Alack and alas!

I’ve been tagged, both by the Archangel’s Advocate and Puff/Bear at The Spirit’s Sword, for the Middle Name Meme.
First the rules:
1. You have to post the rules before you give your answers.
2. You must list one fact about yourself beginning with each letter of your middle name. (If you don’t have a middle name, use your maiden name or your mother’s maiden name).
3. At the end of your blog post, you need to tag one person for each letter of your middle name. (Be sure to leave them a comment telling them they’ve been tagged.)
E - Emeril is my second-least-favorite TV chef. (Least favorite is Jamie Oliver.)
M - Meat and potatoes. It’s been clear from my early childhood that those are my strongly-preferred foods. (OK, meat and starch…)
I - Idiosyncrasy. It’s one of my favorite words.
L - Late. I constantly run late, usually due to overcommitting myself. Drives my poor compulsively-early fiancé absolutely bonkers.
Y - Yahoo. Yahoo is my free e-mail of choice.
I tag: Jaibee, Jill (in the combox is fine), The Canuck, Heather Price, and Heather Siekierski (a.k.a. Mrs. Kheldar).
Middle Name Meme…
I will be forever grateful to the Church for many things - but one in particular. I now have a middle name, yeay!
It makes me smile. I was the only kid I knew of that was not given a middle name. It used to make me so sad when I was little that all my friends had one and I didn’t.
Here goes…
T - tardy. I too am always just a little bit late, occasionally a lot late. Contrary to the experts who claim that people who are late don’t value the time of others, and are selfish, etc. I usually run late because I am
sanguine about time in general, always
thinking that I can get more done than is possible in whatever time is alotted. It drives my husband and daughters nuts as they love to be early or at the very least, punctual. (sorry to copy Clam, but I needed a “t” and it is true)
E - easy going. This is a life goal for me. While I have managed to become easy going in many areas of my life, I’m still working on integrating that attitude in others. I am far and away so much more relaxed than I used to be, it’s good to see progress.
R - reading. Books are my friends. For me reading is a bonding experience. (I have boxes and boxes that I refuse to part with)
E - eclectic. Gosh I love that word. It also defines both my decorating and my fashion styles.
S - is the first letter of my last name. It’s a very unique German name that I assumed when I married my sweet husband. Personally I think it’s proof enough for anyone that I love the man! Did I mention that translated from German to English it means, “sniffling rabbit.” Very cute. I’ve been collecting rabbits (nic-nacs and such, not live animals - we only have one of those) ever since.
A - Adoration. There is something about spending time in front of the Blessed Sacrament. It stirs something deep within me that I cannot really explain. I find that
it changes me just a little more each time.
Thanks for the fast reply! Hey, where were you when I called earlier?
I had to run to Target for some household provisions - we went to 5pm Mass immediately afterward. I’m sorry I missed you! You mentioned in the voicemail that you wouldn’t be home this evening - so I thought I would try you tomorrow.
Hope you had a great weekend!
