Sneaky Troll Under the Bridge [Fremont, Seattle] Holga 120S Double Exposure

There's a "25 Things About Me" meme that's racing all over Facebook right now. I finally broke down and did it, and since I never really write "blog-style" here any more, I figured I'd add my resoponses one or two at a time here, too. So here's the start:

You are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.

(To do this, go to “notes” under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish. [[of course, you can do this on your blog, too...and leave the link here!]]
========================

1) I have gotten tagged by this meme so many times in the past week that I'm finally giving in to peer pressure and joining. It took me 10 minutes to figure out how to post a note, though. I didn't notice that the directions were actually in the instructions until I pasted them up there just now.

2) The theme of my childhood was "horse crazy." Everything was about horses. Eventually, in the 5th or 6th grade, my parents gave in and allowed some family friends to give me my first pony, an older dun sweetheart named Buck. Interestingly, my best friend during the horse-crazed years, Dianne Wise, also got a pony (Suzy) at about the same time, at which point we became sworn enemies instead of best friends. During a brief reconciliation, we celebrated our reunion by "marrying" Buck and Suzy to each other. Shortly thereafter, we reverted to being sworn enemies, and Suzy sent Buck some type-written divorce papers in the mail, with items like "poop sticks in his tail" among the grounds for divorce. Years later, I found those divorce papers in a box in my hope chest, and sent them to Dianne. We're still laughing about that.
