6 Even Weirder Things About Me
Jen over at Jen’s Book Thoughts tagged me for the six quirky things about me meme. I know, I know, I’ve done this meme before. But I don’t care! I love getting tagged!
Ze rules are:
1. Link to the person who tagged you
2. Post the rules on your blog
3. Write 6 random things/unspectacular quirks about yourself
4. Tag 6 people at the end of your post and link to them
5. Let each person you have tagged know by leaving a comment on their blog
6. Let the tagger know when your entry is posted.
Okay, so six quirky things…
1. I like to eat marshmallow creme right out of the jar.
2. I use an epilady-type thing on my legs, and when I haven’t shaved, I like to tweeze the hair on my legs.
3. I’m not really into purses. I’ve had the same purse for 10 years.
4. I get jealous of other people’s handwriting. I have pretty good handwriting, but I’m often coveting someone else’s writing.
5. I’ve chosen glasses over contacts. I have light skin, light hair, and light eyes. My face is feature-less without my glasses. And yes, I could use makeup to enhance my eyes, but that takes time. Time that I’d rather be sleeping.
6. I love all things vintage.
What’s quirky about you?
I’ll tag Tammy at Tammy’s Book Nook, iubookgirl at Reader for Life, avisannschild at she reads and reads, Ti at Book Chatter and Other Stuff, Kim at I Smell Books, and Shannon at Confuzzled Books. If any of you have already done this, I sorry. I can’t keep track of ev-wything.
And if you want to play along, ’cause you’re a weirdo, then please do!

I completely understand and identify!
Doesn’t everyone eat the marshmallow cream out of the jar?

You tweeze the hairs on your legs? I just knew there must be something weird about you – I am not usually friends with normal people – and here it is. This list is great.

I never got into makeup because I too never had the patience and preferred sleeping longer in the morning.

Hahaha, I too tweeze the hair on my legs when I’m bored or need to shave my legs but don’t feel like shaving. Luckily, I don’t get bored all that often.

I get jealous of handwriting too! In high school I really liked someone’s handwriting so I tried to mimic it! Mine isn’t too bad either, it just gets boring after awhile right!
I picked glasses over contacts too! And I would rather be doing just about anything but putting on makeup!

Most of those things are not that weird. Well, maybe the tweezing of your leg hair. That is odd. But we all have oddities…thank goodness for that…

Epilady hurts! You’re very brave.
I wear glasses, but I have to do big eye makeup or my students ask me if I’m sick.

Thanks for tagging me, Trish! (I actually intended to do it last time you blogged about it, so I’m thrilled with the personal invite!)

By the way, I can’t imagine tweezing my legs. Ouch!

I am a glasses over contacts girl myself. Mostly because I get weirded out by any one touching my eye – including me. I also don’t like people looking into my eyes to examine me (I’m very cool with eye contact in general). I feel like they are stealing my soul or something. I would rather see the OB-GYN than the ophthalmologist any day of the week. Call me crazy.

I’ve been tagged and done this particular meme about 10 times. And I have a 100 things about me page. How the (beep) do I have THAT many weird things about me?

Hi Trish,
My post about this is here. By the way, I’m also a glasses-over-contacts girl and the last time I wore makeup was probably in high school. (OK, that’s not true, but almost.)
I love the idea of having a list of 100 weird things about me!

This is a fun one! I will work on mine and let you know.

I’m impressed your purse has stayed for ten years. I switch purses not out of fashion but because the buggers fall apart on me.
