Meme tag: 5 facts

I was tagged by matildaben:

"Once you have been tagged, you have to write a blog with 5 facts about yourself. Then choose 5 people you want to tag and list their names. Then leave a comment on their blog letting them know they’ve been tagged."

"Facts," eh?

1. I didn't have any first cousins until I was 16, which made for lonely family holidays sometimes.
2. My favorite color is deep but bright blue, like cobalt or the "midnight blue" Crayola crayon.
3. Until 6th grade I wanted to be a cartoonist when I grew up, but then I realized that I wasn't very good at being funny in four to six panels.
4. I have really tight tendons and rather bad knees and heels, which means I can't stand for much longer than half an hour before my legs and lower back start to hurt.
5. My accent is becoming more and more Chicagoan as I get older. (I've lived in Chicagoland all my life, but always had a fairly generic Middle American "TV" accent.)

1. Cinnamon
2. George
3. Brenda
4. MJ
5. Gaspode
