Six Weird Things about Me
I’m a gun loving pacifist.
Really, I’m not a pacifist. But I truly hate the idea of war. I also realize that sometimes it just can’t be avoided. That being said I have discovered that I like shooting. Thus far I suck at the real thing (Too much flinch) But I like it. Oh yes I do!
@@#&Q%*&!
I swear like a truck diver, But I really hate the word “cunt”. Particularly if a man says it. I find it supremely offensive that a part of the female anatomy is being used as an offensive swear-word. It’s like the part of a female that makes her most…female is inherently evil, dirty, or (insert insult of your choice here). And have you ever noticed, no one ever spits out the word “Cock” as an insult.
A Bear? In the woods? In Canada?
I love back-woods camping, but I have a serious fear of bears.
Go figure.
Death is interesting
Death fascinates me. All my life it has. Even when I was a little kid. My father nicknamed me “Monster” for my morbid fascinations. Every aspect of death, from life after death to decomposition, funeral practises, crime scene investigation, autopsies, embalming. You name it. I want to read about it. When I was a kid I loved Quincy. Its no wonder I love CSI New York, Vegas, and Miami. My two favourite recent reads: “Stiff – The curios lives of human cadavers” and “The Mummy Congress – Science obsession and the everlasting dead”
Liam Neeson = Yummeh
I have a serious Liam Neeson fetish. When I heard that Liam was going to be on stage doing “The Crucible” in New York I dragged my (thankfully understanding) Husband to see him. I have somehow managed to meet the guy twice.
I have no idea why I am so turned on by a mediocre actor who (rather accurately) describes himself as “Pleasantly Ugly”.
Weird Talent
I have discovered that I can fall asleep standing up.
Yup.
Happened last week at work. Third shift in a row with less than 5 hours sleep, I’m standing in the middle of Caffine-central serving customers and my eyes drifted closed, one knee buckled and I snapped awake. – I was fine for the rest of the day- apparently my “Micro-nap” did the trick.

Just the other day I am goofing off at work and decide to come here and do some reading. In a few minutes my co-workers start drifting into my cubicle trying to figure out what's going on. I am just LOLing my ass off and they want to know why.
The thing is, I find your writing totally hilarious and I am thinking that THIS is what you should be doing! I particularly find it humorous that you have come to grow, that you are now mastering the BLOG and that your days of stressing about the BLOB are gone.
Times change...we, baby booming old farts, have discovered that the BLOG is a new vehicle of insight into our Gen X offspring's psyche, that we can come to "The Blog" and learn Six weird things about our kids, which we always wanted to know, but were afraid to ask.
Wow! Long live the blog! I think I may even get one for myself. Juts to keep up with the times you know...
Oops! Gota go now, time to practice affirmations and play my motivational visualisations courtesy of "The Secret"
Namaste
