I wonder if anyone ever reads this....
Five awkward things about myself.
1. When I was little I used to eat worms for money. Okay...I was like twelve, so I guess not that little.
2. I also used to eat the wrappers from my muffins, and occasionally still have the craving. Should I go on one of those "I eat weird things please save me" shows?
3. I'd rather play in a swamp than a swimming pool. Not because I dislike swimming pools...but because I like playing in mud. Playing in the swamp with my best friend was how I spent my summers through fifth grade. I do, however, LOVE the smell of swimming pools. And bleach.
4. I have a really messed up back. I'm not sure if it has any correlation...but I started noticing it when I fell off of the school bus when I was in elementary school.
5. When I was eight, I used to play sword fight with my little brother when our babysitter was watching us. She told us to say a swear word that rhymes with "lastard" anytime one of us was hit, so I didn't know it was a bad word. Days later, I was having a water balloon fight with my family, including aunts and uncles, and my dad hit me with a balloon. I called him the word that rhymes with "lastard" in front of everyone, and didn't understand the gasps. I'm still mortified about that.
Here's the things about the quirks people have. You can get to know all the "normal" things about them. When you keep digging and finally reach the quirkiness, you know you've found the good stuff. Let's hope my future husband and family feels the same way....
