Ok, it's been over a month since I was tagged, and I'm never going to find time to do all 7, so I'm going to have to answer 1 per day for a week.

Basically, you comment to this post, and I will choose 7 of your interests that I am curious about. You post about them in your own journal and we continue from there. So--

All definitions are what they mean to me...not from a dictionary, wiki, or other source.


Armadillos

I started collecting armadillos when I was 14. The president of my high school church choir (Lutheran) had a friend who was a sculptor, and made these weird armadillo sculptures, and donated one to the auction that we had to raise funds for our summer tour. It was the strangest thing I'd ever seen, and I just had to have it. Pretty soon, people started saying to me, "I saw an armadillo last week--you have to go buy it." Before I knew it, I had an armadillo collection. I'm particularly enamored of the Pink Fairy Armadillo, which is a tiny, 3-banded armadillo in South America, because, well, you know, anything pink is better than anything that isn't pink. My favorite in my collection is one made of abalone, that I got at the Hotel Hacienda Vista Hermosa, I don't remember where in Mexico.

Well, your e-mail has been sitting in my inbox taunting me since November 11th. It was time to get it done somehow. And most armadillos aren't as fuzzy as the pink fairy armadillo, but they all tend to have hair, at least on the bottom.
