8 things meme

I was tagged by calypso72.

The rules: Each player lists 8 facts or habits about themselves; the rules of the game are to be posted first; at the end of the post, the player then tags 8 people. (I'm taking the "quirky facts" route.)

1. My two sons were born 18 years apart.

2. I met my husband because a personnel director misread "worked with the Model United Nations" as "did some modeling."

3. I can sing songs in three languages that I otherwise don't know a word of.

4. I played second board on the high school chess team.

5. I know at least the names of several hundred of my ancestors.

6. I'm a MUD administrator (though I haven't done any actual work in ages).

7. I accidentally came across my childhood New Zealand penpal a few years ago, thanks to a woman in Greece.

8. I wash my hair with completely unscented shampoo.
