Nov. 20, 2006 - 9 Weird Things About Me

Okay, I've been tagged, but this should be an easy one...

 

1.  All cupboards and drawers in my house must be shut at all times.  I've been known to go from one end of the house to the other doing nothing but shutting drawers and cupboards.

 

2.  I dislike massages.  It's not that they don't feel good.  I just get very impatient.  I want to get up and Do Stuff! 

 

3.  I dress my kids according to the calendar, not what the reality of our weather is.  In September my poor kids were sweltering in their new fall togs because, by golly, "It's Fall!"  Of course it was about 105 degrees outside...

 

4.  I met dh over the internet.  We've been married 11.5 years, so I guess that makes us pioneers of a sort!

 

5.  My motto:  If it's worth doing, it's worth OVERdoing.  My kids' birthday parties are a prime example. 

 

6.  Up until this past April, we owned five dogs.  All Basenjis.  All were/are house dogs.  When our oldest female had pups, there would be times when there were up to 12 dogs in bed with us!    Our mama-dog, Chase, passed away earlier this year.    I'd own 100 dogs if I could!

 

7.  I cry at the drop of a hat.  I stay away from Hallmark stores and try to only buy humorous cards for this reason.

 

8.  I hate fried chicken, too!  Dh loves it. 

 

9.  I love Star Trek!  All the series.  All the various captains.  Dh and I have ongoing debates about which series was best, which captain was best/worst, etc.  Our kids are Trekkies, too.  LOL

Oh I have the door and cupboard thing. One time we got a new desk for our room that has doors. I got into bed and noticed that the doors were open. I jumped up and shut them and my husband cracked up laughing and told me to look under my pillow. There was a note he had written earlier that said, "Predicion: The doors on the desk will have to be shut before Christina will go to sleep."

I too, have the cabinet door thing. When my husband wants to irritate me he will go in the kitchen and start leaving cabinet doors open. Very frustrating.

We are also trekkies around here too. My personal favorite is The Next Generation. Probably because I was a teenager when it came out. I am sure I have seen every episode at least 4 or 5 times (probalby lots more).
