Me? Well I'm just plain weird.
Lori tagged me. She thinks I'm weird. I am. It would probably be harder to name 6 normal things about me. The first 6 weird things about me.....
1 - I am 36 and still have a baby tooth. I was cheated by the tooth fairy. Also my eyetooth is right beside my front tooth. The tooth that's supposed to go between never existed.
2 - I sit on my legs. I cannot sit properly in a chair. On a dining chair, office chair, bus seat, train seat, airplane seat, or in a car I sit with one leg tucked under me, and one hanging down. On an armchair, sofa, comfy chair I sit with both legs tucked up. The only time they are both down is when I am driving.
3 - I read magazines, newspapers, catalogues from the back page to the front.
4 - I will only drink pop/soda/soft drink in a glass or cup, not out of a can or a bottle. It has to have ice, but no straw. Yet I prefer to drink beer from the bottle.
5 - I am a night owl. Why else would I be writing this at 1.50am on Thursday? I think it's a consequence of working graveyard shifts (11pm to 7am or midnight to 8am) for almost 6 years. When I'm crafting or organising or planning trips etc I work best from 1-3 am! It's also a good time to call Australia (it's 8.50pm on Thursday night) or London (it's 9.50am on Thursday).
6a - I spend a small fortune and a whole heap of time dehairing my legs and pedicuring my feet to then hide them in jeans and steel toe boots for work. But my face and hair? A slathering of moisturiser with sunscreen, a swipe of lip balm with sunscreen , a quick comb and I'm good to go.
6b - I detest wearing shoes and socks. I live in bare feet at home. And live in flip flops in the summer and my Uggs in the winter. However I own 20+ pairs of shoes.
Tag, you're it - Kelli, Jennifer, Jen, Julie, Molly, I apologise if you have already been tagged.
Ciao! Thanks for stopping by my blog! Personally, I think weird is better. What is normal, anyways? Without getting too philosophical here... I think on number 2 you should get cruise control for your car. And, very curious about what work requires you to wear steel toe boots...??

Oh my god! I still have a baby tooth too! My left eye tooth. How strange is that????? And after living in India for so long it took me a long time to be able to drink ice in anything. ;)

You are not alone at all.... I also have to sit with one leg folded up under me. Drives my husband nuts, but I have been doing it as long as I remember.
