So it seems I've been tagged by Josephy Yi in his blog, and must now tag  seven people at the end of my post. Only problem is, I don't know who to tag. So I'll add Joseph now, and edit the list as soon as I figure out who else to tag. If you do get tagged, here are the rules.

1. list the original tagger(s) and list these rules on your blog.
2. share seven facts about yourself in the post - some random, some weird.
3. tag seven people at the end of your post by leaving their names and the links to their blogs.
4. let them know they’ve been tagged by leaving a comment on their blogs and/or twitter

Seven facts about me:

1) I have Indian roots. Okay, so here is the family tree in short: Mother's father was hardcore Russian, but grand-pops actually was a Romanian soldier in WWII, that fought against his own peeps. Grandma on my mom's side, full blown Romanian-- perty typical. Now my father's side is a bit more interesting. Grandpa on my dad's side was full bred Gypsy, as was his wife-- grandma. So Im Russian-Romanian-Gypsy, or since I speak Romanian, and consider myself more Gypsy than Russian or Romanian, maybe it's Gypsy-Romanian-Russian. Anyways, Gypsies actually orginated from India. So, I guess I'm sort of Indian also.

2) I'm addicted to books. I love books. Only thing is, I never read them. Okay, I do read some of them, but others--that I've been planning to read for over a year now-- are just collecting dust on my bookshelf. My favorite book right now is one that I've only read half way through, and have probably understood only 10% of. 

3) Don't know why, but I like Keanu Reeves' movies. Love the Matrix 1-3 for its philosophical undertones, and the horrible acting. I remember the first  "Keanu" movie I saw: Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure. Yeah, it wasn't so excellent, but that's exactly what makes it excellent. More recently though, I liked him in Constantine, The Devil's Advocate, Dracula, et al.

4) I think way too much. One of the biggest problems I've got is I over think and analyze. I really need to stop doing that, cause after all thinking is an obstacle to being. See, I'm doing it again. And by saying I'm doing it again I'm still doing it!

5) I'm sort of an insomniac. You see, I'll go through cycles where I'll be able to sleep like nobody's business. Clock hits 11:30 and lights out, but then there will be just weeks straight where if I don't drug myself to sleep, I'll end up cursing the clock. Seriously, I've counted to over 10,000 while trying to sleep.

6)  My favorite animal(s) are great apes. I love each ape for different reasons. I love chimps because they can be real wild and rowdy. The alpha male gorilla cause he's just a G. Calm and collective, but extremely powerful. And the orangutan is the secluded intellectual.

7) I wish I was a race car driver. I got a need for speed, but drive a Prius.

So that's sort of me (sort of cause-- never mind)... So tag your now it!
