I've been tagged for this one by a few people in blogs and on Facebook. I am finally getting to it...

I like how the directions for this meme demand cleverness - it makes me smile. Thanks for reminding me about all the Amy Bloom I have to read...I've been neglecting her.
I like this, particularly your fear!
This is such a great meme. I am going to have to do it. What did you think of Gods Behaving Badly? I loved it when I read it, and I'm now a fan of Marie's blog.
Great answers! I must read Amy Bloom (everyone under the sun has been recommending her to me.)
Courtney -- yes the "cleverness" command did make it tougher. ;-)
musings -- Can you imagine if that were a true story? That would be most excellent, but quite scary.
Charlotte -- I loved Gods Behaving Badly. I didn't know about Marie's blog, but now I will have to check it out. Thanks!
Emily -- I was surprised by how much I liked Amy Bloom because so many people recommended her to me too. That usually results in me disliking, but not in this case.
