Weird facts tag

This is my first time participating in a blog tag or meme or anything like that, so I hope I don't screw it up. It's not properly knitting related, unless you count being tagged by my friend Katie, who is a fellow knitter. But hey, even though Marsha Knits, she also does lots of other things, too!

So here goes. Six weird facts about me.

1. I can bark like a chihuahua. (Does this have a practical use? Absolutely not--at least, not one that I've discovered.)

2. Not only am I one of those rare southpaws with legible handwriting, but I can actually write backwards (and that is legible, too!).

3. I am militantly anti-olive and anti-pickle. I do try an olive every once in a while, just to see if that's changed, but I really see no reason to give pickles a second chance.

4. I've been to every state in the United States.

5. Although I've been a vegetarian since January 1993, I really really really miss seafood. If someone can figure out how to make believable and affordable fake seafood out of tofu or seitan, I will personally write to the pope to ask for sainthood for that person.

6. My husband and I met via the Internet, while I was living in Oregon (talking to environmental activists and loggers and looking for someone to go backpacking with) and he was living in Pennsylvania (trying to avoid meeting more vampire wanna-bes--who, curiously enough, liked to meet for coffee in the middle of the day).
