Linda tagged me a while ago. The Princess a while later. But I don't think I have too much weird stuff about me, so I had to scrounge around to make my list. I suppose everyone has the same predicament, though.
1. I don't wear makeup and don't really know how, nor how to fix my hair. Seriously, I can count on one hand the number of times I've worn foundation and all of those times it was applied by someone else. It's a special day when I apply mascara AND lipstick.
2. When dealing with bread, it is very important to me that the bread slices line up: if making a sandwich, the slices should be oriented just as they were in the loaf, just with something between them.
3. While I'm not very good about making the bed, I like to have the sheets and blankets on "right" when sleeping under them. If I wake up in the night and find that the top of the sheet - the side with the widest seam - is not the one closest to my head, or that there is an obscene amount of sheet hanging off of one side of the bed, I will fix it. Even if it means waking Sam up. Luckily for him, I relaxed about this once MrMan was born. Unluckily, I seem to be resuming the habit now that MrMan is a little older.
4. I've never had a broken bone (not counting ones in my feet, but I figure they don't since everyone breaks those), nor stitches until they cut MrMan out of me and sewed me back up.
5. I wanted braces for much of my childhood (to the point that I would sometimes pretend a paper clip was a retainer, and coveted the headgear of this older boy in chorus with me), and was happy to get them as a teenager. Even the second time around a year later.
6. I love vegetables. Especially the ones most people dislike. Brussels sprouts, spinach, kale, asparagus, broccoli... on most days, I'd take a plate of these over a chocolate chip cookie.
I think a lot of you have already done this meme. But if you haven't, I tag you. Leave a comment so I can share in your weirdness.

Posted by: The Princess at February 23, 2007 08:16 PM1. you don't need make-up, you've got good skin and you'd look so very un-Shokufeh with it on.
2. I'm the same way with the bread so I don't find that weird at all.
3. Hmm...waking up your spouse to change orientation of the sheets? Approaching weird.
4. Very interesting.
5. Also very interesting.
6. I love all the veggies you mentioned too, except Brussel sprouts which just seem like stink bombs to me. I might pick the veggies over the chocolate chip cookie depending on where the cookie came from.
I suppose I'll write something in my blog since I've been "tagged"...hmm...
