Crazy Eights

Tagged by MidLeah, this one looks like a lot of fun, so.....

Eight Things I Have A Passion For:
  1. Sushi
  2. My Family
  3. Music. Most kinds, mostly isn't popular, but I like some popular music that fits my blend.
  4. Academics. If I am going to learn something I want to learn it well.
  5. Golf. A recent addition. I don't like the stuck up, hoighty toighty, elitist aspect of it. I like the act of playing a simple yet challenging game in the great scenery. Golf relaxes me, even though I am not very good at it.
  6. Dancing.

  6. Contribute something meaningful to the World, doesn't need to be big, if it is a legacy that helps out my kids it will be enough.

Very nice!

Always a pleasure seeing another Grisham fan, too. There don't seem to be many of us left.

Superwoman said...

lol- honey can I get . . . SO true! Just when I think you have all the games and stuff you want, another one comes out. I'll work on the tag tonight.

Bob said...

Zed's dead, buddy, Zed's dead...

Is Grisham still writing? I like his books, but they mostly all seem too much alike.

(I refuse to accept the tag. I'm lazy)

BigSister said...

I'll take Nobody's tag - this looks like a fun post to do.

Sushiboy said...

ML - There isn't many Grisham fans left? Wow, I must be living under a rock. After I few internet searches I've come to the same conclusion. Grisham fans have dwindled. Oh well, I've always liked him, since I read The Client way back in the early 90's I picked it up at a family friends house while on vacation, and finished the whole book in about 6 hours. I couldn't read fast enough.

SW - So sad and So true.

Nobody - Yah Zed is dead, and so is Dr. Mom. I just leave them the occasional tag for ol' times sake.

BgS - Great, can't wait to read your responses.

Sushiboy said...

isn't = aren't, I should really learn to proof read before I hit Publish.

Tug said...

I'll let you know when I get it done!

Grandkids are a blast...but enjoy YOUR kids while they're young enough that you all still like each other - LOL.

(I kid...kind of)

Sushiboy said...

Sage advice Tug. I'm working on it, but as I'm sure you know (having been through all this parenting stuff) that I could always do a little better at it. But its good times and worth it.

Superwoman said...

Jodi said...

Hey, I'll do it. And I'll get Truckindude to do it too....somehow.

Check out my blog to see a picture of a really good-looking couple I know.
