If I Had a Pet Rabbit I'd Name Him Stew

Thanks Rabbitch for singling me out as possibly someone who might be able to list 6 weird things about herself.  Thanks.  Nice.

“THE RULES:Each player of this game starts with the ‘6 weird things about you.’ People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 6 weird things as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave a comment that says ‘you are tagged’ in their comments and tell them to read your blog.”

1. I didn't learn to drive until I was 38.  (so take that Rabbitch)

2. I have ESP.  Well kind of.   I don't see dead people or anything, but just in the past month, i've had fleeting, yet nagging thoughts of 2 people out of the blue who i haven't seen, talked to, or even thought of in years, only to 1. get an email from one of them announcing the birth of her son (on they day i was thinking of her) and 2. learn from a coworker that the other is the study chair of one of her studies.  sure, both these situations could be coincidences, but i encounter an awful lot of these types of coincidences.

3. I have one cankle due to a serious infection in my left foot that had me hospitalized for about a week 10 years ago.  it's the bane of my shoe loving existence. 

4. I'm much more comfortable in large groups than i am one on one.  I feel less pressure. 

5. I speak french and when i do and i hear a recording of my voice while speaking french, i don't mind it. even with  my american accent.  when i hear a recording of my voice while speaking english though, it makes me cringe. it's the same voice though.  so go figure.  but it's as if my voice were "designed" for speaking french.

6.  I always save the best for last and I love to be surprised.  So when i'm on the look out for something at the store that i really want, i look every where else but where that item will be.  so, for example, if i'm looking for a particular knitting book, i'll visit the gift area, the magazine area, the humor section, etc of the bookstore before going to the craft section.  i don't go looking for presents in the house either nor do i beg to open a present before my birthday or before christmas.  it used to drive my mother crazy when i was a kid "what? you don't want to know what i got you?" and if i accidently find out what something is ahead of time?  totally bums me out.  because you know, once it's open, the excitement is over.

ok, now i'm supposed to tag people.  but i'm not going to.  sorry.  i'm not tagging.  tag free zone here.
