Tags from Verabear and Anj

Vera tags me with Seven Random Facts About Me, and Anj tags me with a 20 Questions-type meme.

From and for Vera

1. I have three tattoos. One of Calvin and Hobbes, one of an Egyptian ankh, and one of a tiger tearing its way out of my skin.

2. I have one ear piercing. Got it less than a year ago. Midlife crisis hasn’t quite ended yet.

3. I once shoplifted. I stole a cassette tape of The Pixies from National Bookstore. It was not a good album.

4. I have run over at least three cats. The guilt occasionally gnaws at me.

5. I used to go to Ateneo with a Coleman full of Long Island Iced Tea that was 80% rum and 20% iced tea. Playing for the Blue Babble stone-drunk and getting away with it was a feather in my cap.

6. I can’t whistle. So when people who can, do it in front of me to spite me, I spit at them.

7. I am forgiven. Despite all my stupidity, my flaws, and my loopiness, God continued and continues to love me. He took all of the above, forgave me for them, and gave me second, third, countless chances. He can do the same for any of you. Don’t let anything in your past stop you from achieving that glorious future that God has promised you in His Word. He won’t leave you and He will always have your back. I guarantee it.

For this meme, I tag anyone wearing anything red.
