Archive Meme

Now that I've been tagged by both EcoGeoFemme and ScienceGirl, I should get around to reading my archives and figuring out what to post. I've had a hard time figuring out what to post because I don't have a very extensive archive. Anyhow, without further ado...

Here are the rules for the meme:
Archive Meme Instructions: Go back through your archives and post the links to your five favorite blog posts that you've written. ... but there is a catch:

Link 1 must be about family.
Link 2 must be about friends.
Link 3 must be about yourself, who you are... what you're all about.
Link 4 must be about something you love.
Link 5 can be anything you choose.

I think this is a great way to circulate some of the great older posts everyone had written, return to a few great places in our memories and also learn a little something about ourselves and each other that we may not know.

Post your five links and then tag five other people. At least TWO of the people you tag must be *newer acquaintances so that you get to know each other better....and don't forget to read the archive posts and leave comments!

Link 1: Family. I don't write much about my family, aside from Dr. Man. So, I picked two posts that deal with fitting in with Dr. Man's family. Eventually, I should write more about my parents and brother.

Link 2: Friends. I'm lucky enough to have a great support group in Grad School. I think that my sanity has been preserved, in part, by having regular Girl's Nights.

Link 3: Myself. What am I all about? That's a pretty good question. I've written on various aspects of my life. But I guess the Introductory post does the best job of talking about me.

Link 4: Love. I'll be all schmoopy (and, yes, that is a word) on this one and say Dr. Man. (You all can now stop gagging.)

Link 5: Strange. I'm a life-long liberal and it was a strange experience to shoot a gun. I didn't feel the evil ooze out of the firearm like I thought I would. It was fun, a bit challenging, and a great stress relief. However, I still don't think I'll ever own one.

As to who to tag... I'm not sure. I'm a fairly new blogger so everyone is a new acquaintance. But I'll tag:
