On Our Way To Crazy

Alisa tagged me, which is awesome because the combination of Nyquil and cold weather has given me brain freeze. It has also permanently lodged Ludacris’ Shake Your Moneymaker song in my head. Ay ay ay!

SIX WEIRD THINGS ABOUT ME

1. I only like green smells. This loosely translates into bath and body products that are green, but also applies to the smells in their original forms. Lime, cucumber, apple, grass, green tea, juniper. They smell fresh and clean. I don’t like things that smell like berries or flowers or spices. Just green stuff.

2. I played percussion in the band in junior high. I really liked it and was pretty good, but I succumbed to peer pressure and quit in high school to focus on sports. Good plan, as I use my track-running skills on a daily basis.

3. I am painfully picky about the Sunday paper. No one is allowed to touch it before me. I take it out of its plastic sleeve and separate it into three piles: good stuff, discard and sale papers (only the good ones). I then organize the good stuff pile in order from least to most interested. That way I only read the parts I want to read, and I save my favorite sections for last. Once something is in the discard pile it’s fair game, but I cannot be held responsible for what happens if you touch the good stuff pile.

4. I can’t wear hats. My head is deceptively large and most hats are way too small.

5. When listening to music, I absentmindedly sign the first letter of each syllable in the lyrics. I picked it up when my sister took sign languages classes in high school. It’s a challenge when the song is really fast, but I’ve gotten pretty good at it.

6. I love to dance but rarely dance in public. I would much rather watch and make fun of other people. This is why I don’t dance in public – I know what I would say about me if I saw myself.

It was really hard to narrow that list down to six things. I am tagging Bethany, Jennie, Jonathan, Chelsea, Scott and Jon.
