It's not the first time. But I decided that today I would play. I mostly don't play Blog tag because, frankly, there aren't that many interesting things to know about me (if you keep reading, you'll see what I mean).
Here's the rules:
Link to the person who tagged you;Leave a comment on their blog so that their readers can visit yours;Post the rules on your blog;Share 7 random and/or weird facts about yourself on your blog;Tag 7 random people at the end of your post;Include links to their blogs;Let each person know that they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.
Okay, here goes:
1. I was born in Cuba and Spanish was my first language.
2. I detest most types of condiments (mayo, mustard, salad dressing, etc...) If a food can't stand on its own, it doesn't deserve to be eaten.
3. I almost didn't make my First Holy Communion. Sister Pius (yep, that was her name) caught me making "fun" of the mass during one of our many rehearsals in the blistering central Florida heat of May. After a few tears and numerous recitals of the rosary, she gave in and let me do it anyway.
4. I once confessed to a priest that I'd robbed a bank. I was 7 and none of my sins seemed very exciting to me, so I thought I'd make one up. He was speechless (but still made me say the rosary as a penance).
5. In every "test" I take, I come up as a Left Brained person. Huh?
6. My first car was an orange Pinto with a white vinyl roof. Despite the many exploding Pinto jokes (you'd have to have lived through the 70's), it was probably the most reliable car I've ever driven.
7. Despite 3 & 4, I'm probably the most rule driven person ever. If it says not to walk on the grass, then I don't (mostly).
Okay, now that that's over with, according to the rules I'm supposed to tag 7 people. I tag: Gina, Debra, Ruth, and Lucy. Yes, I know that's only 4, but see number 7 about me.

If I'd been drinking when I read number 4, I would have spit stuff all over my screen. No wonder you became a writer!
My first car was orange too. A Datsun sedan. Loved that car. And I'm such a rule follower too. Kindred spirits. Yup. Always knew it.
And I'll play. Will post sometime this week I hope.
Maria's darkside come to light. Now we all know.
I'm a dudley do-right too-except for that 0.1 % when I go absolutely nuts...
I adore that you once told a priest you robbed a bank--during the sacred time of confession, no less! Love love love it.
