Weird Things About Me

I think it's time I tell you some things about me that might be interesting. This is for entertainment purposes only, not to be used for blackmail or humiliation of any kind.

  • I really don't like teddy bears. I must be one of the few people in this category, but I really don't like them very much. The toys, prints, pictures, fabrics, anything with bears. There are exceptions, of course, but as a general rule, I prefer dogs or bunnies.
  • Don't like broccoli? Only eat it 'cuz it's healthy? Well, I actually LIKE broccoli! Really! Doesn't even need cheese!
  • When I see a lost dog, I will try to catch it and call the number on the tag. I've done this several times already. I even housed a dog while I put up flyers over the neighborhood looking for it's home. So far, only happy endings.
  • I don't mean this in any kind of sleazy way, but I sleep in the nude. I can't stand sleeping in clothes, not even socks. It started when I gained weight a few years ago and none of my clothes fit well enough for me to want to sleep in them comfortably. Now I can't sleep dressed unless absolutely necessary.
  • I'm not afraid of spiders unless I'm sleeping. I'm not sure why, but I have this fear of spiders crawling on my hand if it touches the wall while I sleep. Not ants, not bugs, not something that has actually crawled on my hand while I slept, but (very specifically) spiders.
  • I'm addicted to the Discovery Channel. I thought I broke this habit years ago when we couldn't afford cable, but now that we have it again, I find it more addicting than ever. Deadliest Catch, Mythbusters, It Takes a Thief, and on and on and on.
  • I'm the only person in my family who doesn't wear glasses or contacts.
  • I met my husband on the internet.
  • I didn't go to college until I was 25. I was 31 when I got married, 32 when I became a mom, and I'm 35 right now and I have no idea what to do with my life other than what I'm doing right now. I need a goal.

More weird things to follow, I'm sure. But now you know me a little better. I'm sure you're glad. I will write more soon. Oh, and BTW, I know I need another picture of my neighborhood for comparison to my last post, but the batteries died today. I will wait till more are conceived and born to me, then take more pictures to post here. Yada yada.

This is your WEIRD list? Boy, I've got you beat by a country mile. Hee.
Also, I hope if any of my dogs ever get lost, they're found by someone like you.

I can top what I wrote--I really can! I just need to write about myself before the medications started working--it probably won't be as weird if you're already familiar with bipolar disorder, but we are a looney, looney family!
