    I am skeeved out to the point of panic attacks by wet and gritty locker room floors. Just the thought of putting my bare feet on a dirty, wet tile floor makes me feel nauseous. I literally wear flip flops right up to the very edge of the pool because I won't even walk on a wet pool deck.

    Yep! I cant STAND to get ANYTHING on my feet. I always wear something on my feet, even in the house, if I get crumbs or dirt on my bare feet, im like....PUUKKEEEEE. lol

    I'm sooo happy I'm not the only one with this ''problem''! xD

    I've lived in 34 different places, including 2 countries.

    I suffer PTSD and currently don't work because of it.

    I will advocate for animals, children and people with a disability to the point of being taken to court, but I have no self belief.

    I volunteer at my local animal refuge several times a week, and believe I get far more out of it than I put in.

    I was once (before I developed PTSD) invited to the Mayor's Xmas party for my good work in the community.

    Even when it's scorching hot outside, I'm not able to sleep without a very thick blanket on.

    If I forget my watch at home, I'm capable of turning on the spot and going back for it even when it means I'll be late to wherever I was going in the first place. However, I can forget my phone and survive the day just fine.

    I have a genius level IQ and have no social skills. But, no one knows that because I mimic and predict the behavior of everyone around me. I use my smarts to fake social skills lol.

    this fascinates me...I bet you are one interesting person. More so than you realize?

    I maintained a 3.5 gpa, hardly studying, though out my college days....
  • I have a navel piercing. I'm probably the last person that people would expect to have an unusual piercing-- totally a typical clean-cut good girl type :)

    It's fun to twist stereotypes sometimes!

    I am the most anti-social person that I know. I don't even think I like people at all. But I have a lot of musician/art friends/acquaintances and go to ALL of their gigs and hug and smile at everyone, while inside I am trying to hide in a hole.
  • haha, I'm a bit the same way... :P

    I have an irrational fear of leaving the closet door open in the bedroom when I go to bed.... I completely blame it on my brothers... they rigged our bedroom door so they could open and close it from their beds (I'm the youngest of five boys)

    I can't sleep with the closet door open either. My husband laughs at me and tells me he won't let the monsters get me.

    I have very very vivid dreams. There are times that they tend to be full length "movies" that my brain has created. (not movies I have seen..Movies that I have created) Sometimes the same "movie" plays again in my head as if im making changes to it. STrange

    I absolutely CANNOT go to sleep in a room that has a turned-off TV. We used to have a TV in our bedroom and when my husband was out of town I would either have to leave the TV on all night or cover it with a blanket. I ended up making him take it out.

    When I was younger I was watching an episode of "Unsolved Mysteries" and there was a story about a "ghost face that appeared in the TV". Pretty sure that's what triggered this lol.

    O, and anything that has a ton of tiny holes makes me ridiculously sick to my stomach.

    I'm sort of still scared of the dark; I also have to close the closet door when I sleep, and no matter how hot it is in my room I always pull the blanket up over my head. Not sure how that's going to help me if someone breaks in, but it makes me feel better. And I still sleep with the blanket I got when I was a baby...it's seen better days, lol. I tuck it under my head and I've done that for so many years that I have serious trouble sleeping on just a pillow.

    My house is haunted. The Discovery channel wanted to do a story on it but I refused out of fear that I'd never be able to sell my house if things got worse. Luckily, 'things' have calmed down in the past year!

    My husband could have written this. Maybe with the exception of being able to mimic. He is brilliant but sometimes makes bad first impressions.

    My blood type is O-
    Only 15% of the world population has O- blood. I'm screwed if I ever need a blood transplant...LOL

    When my daughter spends the weekend at her dads, I sleep with the TV on in my room, set to the Disney Channel. I don't know why. She couldn't protect me from anything with her scary butt!!! LOL I choose the Disney Channel with the reasoning that I won't wake up to any crazy movies, like Paranormal Activity or something.

    you know how certain things can instantly make you feel calm and secure? My thing is to snuggle into a freshly washed cow (yes, that's right, a cow...I grew up on a dairy farm) the smell and slightly damp warmth instantly makes a peaceful calm wash over me.

    I'm scared of revolving doors. Terrified of them. I always feel like I'm going to get stuck inside them. or the "door" behind me is going to clip my heel and take a chunk out of my foot.

    The worst part, is I got married in a building with a revolving door. It was the only way to get inside, and I had to hold up my dress/train and walk in 4 in heels while going through this freaky door, all the while keeping a smile on my face and not letting my entire family and in-laws see me wig out and completely lose it on my wedding day!

    Alright so one day I got in trouble for pulling the fire alarm, so I had to be in for a Saturday detention....with this geek, sporto/jock, princess, and some weird chick that hardly ever talked. It was a long day.....seemed like the clock was at least 20 minutes behind.....so I figured out a few ways to get around cause I left some good stuff in my locker.....and of course everyone wanted to follow along.....so we're running the halls hoping like mad that Vernon wouldn't catch us. I got caught, and it was a little bit weird after that.....had to go through the ceiling ducts to get back to everyone.....but I gotta admit, it was a fun day.....that princess I was telling you about ended up giving me her earring and we ended up together to spite her parents. We all learned a lot about ourselves. Princess learned that being popular isn't really all it's cracked up to be. Sporto learned that he should stop caring about what his parents think. Geek learned that not everything revolves around being smart. Our compulsive liar friend learned that she can truly be herself and be loved. As for me, I learned that being me isn't so bad after all, even if I'm destined to be a criminal. After it was all said and done.....I walked the football field with my fist in the air \m/
