I’ve been tagged by Endment<\/a> with a meme to list seven random things. I’ve done some variation on this meme a few times, but they seem well-buried in the archives in case I repeat myself.<\/p>\n

Here are the rules:<\/p>\n

Link to the person who tagged you and post the rules on your blog.
Share 7 random or weird things about yourself.
Tag 7 people at the end of your post, and include links to their blogs.
Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their blog.<\/p>\n

So here goes:<\/p>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
1. I have a newly-minted relative. Here’s his pic. Can you tell he’s not from my side of the family with that dark hair! His name is Giovanni.<\/p>\n

2. The only magazine I subscribe to and read regularly is <\/span>Vanity Fair<\/span><\/a>. At the moment, I carry three issues to and from work with me every day, but clearly don’t find the time to read them.<\/p>\n

\"\"
3. Speaking of work, my cubicle-buddy Linda came back today after being out on maternity leave since early September. Linda is Dominican and it’s so nice to have someone to share *bochinche* with and chat in Spanish again.<\/p>\n

4. I still haven’t really started my Xmas shopping. Can you say denial?<\/p>\n

\"\"
5. My favorite place to bird in Cape May is Hidden Valley Ranch. We never even got there when the flock was here in October, but the habitat is similar to <\/span>Higbee’s<\/span><\/a> (pictured here on a very birdy morning) except that there’s also a nice bit of wet woods and oftentimes Barred Owls (and horses)!<\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"
6. I finally had to buy Luka a new collar because he’s outgrown the old one. Of course he wouldn’t cooperate for his picture and insisted on sitting on me while I tried to take it, but the collar is a pretty shade of blue with neon green alligators on it and reminds me of the preppy ties I like to buy for my brothers from <\/span>Vineyard Vines<\/span><\/a>.<\/p>\n

7. Ever wonder what brings the most visitors to this blog from Google searches? <\/span>This post<\/span><\/a> and its pic of bunny poop. Go figure!<\/p>\n

I’ll tag:<\/p>\n

Susan, of course, at <\/span>Susan Gets Native <\/span><\/a>
Rabbit’s Guy at <\/span>A Houseful of Rabbits <\/span><\/a>
Dave at <\/span>Bird TLC<\/span><\/a> and <\/span>Around Anchorage <\/span><\/a>
Trixie at <\/span>Trixie’s View<\/span><\/a>
Ruthie J. at <\/span>Nature Knitter<\/span><\/a>
Jennifer at <\/span>A Passion for Nature<\/span><\/a>
Larry at <\/span>The Brownstone Birding Blog<\/span><\/a>
