Nine Weird Things You Should Know About Me


Slackermommy tagged me for a meme. For whatever reason, this one was hard. I know that I am weird. So, picking just 9 things should've been easy. However, I had to call on Ravioli to help me narrow it down a bit.

1) (just like Slackermommy) I am a serial picker (pimples, cradle cap, ear wax). I just can't help myself & felt very relieved when I read someone else is like this as well.

2) I can only eat eggs with toast. I saw George Carlin live in 1996 . He was doing this bit about eggs being liquid chickens. Ever since then, I cannot eat eggs without toast.

3) I wake up singing songs that I haven't heard in years. And they're weird songs at that.

4) I 'play this game' inside of my head (since I was a little girl) whereby I'll pull apart a word I've just heard and make as many words as I can from the 'original' word.

5) I like the smell of bleach and gasoline.

6) I get freaked out when walking down bleachers. I have a fear of heights & I always feel like I'm going to tumble down, out of control when walking down bleachers.

7) I enjoy operating heavy equipment (Bobcat's especially.....but things like tractors, forklifts, etc). My life will not be complete until I OWN my very own Bobcat.

8) As stated before, I am a music Nazi. As Ravioli says, I have a disdain for music that "I" don't like.

9)Read this and pick one to insert to #9. I can't think. There are just too many weird things.

8 ripples in the pond:

This was a hard meme but after reading everyone's I would have to say that I take the cake on weird.

Walking down bleachers freaks me out too. Liquid chickens? That's gross. I hope I can eat an egg again.

OMG! The bleacher thing is so real! I have visions of my body all twisted and contorted lying at the bottom. So, I inch down them one step at a time like a toddler who just learned how to walk. Too funny! And the head games with the words? We must be twins!

Ok, the chicken/egg reference just grossed me out. *lol* Thank goodness I'm an eggwhite only eater, too.

Whew, so it's not just me!

"I inch down them one step at a time like a toddler..."
That is SOOOO me. Ravioli makes fun of me whenever I have to toddle down the bleachers. It really does freak me out.

And I was hestitant to put the egg thing out there - because it is just that gross. Damn George Carlin!

I am such a picker. My husband makes so much fun of me for it, but draws the line when I try to pick some hangnail or whatever on my children.

Tabba said...

Jen - Quirky?....ABSOLUTELY! I LOVE it!

Oh the joys - my husband always rolls his eyes when he sees me coming at him. He says the only time I 'touch' him is to pick....The kids get pretty sick of me picking at them...I try to control it! I really do!
