Seven Weird Things About Me

Lisa tagged me, so let's see what I can come up with.


1. I really like the taste of sardines. Even better is kippers.

2. Most of my favorite movies are animated or are Jim Hensen productions

3. I "spin" when I sleep. I actually do a super-powered push-up, lifting my entire body off the bed, and flip over. I don't even wake up when I do this. Mr. Barefoot has gotten several bruises by being too close when I do this.

4. I talk to myself---alot. If you think I am chatty here, you should hear me when I am alone.

5. I am mildly allergic to chocolate. I get a stuffy head and a really bad headache whenever I eat it.

6. I don't like cake, and I HATE frosting. Too much sugar, I guess.

7. I count my steps. I don't even notice I am doing it anymore.

Um, I am supposed to tag folks, but it seems a lot of you have done this one already. So, if you haven't done this one yet and you are reading this consider yourself tagged. Leave a comment to let me know where you are at so we can all come and read about your weirdness!

Shoot! If I knew you were allergic to chocolate, I wouldn't have prescribed it to you as much as I have! Let's see, I would have suggested... mmm... cheesecake!! Oh, and I would have eaten the chocolate myself! Well, at least one of us should feel better.

No worries, Dr. Lisa. I still love chocolate, even if it doesn't love me. :)

Oh, and I LOVE cheesecake! I don't need no stinking toppings, either. Just give me that rich, creamy goodness all by itself! ;)

Lisa said...

Me too cheesecake! Want to share a plain, thick, icy cold one???

Wendy said...

How are you with ice cream? My husband tells me that it's never too cold for ice cream ... and you can never have too much garlic ;).

I'm in! You get one, I'll get one, and we'll both eat half. Of course, since we can't eat it together, I can have your half too, right?

Wendy
I love ice cream and garlic, just not together!

Eww Sardines!! I knew a co-worker once, he ate the same thing for lunch every day: a can of sardines, banana, some kind of beans, and an apple. He was in his 50s but looked more like he was 30. Good lookin' guy and in such good shape, too! So if you like 'em, good for you!

Love cake, I can live without the frosting! Hate those store bought cakes with the inch-thick frostings-- ugh!! (scrape!) Who needs all that sugar in the frosting?!?

Can I join in the cheesecake club?? yum!! I make a yummy white chocolate raspberry cheesecake, I'll share it with you, otherwise I eat the whole thing!

Poor Mr. Barefoot hates even the smell of sardines, so I don't get to have them very often. Even if I have them at lunchtime he can still smell it when he comes home after 6!

Of course you can join the cheesecake club. We will all get fat together (though, of course you can use your built in baby excuse!).

I am so sorry to hear that you are alergic to chocolate. You have my deepest sympathies.
