Birthday Meme

By Cindy | July 30, 2007

I’ve been tagged by Earnest Parenting to answer a Meme! What is a meme, you ask? Apparently, in the blogging world, it’s a way to ask a question, pick (tag) others to share their answers and so on. If you’re really interested, there’s a blog dedicated to Memes. Check out The Daily Meme.

For this one, go to Wikipedia and type in your birthday (month and day). Then you write down 3 events, 2 births, 1 holiday, and tag 5 friends. There are five slots in the meme list…If you are tagged, you have to remove the name in the first slot and bump everyone up so that your name can be added to the bottom. Participation is optional.

Here’s the list:

 

Comedy Plus

TwistedSister…

Ugly Mailbox

Earnest Parenting

Go Workout Mom

And I tag:

Little Mummy.Com

Mid-Life Mommy

Tea Party Girl

Groovy Babe

Working On My Fitness
