34 Weird Things About Me...
I turned 34 years old yesterday, so I thought I would make a list of 34 weird things about me, that you might not know…
1. Classical music gives me a headache, causes me to feel frustrated, and anxious. (Not sure why?)
2. I have to sleep with my hair in a ponytail, I don't like hair in my face while I sleep.
3. My hair is so thick it takes 2 hairdressers to blow-dry it at the salon. (Which I go to twice a year at most!)
4. I still sleep with my green blanket I had as a teenager.
5. I don't like to sleep with socks on.
6. If I sing in front of people, I would prefer to have a large audience rather than a small one (the farther from the audience the better).
7. I love to bake, but I do not love to cook.
8. I hate folding laundry, I feel it is all for nothing.
9. I don't love to read novels, I wish I did, but I don't.
10. I check the News on-line about 10 times a day.
11. If there is a choice between chocolate and something else edible, I will ALWAYS choose chocolate.
12. I don't like wearing jewelry on my hands, or arms -- it gets irritating.
13. I am afraid of the ocean. Along with that fear, I hate boats.
14. My first boating experience was on a small fishing boat, on the ocean, in Alaska. I got very sea sick, took a nap, and I woke-up in my own vomit. (Perhaps that is why I hate boats!)
15. I am afraid of wild animals, they keep me from enjoying camping and other outdoor activities.
16. I love to chase storms. If there is a thunderstorm, I will run to it, not from it.
17. I am a daydreamer, especially in classroom environments. It is really hard for me to focus.
18. I love the magic of Disneyland -- my love runs deep, really deep inside of me. Just thinking about it makes my heart flutter.
19. I hate spiders. In Alaska they did not bother me, because they are not poisonous there. But now, living in the lower 48 -- they send shivers down my spine. Eek!
20. I have really bad handwriting. I got an "N" in handwriting in elementary school ("Needs Improvement"). No matter how hard I try, I cannot make my penmanship beautiful -- it looks like chicken scratch.
21. I don't like mint candy, or mint ice-cream.
22. I never attended the Singles Ward for church, I just went to the activities. I tried to keep church and flirting separate. ;-)
23. I have never thought of myself as a very "logical thinking" person, but I got an A+ in my college Logic class -- it just made sense to me. (I took Logic instead of Math, because Math does NOT make sense to me!)
24. I do not tan, I just fry to a crisp, blister, and then peel.
25. I don't like watching sports on TV.
26. I have had the same e-mail address since I was 18.
27. I was only recently introduced to a flat iron a few years ago -- I could have really used one in high school!
28. I don't care about fashion. I don't want to look gross, but I don't care about the latest trends.
29. I used to wear glasses when I worked in front of a computer "blue screen," but I don't need them anymore.
30. I only started plucking my eyebrows after I got married -- Charles plucks them for me. :-)
31. I have really big wrist bones (bumps on my wrists) which make it so I cannot wear a watch or bracelets.
32. Smells can really bother me -- especially perfumes. Perfumes can make me feel dizzy and faint. Ugh.
33. I could listen to Nat King Cole music all day. (And I do!)
34. I was born on Groundhog's day, and I disagree with the rodent that predicted 6 more weeks of winter!

I could never do # 10 just for my sense of peace and sanity. The rare news I get is on the radio in the car. You make sure you tell me when the when we should head for the hills because I definitely won't know what is going on! ;)
ReplyDeleteFun stuff! I hope this doesn't get to be a trend! Not sure I could come up with fifty something things on my birthday!! Love you!! Hope that your birthday was the best!
ReplyDeleteI would like to contest #24. I am certain that I have seen your skin a slight brown color before on a summer past. I think you did brown slightly after two or three good summer burns the same year we did the Pioneer Trek.
