7 things I betcha didn't know about me...
1. I have a phone phobia. I don't like answering the phone or making phone calls. I think it stems from young where my mother used to force me to get on the phone to speak to relatives. She resorted to the point of lying to me and telling me a friend is on the phone and I'd pick up the phone and it would be an auntie or an uncle! I'll do anything to get around not returning a phone call, I'll ask Big C to do it, or I'll email someone, or instant message, I'll even write a letter, and I haven't tried smoke signals yet, ANYTHING but pick up the phone.
2. My mother used to pack me prawn (aka small shrimp) sandwhiches for my school lunch and all I wanted was a simple ham and cheese! I had no idea I was living the good life, I'd do anything for her to pack that for me now for work! LOL
3. I thought I had OCD but I found out last night while reading a magazine at the chiropractor that people with OCD usually have to redo things over and over as they feel it wasn't done properly the first time. I realized I don't have TIME for OCD, if it's not done right the first time I'm sure as heck not doing it over and and over again! They gave an example of people taking EVERYTHING out of their closet and folding all their clothes over and over again, like FIVE TIMES until they feel they are folded correctly. I only refold maximum TWICE!
4. I cannot wear mis matching underwear and it preferably has to match the outfit of the day.
5. When my fingers are stretched out in the position that you'd give a Hi Five, my finger from the joint onwards doesn't bend straight, it kind of curves like it's hyper extending. Some people say I am double jointed but I don't think this is the case. I can also bend the very tip of my finger, you know the last digit, while keeping the middle joint straight. (I would take a picture but it might freak some people out!)
6. I don't like diamonds! I asked dh for a plain metal band with nothing on it! He still got a diamond but made sure it was small. I like plain, plain things plus it gets on my nerves when the diamond catches on things...like skirts, stockings, and curtains! How annoying! LOL
7. I see places in my dreams before I've ever visited them. This has happened at least twice. Plus I seem to visit a new place and then years later end up working at that place this has happened 3 times now.
Well aren't you INTERESTING?!?!? Thank you for doing this. Your answers are great. However, I'm a little concerned. You DON'T like diamonds??? I feel faint!!! LOL By the way, I'm gonna call you in a few minutes...think you'll feel like talking? Hee Hee

ReplyDeleteBaby C..is such a doll baby!
You are one facinating lady! Thanks for sharing all of that! Funny how many people don't like to talk on the phone. I don't really either! I mean if someone calls me...ok. But if I have to call someone...No. I'm too shy!
ReplyDeleteI used to be terrified to use the phone too (I would cry and my Mom would make me). Then I got a job as a receptionist and the rest is history! Thanks for sharing your 7 things! Have a fabulous day! Kim
ReplyDeleteI love your list...you are a wonder! I really don't like being on the phone either. I can talk a few minutes but after that I get antsy.
ReplyDeleteI don't hate diamonds but really would rather have something simple. I like gemstones...not that I have much jewelry anyhoo...I was never one to ask for jewels...: )
Ooh...those shrimp sandwiches sound too good...oh my!
Hugs,
Sue
I love that Jen Deja View!!! FunnY!
ReplyDeleteThis were so juicy. The "I don't have time for OCD" made me crack up. Although the matching panties with the outfit makes me wonder! LOL!
ReplyDeleteFunny, sometimes I think I have OCD and other days I'm with you. NO Time.
ReplyDeleteI am just now getting comfortable on the phone. I used to hate to call for take out. But, when I was single, I had to do it and got over my fear fast. But, I wrote everything down first that I wanted. Almost like a script.
:) Melissa

ReplyDeleteI have enjoyed all these 7 Things that everyone has listed, thanks, yours was fun.
ReplyDeleteAnd that baby is adorable. Maybe she'll adapt to the sand and grass eventually and realize how fun it can be.
