More About Tyler – It’s a ‘Meme’..

by Tyler Osby on June 19, 2008

Okay, I finally pulled my head out of… well – you know. Today, I was going through my ‘link backs’ to my blog (people that show link-love and link to your website) and found that my friend Dru Bloomfield that authors the great real estate blog ‘At Home in Scottsdale‘ had tagged me. Yea, she tagged me back in FEBRUARY!

Anyway, the reason she tagged me was to make me a part of this ‘Meme’ game. The way this works is she answers a series of questions and then has to name 2-3 people to do the same. It goes across the blogosphere and everyone gets to know everyone. Pretty cool stuff, huh?

So, the task is to list 7 things about myself. I can only assume they’re supposed to be things you might not already know about me?…. So, here we go:

  1. I’m 24 years old. Recently 24 as a matter of fact (in May 2008). Quickly in my defense, I’ve been in the mortgage business since I was in diapers (for 5 years now).
  2. I love music. Any type of music. Going to a live concert is the ultimate great time for me. My most recent concert was Elton John in Vegas. I’ve also attended (but not limited to) Jack Johnson, Red Hot Chili Peppers, Rascal Flatts, Black Eyed Peas (before they were famous), John Mayer, Ben Folds Five and Prince. Yes, Prince… Actually he might have been known as ‘The Artist Formally Known as Prince’ at that time.
  3. I’ve grown up in Des Moines. Urbandale to be specific. I love this city and there’s nothing you could do to get me to move out of it.
  4. I’ve got the coolest family possible. My parents (and sister) live in Urbandale. Dad sells insurance and Mom keeps him organized at the office as the ‘office manager’.
  5. I LOVE mortgage related seminars. If the seminar turns out to be a dud, I’m always guaranteed to meet some super cool people that can teach me a thing or two!
  6. I’m a worker and I’ve always been a hard worker. It’s sort of tough to break me of it. In the past it wasn’t unusual to see me at work at 2-3am. I’ve tried to at least break those super late night habits.
  7. I love chicken wings. It’s pretty much my favorite food and I’d eat them every meal if my girlfriend would let me. I also enjoy cheeseburgers without the bun and without all of the garnishments (vegetables). I’m a little picky with my food 😉

Okay, now that I’ve done my work – I’m going to tag two folks to fill this bad boy out (sorry if you’ve already been tagged since this was FOUR months ago. Adam Carroll and Alex Stenbeck, it’s your turn (if you choose to accept this mission).

Thanks again. Hopefully you still respect me! 😉
