I live in the wonderful and volatile city of Joburg in South Africa. Sometimes I get the urge to write stuff down. This is where it lives.

'Tagging' along...

Ok - so I've been tagged by Purplesimon. And it's made me realise I must be quite an open person 'cos I don't think there's much my nearest and dearest would be surprised to find out about yours truly...
Anyhow, here are 5 things you may or may not know about me:

1). I don't really like horror films, but can handle some of them just fine. As long as it's not "The Shining" (I got chills just typing the words). This movie haunted me before I even saw it! The ad for it was shown before another film I went to see as a young child - with blood coming out of the elevator... if you ever saw it you wouldn't forget it easily either I'm sure! When I eventually did watch the movie at 14 (in an attempt to face the fear and overcome it) it was almost as traumatic! I have a friend with an evil sense of humour who knows he just has to say the words, "Here's Johnny!" or "red rum" and I'm ready to curl up into a whimpering ball...

2). I have never dyed my hair... but am thinking about doing it for my 'wedding' in April.

3). I don't really care what happens to my body after I die - except that I want to donate all my organs (I have signed up to be a donor and carry the card around with me).

4). When I was young (around 11 or 12) I wanted to be a singer. Fact: I CAN'T sing! At all. Thankfully my father heard me attempting to sing one day, in my room, and gently informed me that I was useless. If only Britney's parents had done the same... *sigh*

5). I watch far too much TV and don't read enough. I am trying to change this.

Right - I now tag the following victims:

Zapruder
Lisa
A shade of Red

I have more friends than this, they just don't have blogs!
