I Got Tagged.
Beth tagged me! Here's the scoop: "tell 5 random facts about yourself and then tag 5 more people."
Random Fact #1- When I was in high school, I went to Guatemala. I jumped off a tall cliff into Lago Atitlan and unintentionally swallowed lake water upon impact. I brought home some great memories of Guatemala, as well as a case of amoebic dysentary from cliff jumping.
Random Fact #2- I subscribe 100% to this quote, and its author is my hero: "Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn." John Muir
Random Fact #3- I have 7 piercings (previously 8) and 1 tattoo.
Random Fact #4- In college, I once was fortunate to eat lunch with Jane Goodall. The funny thing about it was that I didn't eat a thing because I was participating in a 3-day hunger strike in support of an unrelated cause. Ms. Goodall thought I was strange.
Random Fact #5- I wear red Crocs.
Now, who to tag? More like, who will actually play the game? I'll try: JeffO, Olga, Kendra, Anne (You know who you are, but I won't link :), and Bob.

Shoot- I've already been tagged! And, I'm out of random facts, now they'd just get strange. Do you wear socks with your crocs?

Thanks for playing Meghan!! Now see even though I've been reading your blog...well...forever, I still learned new things! 7 piercings? Wouldn't have guessed it! :)
Have a great day...

Hi all!
Michelle- I originally tagged you, but then when I was reading your blog, I realized that you had already played. So I switched you out. No worries!
Olga- Tee hee!
Beth- I certainly struggled to find 5 things I had never talked about on this blog!

Goodall thought you were strange? Isn't she the one that hung out in the jungle for years with chimps? Quite the rebel I see.

I wanted to tag you right back but I wasn't sure if that was, like, against the tag rules or something. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to try to say 5 random things about me that were true and yet not too horrible... ;) I liked how some of yours were little micro-stories. Little mini marvy micro Meghan memories. It's true what Michelle said, that we read blogs every day but still learn something new with the 5 little fact thing. I think it's fun! Weee!

Eric- When I tried to speak Kiswahili to her (She is reportedly fluent and I was conversational at the time.) during lunch, she simultaneously looked at me like I was crazy and answered me in English. Between that and the not eating thing, I think she wrote me off.
K-tag- I'm not playing again! Sometimes I wonder how uninteresting I seem when I deviate from the running and outdoors subject matters. My life is pretty backwoodsy, rural, quiet, you know?

Does the piercing count include pairs? I'd assume not. Like, two piercings in each ear is still two piercings, right?
