My first blog -- tagged by Melissa

Because I have been tagged by the fabulous Melissa, I am duty bound to post 8 things about me.....here goes:

1. I love international soccer and am immersed in the World Cup right now

2. I really love to cook. One of my favorite ways to spend an afternoon is cooking all day, listening to music.

3. After my freshman year of college, at 19, I was on the game show "Scrabble" (with Chuck Woolery) and won $7,500, which I blew in a year

4. I think that one of the best feeling in the world is very hot shower water directly on an inflamed poison-oak rash.

5. I want to learn to play the guitar.

6. I've never lived anywhere but California.

7. I have always eaten my breakfast cereal dry, no milk. I love milk though. Just not on my cereal. Still.

8. I adore my wife and kids above all :).

I'm going to tag Sliv, Phil, Cooney, Archibald, James, and Claire
