6 Weird Things About Me

I got tagged by my good friend Kelly, who was tagged by our good friend Cathy to do a “6 weird things about me” write-up. So here we go. I’ll start it by saying, I was a very weird kid, but hopefully have outgrown atleast most of that by now.

Rin 9th grade

1) As a kid I really loved liver – I remember even ordering it in a restaurant once. I haven’t had it in about 15 years, so I’m not sure if I still like it.

2) I loved long division so much in 4th grade that I used to stay in from recess to do problems on the board just for fun.

3) I love tomatoes – as in, I’ll eat one like an apple with my lunch. (I don’t think this is weird, but everyone I tell this to thinks it is, especially my friends Pam and Cathy who hate tomatoes.)

4) I’d rather share any of my possessions than my razor, even my toothbrush and even with my sisters. Maybe it comes from too much talk of communicable and blood-born diseases in nursing school.

5) As a kid I had a napkin collection (again, something that I didn’t think was weird at the time, but everyone I tell thinks it is!!!) I considered getting rid of it a couple years ago, but decided to keep it for posterity’s sake.

6) I love to run, and in high school I’d run laps around the track at my school. To pass the time I’d divide each lap into quarters, and then calculate how much I had left to go (ie. 17/48ths.)

I tag my sisters Sarah, Meg, and Anna, and my friends the Noels and Jessica White to share their weirdness with the rest of us.

[...] A couple months ago I was tiling the bathroom floor while Meredith and Coriena were asleep and Erik had taken Lauren out for some Daddy-daughter time. As I sat their slapping down morter and tiles, I had such a feeling of joy and contentment (maybe I should have included this in “6 weird things about me!!“) [...]
