It Just Gets Weirder...

Snow out my window

...the weather and me, that is! Contrary to popular belief, I am still around. Nope, I didn't get frozen in the deep freeze, get buried in the snow, drowned in the drenching rains, or get blown away by the hurricane winds - all of which we have had here in the Pacific Northwest in the last month. Crazy weather I tell ya - just crazy!

Anywhoo...Miss Heather tagged me awhile ago with this Six Weird Things About Me meme, so here are a few (well six anyway) weird things:

1) I absolutely LOVE a cold glass of buttermilk. I've loved it since I was a kid, and when I lived in California and could get Knudsen's real churned buttermilk, I thought I was in heaven!

2) When I leave the house, I have to check three things and make sure they are off or unplugged: The iron, the thermostat, and the stove. If I can't remember if I checked them, I have to open the door, turn off the alarm, and check them again.

3) I could give Heather a run for the money when it comes to "Friends." Every night, we get two reruns here, and I watch them every night. I can tell you what the next line will be on most of the shows.

4) I love to eat slices of lemons and limes. Yummmm!

5) Tailgaters make me absolutely nuts. Worse still is when I look in my rearview mirror and see some young thing yakking on her cell phone and following me wayyy too close!

6) If a movie gets too much hype in the press, I absolutely refuse to go see it, I'm so sick of hearing about it. Hence, I have never seen ET, Titanic, or Lord of the Anything. Probably never will, either.

7) Like Tink, I can read and write backwards. In my senior year in high school, I signed everyone's annuals backwards. When they said, "Thanks!" and then closed their annuals, I always said, "Aren't you going to read it?" Then I watched their faces as they tried to decipher my writing!

Did I say six? How about seven!

I don't know if there's anyone left to tag now...so if you haven't yet told us six weird things about yourself, I tag you.

The Friends thing ... umm ... well considering I've never watched a single eppisode of Friends I'd call that weird.

I agree on #6. In fact ANYTHING that I feel is being pushed on me I get tired of early and refuse to have anything to do with.

Glad you're back. Was beginning to wonder.
