So I just got tagged by birdmatt67 and Wiidark in under an hour. Normally when tagged, a person needs to reveal 5 things about themselves, but I got tagged twice fairly quickly and I'm not going to cop out so I'll do 10.

5 10 Things You Didn't Know About Me:

I automate as many processes in my daily life as possible, from my cats' water fountain, to my bills, everything is taken care of for me so I can worry about bigger things and focus on the non routine tasks.
I'm working on tracing my entire family history back as far as possible. I intend to contact all living relatives, contruct a digital family tree, and go well past 1000 years. I realize I'll never get to be Indiana Jones, but that will not stop me from taking part in a real acheological adventure.
Related to the above, I've learned that both my mother and father's families (meaning thier elders) followed each other's paths to where they currently live in America from a tiny Italian village where both sides have members' birth, death, and wedding certificates on file. so before my parents got married, our families knew each other for like a century.
I've recently been reading hundreds of pages of literature regarding the Knights Templar.
I've never done drugs or smoked anything, nor will i ever. But I do drink alcohol.
I am always hungry, and eat extremely slow because when I had braces I preferred not to chew with my molars as food would get stuck in the brackets; I chew smaller bits towards the front of my mouth and simply can not comprehend how people chew larger mouthfuls of food in 1/5th the number of bites as me.
I got amazing grades in school by paying attention in class and almost never doing homework, ever. I also did not study for tests.
I've never been bored in my life. I think constantly, and about so much that I've come to the conclusion that the reason I can eat 4000-5000 calories a day isn't because of my metabolism, but because I'm burning calories by thinkging so freaking much.
I haven't slept more than 4 hours on average each night for 13 years. Partly because I do not tire, partly because I need more time.
I think I might be a communist, despite my desire to be a wealthy philanthopist and charity organizer in my later years.

Now to tag 3 friends: Ian, Joe, and Carey.

"I've never done drugs or smoked anything" - bravo my friend, I feel like we are close buddies everytime some new tidbit of us comes out. I would have posted that in my blog as well only if you know me (ie sam and Dr.Z) then it's not new news.

Well done for not smoking or getting high!

There are always those genius students (like you it seems and not me) who don't have to do any study for a test and get 90% or higher GRRR!

Your blog is really interesting, so I'm adding you as a friend! Mwahaha
