the weird seven again

i have done this before, but miz daisybones wants to know more weird things about me. i’m not tagging anyone because i figure everybody must have done this about as many times as i have. here goes:

1. i dye my hair dark brown, but i leave the top layer grey, so you don’t see the grey roots immediately when i haven’t gone for a dye for a month. now whenever i go and get my hair dyed people come and ask me if i dyed the top layer grey. isn’t that weird? must be the contrast …

2. i can’t stand crowds. i’m a very calm, soft and patient person to the point of sheepishness, but when i get caught in saturday shopping crowds i get to the point where i want to hit people within minutes.

3. i’m foolishly, ridiculously in love with my collarbones. in fact i declared the day when i noticed they had reappeared from under that layer of fat “national clavicle day”.

4. i put a period/full stop behind my signature. i inherited (or copied) this from my mother. when i was a child and she still had to sign my class tests, i noticed she was doing this and asked her why. she said “well, it’s a statement, isn’t it?”
i thought that was pretty reasonable.

5. i go into a hormonal cleaning frenzy on the day before my period starts. okay, there are other pms-ey signs like bitching or touchiness, but that one’s a sure sign. because usually i’m the queen of unwashed dishes and dust bunnies.

6. i don’t own a microwave oven. i believe they are evil and alter my food into something unnatural. not at all reasonable and by no means proved, but i just feel uncomfortable about nuked food.

7. although i love to swim i suffer from hydrophobia on some days. just can’t stand the thought of getting wet. i dodge my morning shower and if someone doesn’t kick me i may not take one in the evening either. the next day i’m usually happy to get wet again. i wonder if my body is trying to tell me something that way?
