    I don't remember what year it was, sometime in the last couple years anyway, I had a dream about a massive flood covering 3 states, 3 nights in a row. After the third night there was flooding throughout many states, including TN.

    I used to do paranormal investigations with my friends when I was 17-19. I had a still camera, a video camera, and an EMF. I've got evidence of actual paranormal activity, and one picture of an actual apparition. That same night that we caught the apparition, my friend's car started acting up. A month later, it stopped working (wouldn't turn over) and she took it to 4 different mechanics. No one could figure out what was wrong with it.

    I can't wiggle my toes separately. If one moves, they all move.
    I also just discovered that my second and third toe on my left foot are a part of the same joint. Not really webbed, per say, but like it was one toe that split down the middle and became two.
    (and yes, both of my second toes are longer than the rest and I also love bacon!)

    I tried to kill myself 4 times between the ages of 14 and 22. Obviously I was caught each time, thank God.
    I was a prescription pain killer addict from the ages of 19 until 22. I've been clean from everything for almost 2 years now. I rarely take aspirin.

    I make people speak in tongues when I sing during praise & worship.

    I have never broken a bone.
    My parents have the same birthday (June 4th), and they are two years apart. My parents and I all have birthdays in June (2 weeks apart), and my brother and sister have birthdays in March (2 weeks apart).

    And, before I keep rambling, when I had to get my wisdom teeth removed (all four at the same time) they put me on laughing gas to calm my nerves, and I started to have an out-of-body experience before they put me under. I could feel myself leaving my body. When I explained that to the technician, she went ahead and put me under. Damn her.

    I've been hit by cars five times, and was once run over by an ambulance.

    Me Too!!! LOL

    I have a birthmark on my left elbow area that my youngest daughter inherited. She has the same one. My oldest daughter has a white birthmark on her stomach near her bikini line. All the time I tried getting one in the tanning beds and hers is natural. Lol

    I had an extra pinky toe when I was born. The doc removed it with a piece of string (it had no bone).

    I dreamed how my youngest was going to die before she was born. She was supposed to die at 8 months. She is still alive and I worry constantly.

    I took ambien to sleep when pregnant with my oldest, One night I didnt fall asleep and was terrified of a taco bell cup. I decided then and there that no matter how many sleepless nights til her birth I wouldnt take any more. The cup described my death from start to finish and how he was going to gut me and kill my unborn child. Terrifying isnt even a word to describe how scared I was. It is funny now, but still scares me. LOL.

    My mom and I have the same freckle on the palm of our right hand, right in the same exact spot. It's crazy.

    I always hear these weird stories from people who have taken ambien. I will never, ever take it based on that alone.

    Was that all the same incident? Would make for an interesting tale.

    I went 10 straight days of no sleep before I asked my doc about giving me something. She gave me the lowest dose because I was pregnant. I quit that night and even on insomniac nights I wont take anything. This was also before they had the Controlled Release one so maybe that fixed it...I still aint gonna take it! lol

    I'm allergic to liquor (not joking)

    oh wow!!!!

    I worked with someone like that. She would break out in hives.

    Yeah, same thing happens to me. It's really no fun.

    does this include beer and wine?

    Everyone I know thinks i'm weird for this- but I don't like ANY condiments (other than occasionally ketchup) Salads- i've NEVER used dressing, never will. Mustard, mayo, relish- anything else you want to mention- Don't like em won't eat them (some I haven't tried- but yes I know I don't like them) LOL

    I'm a native spanish speaker, but I'm fluent in several languages and work as a Russian linguist.

    I also did professional ballet for ten years! That one is a little random, lol.

    I'm that way too! Except I only like BBQ sauce. Ranch, mayo, french dressing, ugh.

    I name my cars after Latino men. Not intentionally; it just happens that way (I currently drive Mario, before that it was Diego...)

    My car's name is Blanca!

    I've had some odd experiences in life, here are a few:

    -I delivered my oldest son at college in the university bookstore. He was 2 months premature and came right out of me. He survived! though he was in the NICU for a while. He's now a senior in high school :smile:

    -When I was a child I had a psychic once tell me that all of the important men in my life would be scorpios...Turned out she was right. My father, my husband, my sons are all Scorpios! Even weirder, both my sons were preemies. Oldest son was 2 months premature, youngest was 1 month premature. If they had made their due dates they would have been different signs *cues spooky music*

    A few more...I have never had a Big Mac! Most Americans I tell this to act like this is so strange. When I was a kid my parents rarely took us to McDonald's and when they did got us a regular burger and fries. Then I became a vegetarian at 14, so by the time I had a job and could buy my own food I wasn't eating meat. I stayed a vegetarian until I was 38 (I'm 40 now). Since resuming eating meat I mostly eat birds and seafood, I have found that red meat does not agree with my stomach. I do have a little bacon now and then, and meatballs every once in a while. The thought of eating a Big Mac kinda grosses me out, but I think I should get one at some point in time lest my U.S citizenship get revoked LOL

    - I legally changed my last name to something I made up. I had to go to court and explain why. There were other people there changing their last names, and they were stunned that I was 'allowed' to do that. LOL you can change your name to whatever you want, as long as you're not doing it for shady purposes.
  • Also, my parents were drug addicts most of my life and I grew up with my grandparents. Weird, but true. I meet a lot of people with alcoholic parents but never drug addicts!

    I was raised by my grandparents for the exact same reason too!

  • I would much rather live somewhere secluded, like the middle of a mountain, than live in the metropolitan city I live in right now. Shocking because in high school, when I did live in a rural area, I thought that I wanted to live in a city. Now I see how wrong I was!

    not really anything interesting.... but odd i can do :D

    apparently its odd that i can only eat weetabix made with hot water and a splash of milk,
    i keep all of my books/dvds/cds in alphabetical order.... my feet are now a size smaller than they were 4 years ago. I have been on the hogwarts express (im cool...), i had a short story published when i was 11, i like gnomes, and owls, and my cat is called pixie!

    i have an irrational fear that i will wake up blind one day.... even though my eyesight is near perfect... (my grandad did have glaucoma but thats only something i learnt recently long after the fear began).

    The one thing i am most proud of i did all on my own and is something i will never utter in real life.... i beat depression!

  • I have an extra thoracic vertebra, and if I didn't have it, I would be at least 2 inches shorter than I am (5'1 --> 4'11)
    I also have scoliosis, caused by the extra vertebra, and a fainting disorder that was literally caused by my long-term boyfriend and I's relationship ending.

    I haven't seen my natural hair color in three years... and I never want to see it again, if I can help it.

    I'm the only person I know who doesn't enjoy pedicures, unless I'm giving one to myself.
