Hmmm...only 7?! Let me see... I may have posted some of these before, so excuse the repetition!
1. I am double-jointed in my elbows. This means that you can twist my arm all the way around and it doesn't hurt. It also totally messes up my bowling game as my arm will twist right before I release the ball.
2. I love to eat canned mackerel! It is YUMMY! Drain the juice, plop it in a pan, add some soy sauce, crushed red pepper flakes, and hot bean paste (found in your asian market)...bring to boil and then simmer for a bit. Eat it wrapped up in lettuce leaves with rice. Mmmm...
3. I am a bit OCD with things needing to be perfectly parallel, perpendicular or in a row. If you're like me, you know exactly what I'm talking about! I can't help fiddling at a counter, desk, kitchen, etc.-- even when it's someone else's! Line em up, straighten it out, even-steven's.
4. When I was little, I used to love riding my bike around the block without holding on to the handlebars...and twirling a sparkling baton... (Yes, it sounds completely dorky and embarassing, but it was FUN!).
5. I love boxes. Trinkety boxes, hat boxes, gift boxes, fabric covered boxes, wooden boxes... I wouldn't want to keep anything IN them-- since you can't see what's inside (gotta have clear plastic bins for that), but I just love the look of them and just having them around. BUT since I hate clutter, I don't actually BUY these boxes, but I will spend waaay too long at a store just staring at them!
6. I grew up thinking Miracle Whip was mayonnaise. (I have my dad to thank for that! Grrrr...) ;-) So imagine my pleasant surprise the first time I had REAL mayo. I remember asking What is this? Our mayo never tasted like this! This was in HIGH SCHOOL, mind you! All those years eating icky Miracle Whip and missing out on Hellmann's... *sigh* It's time I can never get back...
7. Even with my previously horrid experience with the tangy zip of Miracle Whip, I do keep a small container on hand for the sole purpose of eating on a fried bologna sandwich. This also means that I must (on rare occasion) buy a loaf of WHITE bread instead of wheat. Actually, that sounds really good right now. I think I'll send hubby out for a loaf of white bread so I can have one for lunch!
Anyone else want to join in on this tag? If you do, let me know so I can read how wierd you are! After all, normal is BORING. And I don't want any "normal" friends!!! :-)

I LOVE MIRACLE WHIP!! I don't buy it because I will eat the whole thing. So we get yucky Hellman's. :(
I love miracle whip-- but will tolerate "real" mayo if I hafta. I didn't know what real mayo was until I was in high school either. Here's my weird thing. (yes, there are others, but this is one I'm willing to share). My favorite sandwich-- miracle whip on bread. That's it. Or sometimes with a slice of tomato. Also loved riding my bike with no hands and twirling a baton, but not at the same time:)
Blessings,
Christine
fried bologna?? ohhhhhhhhhh, so thats how you keep your size 1 figure. i'll have to try that.
LOL, I too am symetrically OCD. I knew exactly what you mean.
I did this not too long ago, but at the time it was a list of 9. Check it out... http://www.homeschoolblogger.com/youngmommy/240809/Tagged%21.html
Heaven help me, I'm commenting in the archives.
I also thought Miracle Whip and mayo were synonymous. Pretty shocked that people were so opinionated one way or the other!
