The First Crusader Challenge

Today is the First Crusader Challenge where I'm supposed to let my followers know a little more about me in 300 words or less by revealing the following:  one secret, one lie, one interesting quirk, one annoying habit, one of your best character traits and one of your favorite things in the whole world.


But here's the clincher, I have to use these random words somewhere in the post: “bloviate,” “fuliguline,” “rabbit,” and “blade”

Here goes:

Because I choose NOT to bloviate, I'm making this a short list.

My secret? Well, if I told you it wouldn't be a secret, now would it. But I can tell you that, when I lived in Michigan, we used to chase fuliguline with our canoe.

My lie? HA!!! You'll have to find that woven within this list. LOL

My interesting quirk? I hate when someone moves things around on my desk or borrows an item and doesn't put it back in the right place. DRIVES. ME. NUTS.

 My annoying habit? You'll have to ask my hubby for this one, but if I had to guess, I'd say checking my email, Facebook and Twitter every 2 seconds on my Blackberry. I can't go ANYWHERE without my phone.

My best character trait?  Hmmm . . . this is a tough one. I guess it would have to be my skinny thighs and girlish figure. I really should be a model, ya know?

And last, but certainly not least, my favorite thing in the whole world.  Because this is a thing I assume we can't name our kids and spouses, so I'll say . . . the sound of children laughing. I just LOVE listening to the giggles of little kids. So uplifting and satisfying. Makes me happy.

So there you have it. Can you guess what the lie is. If you know me at all, it should be easy.

Come back soon for another Crusade Challenge.
