Kate Tagged me for '6 Weird Things about Me." And while there are way more weird things about me than not, here are a few that come to mind:
1. I hate wearing socks, but if I don't, I sweat profusely. To compromise, if I am home, I will often wear my socks on only half of my feet. I pull them off to my arches and let the rest hang.
2. If I find a song that I really really like, I will listen to it on repeat for hours and not get tired of it.
3. I refuse to read, watch, or listen to the news, because I have no desire to know what is going on in the world. I realize that this makes me ignorant of my rights and surroundings, but ignorance is bliss.
4. When I eat, I eat in even portions, so that I am left with one bite of everything on my plate at the end of the meal. Then I eat the bites all at once, so I don't have to decide what flavor I am left with in my mouth last.
5. I like to lay on top of my fatty cat, Parker. Sometimes I run from far away and "jump" on top of her to lay on her. I call it "clobbering." It comforts me.
6. I have a hole in one of my molars that is the perfect size for a strawberry seed. Every single time I eat a strawberry, or even a piece of one, a seed gets lodged into the hole, and I have to use force to pick it out. It is like they know that hole is there, and it is filled with a comfy bed and a down comforter or something, cause they all wanna go there right off the bat.
And you know, all those other weird things about me. Let's keep this going. I'll tag Margaret, Bilal, Steve, Rine-Stone, and Christopher.
Whoop! i'm the same way about the news. I realize it's ignorant as well. But what can you do.
Plus, the local news is just one nightmare after another.
Anyway, I'm glad there's a smart lady out there who is as ignorant as I am! YAY IGNORANCE!
Other than not wanting to know the news, these are pretty normal things you've outlined.
So cough up the really weird things you do.
Hmmm....even WEIRDER? I don't know if I can....
Oh--I have one. My #1 all time stress reliever is to pick and pop fleas off of cats. If I am petting a cat that has fleas, I do it without thinking, and I can always find them. I am a master at it, and I have been doing it since I was like 4 years old. Some call me the flea-whisperer.
weird things we have in common: #2, #3, #4 (sort of, see, if I chew something on the right side one bite, I have to chew something on the left side for the next, etc...), #6 (but it's a wisdom tooth, and it's much larger than a strawberry seed...more like a carroway seed...)
Woo! Weird! Yay!
