Fourth.. I've never settled for second... :)

Never, with Alty. :):D:):rolleyes:

Hey! True, but... HEY! ;)

What can I say, I'm an "energetic" woman! :D

Well, at least you are honest my dear. :D

I am pretty weird.

I used to go around bus stops and look for change- one time I ended up with $20 after a day of scouting. I haven't done this since I had my daughter [she's two now] but I always keep my eye out for that shiny quarter laying around somewhere- maybe this summer I'll take her out for some nice "walks" :p

I once saw this guy at a laundry mat carrying this magnetic object which he put under the machines which collected coins- I was impressed.

I also like to make scenarios up [for fun], for example:

Me [to my husband]: "What if you were walking down the street and this old lady with an elephant came up to you and offered you a ride, and the elephant would take you anywhere and anytime but in exchange you'd have to give up your left eyebrow"

Husband: "Umm..." [walks away slowly]

I know I do more weird things but I can't put my finger on them since it seems normal to me... I'll have to ask my husband- he's normal, whatever normal means.

MUD,
That was the funniest story! It takes a pretty weird person to even come off the cuff like that!
Thanks for making me laugh! :P

Speaking of Tio, there was a Korean woman I used to work with. She always showed up for work in spotless clothes and polished white shoes... We worked in a kitchen. She also always won really big at the horse races and spoke perfect, accentless English even though she was raised in Korea.

Anyway, nothing pointless ever came out of her mouth and there are two things she said that stick with me: "It's never enough" (money) and, "just keep going" (when you feel overwhelmed by the work in front of you) Thanks, Soon Young.

Glad I could put a smile on your face even if that was just a sample ;)

.."just keep going" (when you feel overwhelmed by the work in front of you)

That is something I will have to start chanting to myself at work.

Greetings weird people!
I am enjoying this thread so much.
Also wondering if I am in the least bit weird! Especially since I am spying on this weird thread without comment.. :D

Hello firm:

Uhhh, you can stop wondering.

Thanks Ex!

One thing I have noticed is that I tend to correct grammatical errors when others are talking,sometimes out loud,but mostly in my head.
Often happens when the conversation is in our native language.

Hello again, firm:

Yeah, you and Wondergirl! She dreams about apostrophe's (like the one that should or shouldn't be here - I never know). But, I knew you'd come around and admit your weirdness.

Hello spit:

That's funny. I'd like to see that.

Washing the pan isn't what I think is weird. It's paying tribute to the long dead Tio, whom I knew nothing about beyond his dishwashing prowess.

What's even weirder is that I remember his name. I can't remember the peoples names I met yesterday.

I got to think about my weird thing a little and I'll get back to you. I'm 51 yrs. Old so I know I've got them.

What struck me most about your post is this. All through our lives certain people or certain events, strike us hard. It can be a very insignificant saying or gesture that means nothing really, but to us, for whatever reason, it sticks. Just this morning, a friend reminded me of something I told her more than 25 yrs ago, that she always says to herself. I don't even remember saying it, but she refers to it all the time. We never know when we are going to effect or even change some one's life. A little lesson? Make sure it is for the better.:)

I just use whatever hand is more convienient.

I can write script left-handed, right-handed, left-handed mirror image and right-handed mirror image.

The right hand penmanship is the norm.

I could probably use chopsticks in my left hand. Just haven't tried it.

WOW That's impressive!

[cozyk]

Wow, you know my state very well! If you ate some biscuits while you were here, hope you didn't get the crumbs on your lips, hehe.

I lived in Charlotte for 6 years. Nothing like a good Bojangles biscuit. With gravy!:D

Thanks Ex!

I do that ALL THE TIME. I can't stand it when someone conjugates a verb incorrectly.

OH GOSH yesssss! My mouth is watering now!

For the longest, I didn't know that Bojangle's was a southern thing... :o

Now I want a biscuit!

Something else make my mouth water...

I can't stand wearing anything to bed that isn't slippery. Don't laugh, I know what you are thinking. It isn't that. My PJs have to be the kind of silky material that don't bind you up in bed to the point where you can't roll over or move around properly. If I don't have them, I don't sleep. I guess this isn't weird enough though.

OK, here's another one. If I get held up coming home by a train at a crossing it is usually the GO train (the express passenger along the lake between Ottawa and Oshawa). When I do I always say out loud "the 3:10 to Yuma". It got to be a habit... I give up.

Tick (silently creeping off... )

Love that one! (made me chuckle)
