Tagged!

I have been tagged by the Knitting Hawkeye to list 7 interesting things about me. I somehow missed she had tagged me. Oops!

Rules: if you've been tagged, you have to write 7 random facts about yourself (usually fun and interesting ones) on your blog, tag 7 others and write to the original tagger to read your posted facts on your blog.
p.s-- you need to post these rules on your blog as well, to let others know how to play the game.

1. I took dance lessons for 8 years and even helped teach a little bit. I think I was actually kinda good.

2. I have ridden RAGBRAI at least 6 times. It might be 7; I don't remember.

3. I received my black belt in tae kwon do when I was 11.

4. I regularly sneeze when I eat dark chocolate.

5. I love shoes and have over 50 pairs, mostly flip-flops.

6. I used to meticulously paint my nails. If I smudged it before it was dry or chipped it I would take it off and repaint. Many people thought my nails were fake.

7. I learned to crochet as a freshman in college and I taught myself to knit in October 2006 in a hotel room in Cincinnati. My mom had tried to teach me that summer, but it didn't work.
