Quirky… (or just plain weird)

by Sunny on June 3, 2008

My quirks huh…. should get my husband to write this one!

I love to read while I eat. Food just isnt as enjoyable if I don’t have a book in my hand.

I LOVE mud puddles! I think they are so much fun to walk through. My kids are rarely steered away from them.

I have an odd sense of humor… I can tell a joke coming before it arrives and usually find myself laughing before everyone else. And I see funny stuff in places most people don’t. Causes a bit of embarrassment at times :-)

I hold M&M’s in my mouth until they are melted and then eat them… they taste better that way. Trust me.

I prefer barefoot! especially in mud puddles.

I am a bit of a rebel when it comes to fitting in. Even as a kid, if it is the fashion, fad, or popular.. I was not interested. Just cause… rarely a reason.

I love thunder and lightning storms.. the louder the better. And snowstorms… the deeper the snow the more satisfying!

I love animals and kids but mostly just my own. I have a harder time connecting with other kids and animals.

I love to play practical jokes but only after I am VERY comfortable with you.

I am a terrible tease.. the better my mood and frame of mind… the more I tease.

I love words… I love how they paint pictures, how they often sound like what they are saying, how you can be an artist with them… make whole new worlds, people that never existed can become so real. Words are powerful.

I am a BIT Dramatic.. ask my husband. He calls it Anne Shirleying.

I often stop and imagine things differently.. what f this hadn’t happened or this did happen. I can bring myself to tears or laughter from some silly daydream.

I see word pictures. When someone describes something it flashes into my mind like a photograph. It makes it awkward or frustrating when someone tells me about something and I see it mentally. If I can’t… I need more info and will ask questions that fill in the photo. Even if I don’t want to see it. My brother had a disgusting kid song he used to sing and it made me so mad cause I would get that image in my mind… ewww.

I like to ask questions. I have been told I am nosy… but it’s honestly not that. My oldest is like that too and I can see it frustrating him as well. I just have an intensely curious mind that wants to know more and understand and LEARN.

I am an odd female… I don’t talk a lot. I think… deep inside. Not many have ever really gotten deep enough to know what really goes in deep in me. Thankfully I have a husband who is a talker and manages to get me to open up once in a while. We are backwards of the normal pi cture of how a husband and wife communicate.

I guess I am a LITTLE quirky ;-)

I’ll have to come back and add to this as I think of more.

Ok… if you read all the way through this then you are tagged… Go write about your quirkiness now!

Yup, I’d say you are in the quirky club! I love getting to know you, Shirley! And now that we have video calling — LOOK OUT!
Love you, my quirky friend!
