just revealed 6 random things about himself and I am going to the same. He tagged me and well… if I claim to be too old for [...]
Wow! A PhD in Psychology? I would love to do something like that in the future. I have always loved psychology and philosophy! Good luck with it, anyway! Look forward to calling you Dr Day real soon!
Happiness and Memes are contagious! Well, here go some random facts about me:
#1. I am a hardcore “Insight Writer” aficionado!
#2. I am a voracious reader, a classical singer and an avid blogger.
#3. I am a proud Virgo;)
#4. I am a wannabe entrepreneur
#5. I love using a lot of “I” in sentences and am super optimistic!
Doing that was fun!Thanks!
