A Game, but not Jack's game

M told me about some kind of internet game that Jack knows about. You lose as soon as you think about it, or something like that. This is not that game, but another game...a game of internet tag, and I have been tagged by my friend, Amy.

Here are the rules:
A. Post the rules at the beginning.
B. Answer the questions about yourself.
C. Tag 5 people and let them know in a comment on their blogs that they have been tagged.

1. What was I doing 10 years ago? Getting over my working class hero phase and deciding that going to college may be better than working night shift at the Giant Eagle and day shift at a printing shop. Also, I am pretty sure I had never heard of the internet before.

2. Snacks I enjoy: Peanut Chews, kiwis, wasabi peanuts, juice.

3. Five Things on my To-Do List Today: print out directions to Pittsburgh Mills so that I can get my nails done with Loren and her mom (yes, as out of character as manicures are for me, that was really on the list), rewrite an IEP I messed up, edit the mission statement for our upcoming Uganda trip, call my Aunt Mary to find out if we can meet up while she is in town, and put away the laundry.

4. Things I would do if I became a billionaire: Move to New Zealand, quit my job to finish my novel once and for all, totally fund the Uganda mission, hike the PCT, pay off my student loan. Actually these are things I will do even without the billion dollars. Never mind

5. Three bad habits: taking on jobs I do not really want, obsessively thinking about my job in the middle of the night instead of sleeping, and overreacting* to said job instead of just chilling out.

6. Five places I’ve lived: Pittsburgh, Phoenix, Atlanta, Houston and out in the woods for six months on the Appalachian Trail.

7. Jobs I have had: program coordinator, night stock clerk, preschool teacher, cemetery landscaper, literacy specialist, special education teacher, receptionist, vagabond

8. Things people don’t know about me: I have a secret inner-punk rock self that is just about to burst forth

I tag the Butlers, Stan, and Leah, and they are the only internet people I know, so I cannot do five.
