Apparently I’m weird, complete with pictures!
I was tagged to post 7 weird things about me, and I am sure that there must be more than only 7 weird things about me but for some reason I could only think of 2, so I asked my friend…
Me: Hey, what’s weird about me?Friend: Like only 1 thing?
Me: Why, am I that weird??
Friend: Well, I was just asking… Your laugh?
Me: My laugh? Is it weird? Or just loud?
Friend: Well you laugh at everything, makes me feel like I am funny, when I am not!
Me: Aww, you are funny!
Clearly she was no help! But I did remember that although we always go to the movies together, we never want to see the same movie, because, apparently I have weird taste in movies, or bad taste, either way, I’ll start there.
1) I’ve been told that I have weird taste in movies, to the extend that no one ever wants to go with, except maybe my sister, if she has nothing else to do! Usually I go with my friend, who I drag with me when I feel like I need to get out, although she has to pick the movie, because things like Baby Mama and Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants don’t interest her. (Did I just admit to seeing those movies?)
Every time we go, it’s usually after 10pm and I am always late so the last time I actually showed up on time, but alas, they were still standing there waiting for me!
I took a photo of them standing there, which they thought was weird, maybe this could be 1a – I take pictures of anything (although not too weird if you’re a blogger!) and almost always have my camera on hand.
2) I don’t own a brush or a comb or any other type of hair-smoothing-and-detangling device although I have long hair. It’s not that I don’t believe in such apparatus, it’s that I cannot find the perfect brush, and I refuse to settle! In the meantime, I just borrow, or umm, just, you know, use my fingers!
3) I like to think of my cooking as a super-power! Uh, seriously!
You see, it may not be exceptional or spectacular, but I can do it very fast and I never know exactly what ingredients I am going to use until the last moment, and no one ever knows how it’s going to turn out – it’s always a surprise! However, most of the times it’s pretty good, but occasionally it does totally suck – so if you’re ever adventurous enough to experience my cooking, be warned!
I also have a sick obsession with spices, (2a maybe?) as in I LOVE the spice aisle, as in it’s probably the one section I spend the most time in, as in every time I go to the grocery store I must buy at least one type of spice.
Behold!
4) I have a deep fascination with writing equipment, like, pens and markers and such. Not pencils so much though, but give me a pen that writes really well and smoothly, and I’ll be your BFF any day!
5) I LOVE power tools! Ya, you read that right, and that’s not to be confused with “I know how to use power tools”, because I really don’t, it’s just that I am sorta passionate about them, especially a drill and table saw! In fact, I’ve always wanted a table saw and I may or may not bring up this topic every time I visit a hardware store.
6) I have a love/hate relationship with cell phones. I love the devices, I love gadgets, but I really don’t like talking on cell phones and I’ve noticed that mine is rarely charged. You know when you sometimes call people and then say, in frustration, when they don’t answer, “why do you have a cell phone if you don’t answer it?!” – that would be me!
In all honesty, I think that business should only be conducted via email, and perhaps even all conversations, I LOVE email! And although you may think that I would be a text messaging kind of person, I am a dreadfully sucky text-messager. The other day I send a text message without any message at all because I pressed “send” before I even typed what I need to say, but luckily if you do that, it sends a message saying “call me”, so it worked out and that is now my preferred way of text messaging!
7) If I am working a lot, I can forget to sleep. In fact before “the funk”, I could just work continuously until I literally passed out on my desk in front of my computer – this has happened multiple times! I actually get so tired that I’ve been known to fall asleep mid-conversation, or even while on the phone!! I may have an ever so slight problem!
