I Love....ME!
Thordora tagged me with a meme during my hiatus, and I just realized that I've never gotten around to it. Sorry. One of the things I most emphatically don't love about me is the fact that I am an Olympic caliber procrastinator. I keep meaning to work on that, but I just can't seem to get around to it.
However, back to the original point...Thordora tagged me with this meme and I was actually a little excited, since I never get tagged (which only feeds my already raging outsider complex, you know). So, without further ado, Things I Love About Me:
1. I love my dna. Particularly as expressed through my clones...er, I mean children. I have to confess that I love that while each of The Ladies is so completely, uniquely herself, no one will ever question the fact that these are my kids. (I also love that both of them are utterly, breathtakingly gorgeous, but it seems a little vain--not to mention shallow--to point that out.)
2. I love my sense of hearing. I have really, really good hearing. Like, freakishly good. Which totally rocks when you're a teacher. I love being able to bust kids whispering at the back of the room by repeating or responding to bits of their conversations.
3. I love my brains. And I love that I love them. I'm really, really smart, and I'm really, really ok with that. As a woman, I love that.
4. I love how well read I am. When I was a kid, you weren't allowed into the big kid section of the library until you were 12. I got my card at 10 due to the simple fact that I had read every single book in the children's section that I had the slightest inclination to read. I cannot imagine being me without the love of reading, and I love the worlds and knowledge that that love has opened up for me.
5. I love my memory. It's not quite photographic, but if I've ever heard or read it, I can pretty much always pull up the answer on Jeopardy. It comes in quite handy when people try to change the story they started with, be they students or adults in my life, too.
6. I love my back. An odd choice, I know, but I have a really sexy back.
7. I love my life, and the way I live it on my terms. I think I might love that most of all. Because what that really means is that I love me, and I really love knowing that.
I'm tagging Eden, Landismom, Kate, Karl, Lady M, and Karen Rani of the newly rechristened Vodkarella just because of this post.
Oh, and if you want to tell me what you love about yourselves in the comments, I would really love that.

Good. I needed something to think about besides Typhoid Mary's psychotic "friend" and Universal Music and YouTube torpedoing my little video. :)
What a wonderful list - I love it.
Thanks! I think we're going to have some overlapping items, though:)
I love your #3--I'm smart, too. But for some reason I have a hard time admitting it. Hearing you say it loud and proud just makes me want to stand up for my smarts more. Thanks:)
thanks for the tag, yours was good to read and gave me some inspiration, I like the back one...never heard of a sexy back before
Love your list....isn't procrastinate our middle names? lol
You're so evil...
I have a sexy back too.
I love that I'm wearing lime green heels right now.
Well, my name is part of procrastinate, so I suppose I come by it honestly....
Thordora: Well, yeah. But what are you referring to this time?
tagging that which shall not be tagged. Ah, irony...
heh. well, she didn't say she was on "T". :)
Love this post - thanks for the tag! I'm going to have to think about it for a while and figure out how to say it.
#3 - woohoo!
