After the "does that make me crazy" post, this may be redundant. :laugh: BUT it doesn't have to be a weird habit... it can be a weird job, something totally nuts that happened to you, a unique medical condition, a body contortion, etc. You MUST name seven things :happy: and they all must be true.

I'll list mine in just a moment. :smile:

    1. I was once trapped inside of an ATM, with my husband, for over an hour. It wasn't inside of the machine, it was in one of those 'open 24 hours' kinds. We went to the ATM late, and there was a garbage can in the doorway. This isn't safe, because the ATM is designed so that you need to use your card to access the area, to avoid getting mugged. So I, genius that I am, took the trash can out of the doorway. Apparently the can was there because the inside lock was not working properly, and locked us in. There was a phone in there, and I eventually figured out a way to get an outside line, and called my mom. She got there, I slide my card under the door to her and she swiped us out.

    2. A weatherman on national TV called me a *kitten* for an email that I sent in asking him about all of the trips that he gets to go on. I asked if he gets to take his wife and family on his mini-vacations, and I guess that really pissed him off. If you watch, it was Mitch from The Daily Buzz... a show out of Orlando Florida.

    3. I already mentioned this in the "crazy" thread, but I am a skilled lucid dreamer, meaning that I not only am aware that I am dreaming when I dream, but that I can control my dreams to do whatever I want in them. Imagine the Star Trek "holodeck". It's like that. :smile:

    4. I was a phone psychic for a brief stint. It paid $11 per hour.

    5. I used to be a telemarketer, and sold credit cards to people. I liked to screw with people when they were jerks, too.

    6. I've only "technically" been to one concert in my life... it was for Big and Rich. But they were SO late arriving at the venue (about 90 minutes late) and wouldn't play, "Save a Horse, Ride a Cowboy" in the first few songs, so I left, pissed off.

    7. When I was in sixth grade, I wrote a letter to Neil Patrick Harris, and got a postcard back for him in the summer between 8th and 9th grade, but it just had, "Best Wishes, Neil Patrick Harris", written on it.
  • haha! How fun. I dont know if i can think of 7 WEIRD things...but I'll try

    1. i can bend my left pointer finger all the way back and touch my hand
    2. i love office/school supplies. I probably have 15 planners and a gazillion pens laying around.
    3. when i get excited or amped about something i have to do this weird high pitched squeal/laugh.
    4. i have 5 flat moles on my right forearm that look like a constellation
    5. i like to accessorize my hair :)
    6. i cant dance! .. at least not without embarrassing myself
    7. i love the smell of gasoline.

    1. I don't own a TV and haven't really watched any in 10 years.
    2. I wipe the spoon with a napkin after I measure my tablespoon of olive oil before proceed to eating my salad to save on the calories (cos every drop of oil is loaded) :laugh:
    3. I went to Paris with my mum when I was 14 and our camera broke on top of the Eiffel tower. We bought a new camera in Paris and this one was stolen on my prom night. So I have no pictures neither from the Eiffel Tower, nor from my prom.. I am planning to visit Paris again after I lose half of the extra weight, so I'll take new pics there but prom night will never happen again :ohwell:
    4. I started smoking at the age of 11. (it's not even illegal in my country and most kids start very early, which is horrible) I was at my grandparents' village and all kids in the neighboorhood smoked so I decided to be 'hot' and smoke too. However, my smoking history only lasted 1 day because my grandmother caught me in the act right the same day. It hurt my kiddy conscience so deep I was unable to smoke ever again. Really lucked out on this one. :smile:
    5. My first kiss was in a small forest in the town of my other grandmother and guess what that day she went to look for me cos she was worried knowing I was out with this guy and caught me, too. :laugh:
    6. I am addicted to the smell of soap. I would buy new ones and pile them in my wardrobe just to open the box of each and be able to smell their aroma. :blushing:
    7. During my freshman year at university I changed my dwelling 5 times within about 2 months time and in 2 of these cases I was kicked out by my landlords because I was a bit wild at the time - the first place I made a party, the landlords were young and cool and joined us there but I drank too much and vomitted all over the place (I'm not sure how you clean red wine from a carpet) so they kicked me out next morning :laugh: . The second time I broke the door of my roommate's room (we shared one flat, different rooms) cos the beetch locked the gas stove inside after we had a general fight and I wanted to use it. She went ahead and told the landlords I was a psycho and they kicked me out the same evening, so I had to find somewhere to sleep overnight... :ohwell:

    OMG, I wasn't sure if I can find 7 things and now I can go on... Does that make me crazy? :embarassed:

    1. I broke my tailbone on a 'date' in HS....at a Huddle House....at 2 am....:noway: because my brothers were there and wanted to dance to whatever song was on the Juke Box. While trying to get away from their horrendous dancing, I tripped over one's foot and fell FLAT on my butt! :sad: VERY painful!

    2. I used to quad skate. :noway: :laugh: It's like regular roller skating but with a shorter boot and wider wheels that are set further apart.

    3. I used to HATE country music - until my sister took me out line dancing - now I :heart: it!

    4. I can make a 3 leaf clover shape out of my tongue. :tongue:

    Man reading these I may have a boring life... But I will see what I come up with.
    1.) I love to sail, Though this might not seem odd, If you look at the amount of women that sail they are outnumbered by men. ALOT! IE Our cruisers club has 36 members. 6 of them are women.
    2.) I met Conway Twitty when his bus driver almost ran me over. Nicest man that I ever met. And a MUCH longer story then I can put here.
    3.) I have a golden Retriever that walks himself. Meaning that he HAS to hold his leash in his mouth when we go for a walk, and gets upset when you try to hold the other end.
    4.) I have saved two kids from drowning and I have never been a life guard.
    5.) My Manly Man went to school with Warren Buffets son. ( But that is a thing for him I think.)
    6.) I like to make up fun ways to walk farther each day.
    7.) Deathly afraid of heights. BUT I did skydive once. I thought I was going to die, and as interesting as it was... I will NOT be doing it ever again.
    WOW, I did get 7. Well with maybe the exception of one...

    Let me see.........


    1. My elbows are double jointed so they bend weird.
    2. My best friend in grade school nicknamed me "Veg" because I always told her she was fruit, and then my best friend in high school nicknamed me "E" because my name is Erin with an E and she says Elvis' nickname was E and his middle name was Aaron. (even I think that one is a little weird)
    3. I like the smell of nail polish remover, turpentine, and gasoline.
    4. When I was pregnant with my oldest, she sat on a nerve for a week that made my left foot stay numb for the whole week, and then I walked even funnier. No matter what I did, she wouldn't move!
    5. In a rebellious mood in high school, I went to a friend's house to spend the night and we pierced my left ear 6 times, and the right ear only twice.
    6. I can't stand it when my canned goods are out of place in my pantry, and I have to stop everything and fix them before I can move on. :noway: OCD anyone?
    7. I got bitten by a timber rattlesnake when I was 7 years old and by the time they figured out what was wrong with me they told my mom that my leg needed to be amputated. Mom refused and I ended up getting better after a stint in the Intensive Care Unit. Way to go Mom!

    1. I absolutely ADORE bugs and spiders (in fact, I have a tattoo of a crab spider inside my wrist and I currently have a pet Emperor Scorpion)
    2. BUT.... My arch-nemesis on this earth is the cockroach... which I am deathly afraid of.
    3. I once caught a lizard and it was stuck in my hair for a couple hours... I was a kid and I continued playing, thinking he jumped off my shoulder... lo and behold he crawls down my arm after making my head itch later in the afternoon!
    4. I like to listen to foreign music, even if I can't tell what language the lyrics are in.
    5. The smell of new plastic and rubber drives me crazy - in a good way! I sniff new shoes, tires, rubber mats, plastic shower curtains, beach balls, etc. I just love new plastic.
    6. I am also a lucid dreamer. I have also died many, many times in my dreams and it never bothers me. In fact, sometimes I intentionally do it... not because I have a morbid fascination with death, but because it literally feels like nothing you can experience in waking life.
    7. I have a dead kitten in my freezer. He died last April and I haven't gotten around to cremating him. He was a bottle fed rescue that just failed to thrive after 10 days... and when I get him cremated, I plan to stuff his ashes in a rubber balloon and sew it inside a stuffed kitty that looks like him. Now... THAT is pretty weird.
