Tell Me Something Surprising About Yourself

I see dead people

So does my twin brother!! However, he is a mortician and you probably meant it differently

Love all of these facts about everyone, an interesting group of people we have here

Yeah I didn't mean it in that way although his way of seeing them is probably a little less unsettling:) (although believe it or not, working with a dead body freaks me out a little more then seeing a spirit)

I have grown up seeing them. After a major car accident in 1984 where almost all 6 people in the car would have been killed. I was in 2nd grade when that happened. I also can see my future flash before my eyes, but have never been able to see what it was until I am there. :-(

i have been hit by a car 4 times and never broken a bone in my body before just my heart :brokenheart:

Buddy, you've really gotta learn to look both ways before crossing!!! Just kidding... I'm glad you're okay! That's crazy! :flowerforyou:

I 've lived in 2 countries.

I'm Mazeophobic.... I have a paralyzing fear of getting lost while driving. When I first moved to where I am now and didn't know my way around I went through a severe depression because I couldn't go very far from home. I made friends with a girl from my church that lived nearby and rode with her everywhere for a while. I've been here almost 10 years now and things are so much better, but there are still places I am afraid to go because they are unfamiliar. I do have a GPS now so that helps. If I get lost I can just tell it to show me the way home...

I do that all the time I call it the scenic route

*I have this thing where my arm span is greater than my height and it makes me extra flexible
*I have NEVER peed outside and I would like to go to my grave that way.
*I clean my house in the buff (or close to it usually)
*My daughter was conceived on leap year day 2007
*I do a mean Scottish accent
*One time I saw Kathy Griffin walking down the street in Austin and she gave me a dirty look for staring at her. LOL.

Leap years are on even years e.g. 2008, 2012, 2016, 2020

Good catch, it was 2008

i decided to learn russian but didnt get past learning the alphabet So, that means i can read the words but i have no idea what they mean lol.

The responses to this are great. Here are mine.....

I will only eat m&m's in pairs that are the same color.
I had 2 children, got married and divorced all before I was 21.
My middle name is spelled funny.....Jayne
I can bend my thumbs backwards to touch my wrist.

I can do that with Arabic

While in High School, I worked at Knott's Berry Farm, as a train robber. :glasses:

I have been able to taste red #40 food coloring since I was a kid and it tastes like hairspray. I refuse to eat anything with it because ...well...who wants a mouthfull of hairspray?

love this thread

-i don't swear...ever, most i will say is crap.
-i have never broken any bones in my body
-my toilet paper roll has to hang with the end under :P
-the tip of my tongue used to be square (thanks to some invisalign braces, it's now normal)
-i have no problem watching nurses put needles in my arm, and in fact, was bummed that all but one of my piercings are in places i couldn't watch as they did it, and the one i would have been able, they made me close my eyes thinking i would be squeamish about it.
-i have such bad stage fright i shake, yet have no problem singing karaoke.

-i don't swear...ever, most i will say is crap.

I wish I could say the same for myself. I curse like a sailor. :frown:

Ya swearing or I should say NOT swearing is a constant battle for me.

O te he here's one. LOL I sleep scream. I literally scream and cry in my sleep. LOL I wake up hubbs and whisper hunny you;re snoring and he wakes me up and whispers baby you're screaming again.

Also, I have a weird compulsion to match my panties to whatever clothes I'm wearing. If I can't match them exactly, I try to go with a neutral color like white or black. I'm always afraid that if i don't, I'll get into an accident and the medics will think poorly of me for having mismatched clothes and undergarments. Crazy, I know.

I like to do that too! But not for paramedics just for myself just for fun :-)

omg me too!

well, my thought is that other people swear more than enough to make up for me. lol. my boyfriend will even swear for me when he hears my pitiful non-swear curses over something.
