Wednesday Wackyness!!

March 30, 2006 – 6:00 am

I am recalling an interview that I had a couple months ago. I was asked what were my weaknesses were. I should have said "job interviews."

So in this post I am pulling back the curtain. Here are the querks.

1. I still giggle when I or anyone around me passes gas.

2. I rarely scrub the toilet. (Throw lots of bleach into it, hoping it will do the scrubbing for me). It usually does.

3. Always on time by twenty minutes or late by four minutes — there doesn’t seem to be any variations of this weirdness.

4. Love the Scouting Program. I am a cub scout den leader’s assistant.

5. Have great respect for those who can keep their cool in an intense argument.

6. Never got an A in a class that wasn’t PE, Art, Seven Habits for Highly effective people( I know I can’t believe that is a class!), Death and Dying(Health education Class).

7. I got a C- in Human Sexuality, failed Logical Decision Making (Psych 1230). My Band has hands full, as you can tell.

8. I am working on loosening my grip on the control I wish I had over everyone, before my children can really start to drive me crazy.

9. I take great pride in my vaccuming skills. It was the one and only rewarding house hold chore up until I started "flying".

10. I choose the TV shows my children watch based upon the scale of annoyance of the background music.

11. Ever since watching "Forrest Gump" I have run from my car to anywhere I go. Just so I can hear "Run Forrest" in my head.

12. I still bite my nails.

13. I still have muted thumbs that bend way far back.

14. Bubble baths are a good end to any day.

15. I am excited to go and read this entire blogg while the author goes "on break".

16. I love discussing religion in any mutually respectful atmosphere.

17. Hot showers or really cold ones are awesome!!

18. I doodle every chance I get, in any space I get.

19. I have a reading and math disorder. What is that?? I still am trying to figure it out. Pretty sure it could be the reason my senior year is taking three extra to finish LOL.

20. Diagnosed with ADD/ADHD over three times by different types of professionals. Guess it is official. Last time he added more diagnoses but I pretty much tuned him right out…….or I wasn’t paying attention. LOL!

21. I love microwaving peanut butter with chocolate chips sprinkled throughout and dipping gram crackers in it.

22. I can’t begin to tell you how desturbing it is when Dirt, Deoderant, and bread dough all taste familure. DON’T even ask!! YUCK!!

23. I still am a Tomboy. The perm is just a facade.

24. I Begged my mother and father for a puppy consistantly everyday for 6-7 years. Obsession is one of my favorite past times. Sorry MOM.

25. I don’t enjoy the company of cats.

There you have it the top 25 oddities.

There are so many more…… Do you dare share???

  2. Ok, here goes.. I’m an obsessive/ compulsive when it comes to my curling iron, clothes iron, and fires. Every morning (and I’m not even exaggerating) I have to check that I unplugged each of those items… at least 3 different times. Even if I make a mental note as I am unplugging said items “ok, curling iron is now unplugged”, I will still have to run back up to my room at least 2 more times (and the last one is as I’m getting in the car…)”oh wait, did I unplug my curling iron and clothes iron?” (because I then can’t remember if that was yesterday I made that mental note that it was unplugged) and make a last minute mad dash back up to check. Who needs an exercise program when you have my iron/ electrical/ unplugged problem?

    So, why the obsession? I am sure if I don’t unplug them, the one time I forget, our house will burn to the ground… and it would all be my fault! YIKES!!

    There…one of my many, hidden, embarrasing querks for all the world to see!! You did 25!! You brave soul you!! :-)

  3. Here are a few: I am OC about being punctual. This is a problem in Latin America since I am the only one who suffers from it. I love organizing but don’t love cleaning (loved your toliet entry). My ideal sleeping routine would be from 1 am to 9 am, this doesn’t work so well with kids. I have to exercise or I get a little depressed. I cannot sleep with anyone touching me.

  4. I totally do your #2 all the time. There is a reason I buy 2000 flushes things. Let’s see - my oddities. I like to even numbers of candy - like 4 M&M’s. I hate any form of salad dressing and will always gag at the smell. I love the smell of feet after being in leather shoes.

  5. I think I love you! LOL OK. I am afraid of the dark. Seriously. BUT! I have to have total and complete darkness to sleep. SO, I turn off the light, and RUN, really, really fast and JUMP onto the bed, cause, well, everyone knows the boogie man can’t get you while you are in bed. I fly too, most weeks, and I also love vacuming. I cannot sleep if there is no milk in the house. I hate sleeping with socks on. There’s scads more, I can’t think right now! LOL

  9. I travel in circles… it’s a little tough to explain but I’ll try. In order to get some place, you can rarely ever go there in a straight line because of streets and blocks and one ways yah-da yah-da… So if I kind of have to curve to get from point A to point B I go ahead and finish off the loop by not returning exactly the same way I came. I won’t do this is it means going waaaay out of my way, but I don’t mind going a few extra blocks if it means I can make a loop. It just feels better… driving, walking, on a bicycle… I like loops and circles.

  10. Ok, this is my 3rd comment on this post. I hope that’s not too tacky?! First, I wanted to make sure you were “ok” and all is well. There was no Friday Flip Up… and that’s not like you. So, just checking in! (today is Friday isn’t it?)

    Also, wanted to let you know I thought of you today. Think back to your post regarding why you named your site what you did. Picture in your head? When you posted that I could so relate! I am so clumsy!!

    So, today I fell down the stairs that go from our house down into our garage. I, of course, was busy looking for something in my purse and thought I was to the bottom. (I was NOT) I fell down, no.. let me rephrase that! I flew down the last 3 steps and sprawled onto the cement garage floor. My 8 year old daughter was there to witness all. I could hear the concern in her voice asking if I was ok. I coudn’t even respond to her because well, frankly, I was laughing so hard. How unbelievable! I was hurting like crazy (no serious damage… just old lady bones and muscles crying out at flying and landing and cement).

    I don’t know why but as I was lying there wondering when I should try to move and get up, laughing my lungs out… I thought of you. “Wouldn’t JD get a kick out of this??? Where is she when I need her? I could sure use someone here lauging “with” me. How utterly, ridiculously, amazingly funny that must have looked. Oh, she would have so appreciated that fall!”

    And so, I thought of you today. We are truly a “kindred spirit”. I fall, am in pain, so very thankful truly no one saw but my dauther, and instantly think of you. tee hee hee… what does that mean?

  17. Your blog is a great one. What really impresses me is that you are correctly mentioned that there are thousands of tools that are available to create a website or launch one but what matters is that you choose the right one, the one that gives you all that is actually needed.

  25. one wall. A bigger one with arms was near the middle of the room, and Perren Gebert was sitting in it, with a light flooding his face from a floor
    lamp with a big reflector in front of him. Standing closer in front of him was a wiry-looking man in his shirt sleeves with little fox ears and a
    Yonkers haircut. The guy on the chair that the sergeant had spoken to was in his shirt sleeves too, and so was Gebert.
