Oddly Familiar Meme

Suzy at Luminferous Ether tagged me a few days ago, and as I'm procrastinating tonight, I'll do it!

Rules:

• The rules of the game get posted at the beginning.
• Each player answers the questions about himself or herself.
• At the end of the post, the player then tags five people and posts their names, then goes to their blogs and leaves them a comment, letting them know they’ve been tagged and asking them to read your blog.
