Do you remember the old days when you were tagged in a post on Facebook and had to answer 25 random questions? Or give your top 20 vocalists of all time? Or the top 10 most influential albums in your life? Yep. me, too. And Elaine over at The Miss Elaine-ous Life did a recent post going back to those old school blogger roots. So in good form (and after 2 cocktails that night),  I harassed her on Twitter and in the comment section of her blog to tag me (I wanted to do one too! Wah!!! Why wasn't I tagged!) Well, Elaine is a sugar. She tagged me. And I'm going to pretend it's because she wanted to and not because I pestered her like Elmo does those poor babies.

So here are my two lists. The one on the left  I pulled from my Facebook notes from February 2009 ( Yeah I forgot all of those gems where there too. And they are Pre-Pants and Plum!) and a whole new one on the right. I think it speaks volumes to the fact that I haven't changed at all. I'm still ridiculous. I still love Steelers football and eating.  And I'm still a huge supporter of the color red.  Please love me.  And then play along in the comments! Enjoy!

45. DO YOU LIKE ANSWERING 45 QUESTIONS?
I might have pressured Elaine into tagging me. So yes.

In following the grand tradition I shall now tag some people that I want to play along. You can do the same lists that I did or do completely different lists. You can decide to not do a list at all. No pressure. It wouldn't hurt my feelings at all. I'm serious. I'm not sensitive. Ok, that's a lie. I'm a bit sensitive but I won't be mad. I think. No, no I really won't. Don't worry. Ok, so I might. But I will get over it. Please don't unfriend me on Facebook while I process the hurt.. IT WILL PASS. I'm just telling you how I feel. I love you. Was that too much? It might have been too much. Forgive me.

Let's go back and try again. If you don't do it, it will be fine by me.  Truly. xoxoxo.

Consider it, Kelly? What about you, Jenn? JoEllen! What say you? Hayley, you know you want to! Molley, you are dying to do this, right? And finally Karen....Let's do this Karen.

If I didn't tag you and you want in on this Motown Philly, just yell at me in the comments or on Twitter or on Facebook. I will apologize profusley, beg your forgivness and tag the what what out of you. Yes I will. 

                                Don't forget to go see Elaine, too. She started this whole ball of awesome rolling....
Now pick any of these questions and give me YOUR answers...Pretty please.

I wasn't on FB during those tagging and answering questions days, so this is new to me. All I can say is YIKES. I'll do it, cause I'd do anything for you, but you're going to have to be patient, it'll take a while.
And in answer to your question about whether or not I hate you because of this. HELL YES. Not cause of the questions thing though. #DieHardPatriotsFan
