Tell me something odd about yourself

CT324

Hey ladies I am bored at work and thought this could be fun.  Tell us something about yourself that may be either funny, strange or weird.

I dont like it when the food on my plate touches each other.  The only food I mix are mashed potatos and peas. 

I can't leave the volume number on my car radio at 13.  I hate the number 13!

I eat my foods one at a time - usually vegetables first (get them out of the way), starches (potatoes, etc.) and then the main attraction - meat or fish.

I used to pass by my BF's house all the time when I was younger (this was before I knew him). My brother got Bar Mitzvahed at a now defunct temple that was right across the street from his house.

I also do that lol!  I am glad to know there are more people like me out there.  My friend's dad always tries to make me switch back and forth while I am eating, for some reason it drives him nuts.  I usually eat my favorite part of the dish first.

I have a hula-hoop award from summer camp for 4.5 hours of non-stop hula-hooping (man, my waist was skinny back then!)

I can move my eyes independently of the other when I want (no, I don't have a lazy eye).

I also eat foods one at a time.  Its weird to mix them.

I am so scared of mice I cry if I have to be around one. 

I love potatoes, an unreasonable amount.

I have a completely irrational fear of the grates on the bottom of the pool. 

Also, I LOVE to plan. Anything and everything.

I have to leave my radio volume on an even number. My only exception is if the odd number is my age so until March 7th, 23 is an acceptable volume.

I usually lock my truck 2+ times (it has to beep twice) whenever I leave it in a parking lot.

I can only eat Taco Bell with the spork. I can't stand eating anything from there with a normal fork. Same goes with a Wendy's frosty- has to be a Wendy's spoon and no, a plastic spoon out of the cupboard is not the same.

Ha I do this too!

Only a small handful know this and I MEAN small.....

I still have my binky from when I was a small child.  "Binky" is a baby blanket that is so worn and shredded that it basically looks like a big ball of string.  As a kid I used to love to dig my fingers into it and soon it became torn and like a massive ball of entwined string.  I keep it in a bag in the closet of my childhood room at my parents, I think that I might have it buried with me when I die.  LoL! At least that's what I tell my family when they ask me why I haven't thrown it away.  As an adult I sometimes still dig my fingers into it when I go visit my parents.  Hmm....

I'm OCD about my car.  I lock it like 4 times between the parking space and my office.  Sometimes I lock it from inside my office (my parking spot is literally outside my door...like 10 feet away...).

I have an irrational fear of moths.

I have my baby blanket and stuffed animal from when I was a baby and they live in a bag in my closet and when I'm upset or sad I pull them out.

I am deathly afraid of crickets and cockroaches.

I hate manholes/sidewalk grates and I avoid stepping on them.

I hate when my food touches and I really want to invest in plates with the dividers...hahaha

deburnin

I can hyper extend my elbows so far they look broken.

I also hate when my food touches.

I'm scared of dirty water. It gives me the creeps.

I <strong>love</strong> shopping for greeting cards!!

My mom & I were born at the exact same time - day, hour, MINUTE....34 years apart.

I also still have my shredded up baby blanket "Teddy" (he's a blanket in the shape of a teddy bear face with rainbow hair?!) which I used to hold up to my nose while I sucked my thumb. YUP. Apparently hanging on to these is not too odd though??

I wear a pair of Chucks (converse) almost every day. Including with dresses/skirts.

loopy82

This past winter I worked at a greeting card store during the holidays. I knew I was safe working there and wouldn't be tempted to spend money. It worked.

My ears are really sensitive. If cotton balls or paper towel are squished I will get chills all over my body.

I also eat my foods one at a time and don't like them to mix.

tafft1

I also eat foods one at a time , touching is okay though

I eat fast food cheeseburgers weird. I nibble all around the edges. Then I take off the top of the bun and eat that , then eat the bottom , then the patty. Been doing it since I was a kid..no idea why.

Anything that is fuzzy or furry I have to stop and touch - blankets , pillows , clothes , you name it and I just wanna nuzzle into it. But i HATE the fuzzy boots with pom poms UGH!

I wear kitty ears pretty much everywhere but work as well..

desertsun

I love to mix my food! A bite of this, a bite of that. Yum!

I have a serious, irrational fear of bugs. Spiders, big flying things, beetles... Ugh. I've been having nightmares nearly every night for the last 3 weeks b/c with the monsoons here this time of year, lots of nasties come out, and apparently Mother Nature is one sick bitch who likes to throw all her nastiest things in my direction lately.  Just one example? I give you...The Tarantula Wasp:




I had one in my apartment a couple weeks ago, flying directly at me. I just about shat myself. Luckily, my halogen lamp distracted the f*cker and lured it in to the fiery brightness, burning it to a crisp. Yay for halogen!

CT324

OMG that would make me want to Shat my pants too lol.  Thank god your lamp fried it!  It doesnt look like that one would be easy to kill using a magazine!!

That is so weird! My SO and his youngest brother share a birthday, a couple hours apart though...

Hmmm... weird about me... everything? 

I am petrified of bridges and frogs
I can touch my tongue to my nose and fit my whole fist in my mouth
I am an only child and constantly told my mom and dad when I was little that I never wanted a sibling (and still don't)
I am a licensed realtor
My favourite sport is golf (and I'm pretty good!)  
I LOVE brussel sprouts and asparagus... but I draw the line at lima beans.. yuck

Nice! I can't think of a single kind of store that would work like that for me. <img src="http://cdn.cl9.vanillaforums.com/downloaded/ver1.0/content/scripts/tinymce/plugins/emotions/images/smiley-undecided.gif" border="0" alt="Undecided" title="Undecided" />

To those that don't mix their food together: it is not just a girl thing, Mike does that too and he also eats one thing at a time starting with his least favorite first.

As for me, I have an absolutely ridiculous and irrational fear of opossums. Looking at a picture of one online will seriously make me throw up. I am terrified of them and I don't even know why.

Also, I cannot have or smell celery in my food. I don't care how good whatever it is looks I will question if there's celery in it or in the salt it was seasoned with. I can ALWAYS taste it and it makes me want throw up as well. I will pick it out of soup or any other food that it is in.

Haha. There's probably a bunch of other things but I can't think of them now.
