Six Weird Things About Me
// 12.15.06 // Filed under: Thriving
I’ve been tagged by Mother Crone’s Homeschool to divulge six weird things about myself and tag six more people. (And – oh! – did you see Mother Crone’s new blog? Graphic design by moi! Update your links because she’s moved to Wordpress.)
1. I talk to myself. A lot. Not so much in public, but around the house I voice a running commentary of my every move. PHAT Daddy says I’m like a comic strip with the little bubble above my head. Ha!
2. When I am angry, I scrub the sink or organize the kids’ toys. Cleaning makes me feel better. There’s nothing like scrubbing, sweeping and mopping to help me blow off some steam.
3. I am a Barry Manilow fan. Most people find this odd for someone my age. But my Mom is a fan and I spent my little girl years dancing and singing around the living room to Barry’s albums. (An album? Oh, it’s like a CD, but bigger and played on a turntable with a tiny needle that reads the grooves.)
4. I used to eat banana and mayonnaise sandwiches regularly. And sliced bananas covered in mayo and rice krispies. I probably still would but no one in my family likes bananas, so they’re not around much.
5. I have an exaggerated fear of hitting a deer with my car. My Dad hit a deer once on the highway in a convertible. The deer got kinda “sliced” in half over the windshield. Ewww. I wasn’t even there, but that vision has pretty much scarred me for life. I hate driving at night and I’m constantly gripping the steering wheel and braking when I see reflector lights on the side of the road. It’s a deer! No, it’s a mailbox. No, it’s a deer! Wait, it’s a street sign. Arrrggghhh!!!
6. Outside of a professional massage, I don’t like to be “rubbed.” Backrubs, leg rubs, foot rubs – ick. Just keep your hands to yourself.

Number 4 is possibly the oddest combination for a sandwich I’ve ever heard! Though I do like sardine and tomato paste, cream cheese and Heinz sandwich spread all together…
#2 is me! Everyone knows I’m upset when I’m cleaning furiously.
The bananas and mayo sandwiches are weird! I would have never thoughht to combine the two.
Bananas & mayo, huh? I’m a cream cheese & olive girl myself. Love it on pumpernickel bread MMMmmm…I like Barry Manilow too…I’m also a fan of Neil Diamond and John Denver, which is pretty unusual for a head banger like me. I love Barry’s “Mandy.” I talk to myself to. When noone’s home, it becomes a very loud rant. It’s not constant, just an occasional outburst. I think it’s from working at home alone all the time.
Totally with you on 1, 3, and 6. Manilow rocks. Ain’t no sense hiding it.
#2 is foreign. I only clean when my apartment is about to kill me. Like today.
I always joke that I MUST fight with my husband regularly or I would NEVER EVER EVER scrub the bathtubs! It feels so good to take out anger on the bathtub.
And I talk to myself too… usually I’m writing stories, blog posts, conversations, etc. in my head. Maybe since we both do it, it means I’m not as crazy as I thought?
Next time you’re in a pique you’re more than welcome to come to CO and organize my kids’ toys!
Barry Manilow has an exalted place in our house – my wife trekked to Rockefeller Center to see him appear on the Today show. She’s got some nice blurry pictures from his performance outside.
I am also an angry cleaner. If I am really pissed I do bathtubs. It gets out agression, and I’d be mad cleaning the bathtub anyway, so two birds with one stone, right?
