A Bit Unusual

I was reading the comment from my last post and it got me thinking about how different we all are but yet somehow the same. Like for example, I love to eat Peanut butter and Hot Sause sammies. I know it sounds gross but if you eat chunky style PB with some salsa with a little cilantro in it on some whole grain nutty bread it is GOOD!I also like to eat potato chips with hamburgers. That in and of itself is not unusual. But, I will take all my chips and separate the whole chips from the broken ones on my plate. I will eat the brokens ones first and then the whole ones. If you want some of my chips I will give you the broken ones. I also do not like to eat off of plates with a design in the middle where my food will rest. I also hate anything that gets warmed up in styrofoam cups or bowls,plates etc.When a cat crosses my path in the car I will mark an x with spit on my thumb in the upper left hand corner of the windshield. I always say God bless you when someone sneezes even if they don't hear me.I have a naked picture of my ex in my panty drawer.When I was a kid I was a cowgirl with a hat and boots and a horse! I used to barrell race and have a scar on my knee to prove it.I like odd numbers. I do not like pairs of anything. I never touch a door handle in a public bathroom. I will use my sleeve or a piece of paper to open it.I don't go to the public pool to swim because there are too many kids in the pool and I know they pee in there. I cry at Hallmark commercials even though I know that is what they are geared to do. I can quote lines from the movie the Three Amigos with Chevy Chase, Martin Short , and Steve Martin.My idea of the perfect man is a cross between Albert Switzer,John Wayne, and Steve McQueen. I abhor authority and I cannot stand dumb assess. You know who you are!If not,then that just drives the point home.I am loyal to my friends sometimes to a fault. I have learned to keep my mouth shut and only hear what pertains to me. Your private life trauma baby leave me out! I had a falling out years ago with a good friend who was being treated poorly by this man and she asked me to say something to him and when I did she got angry and sided with him!Never again. If you like someone I do too. If you don't like them I don't either and if you decide later you do like them again then, so do I. As my grandmother used to say, "suits me if it suits you".I would love to skydive but am afraid of heights. Well, I can climb up anything but the coming down is the problem. I am also afraid of cemeteries at night. I always wish upon a falling star.I love my dogs more than most of the people I know. I know Elvis' birthday and death day. My favorite Beatle is George. Both before the breakup and as a solo artist. John was ok but I only ever liked half of his albums. Paul has always been a little too full of himself. My all time favorite song is The Thrill is Gone by BB King and I want it played at my funeral. I hate liver of any kind and think cavier tastes too fishy. I also don't like salmon for the same reason. I have to be at the movie theater at least 20 minutes before the show starts to get the best seat which is the one in the middle of the theater in the middle of the aisle right under the projection window.I cannot tolerate intolerance.I love the Opera.I am not fond of rap music but I do like Nelly.I can speak Spanish, some Japanese, and know some choice dirty words in Phillipino,Korean,Vietnamese, and German.I have a lot of friends from a lot of different places. I have a group of girlfriends that meets once a month for brunch. There are 4 of us, one from Canada, one from Wales, one from Vietnam, and me.I call us the Benotton bunch from the commercials from long ago.I cannot sing or play an instrument but music is my favorite thing in the world. I cannot imagine a world without music and I always have some playing in the background. If had a theme song it would be the one from Bosom Buddies.My favorite sound in the world is of children laughing.My favorite Christmas movie is The Christmas Story I can never see it enough. Okay, enough about me how about you?

1. I don't like olives, either black or green, except nicoise olives. I LOOOVE nicoise olives.
2. I have been to a few rodeos and I think they are mostly boring. Except for the barrel racing. I think barrel racing is great.
3.I love potato chips. My favorite are the ones with salt and cracked black. I hate bbq flavor potato chips. Ugh.
3.I used to hate cilantro. I thought it tasted like soap. But now I like it.
4. I hate styrofoam. I especially hate dragging a spoon over it. It is like chalk on a blackboard to me. I don't even like coffee in styrofoam. Or cold drinks.
5.I think Steve Martin is brilliant but I don't much care for Chevy Chase.
6. I would keep a naked picture of you in my underwear drawer if you gave me one. :)
7. I have always thought Paul was a bit of a prig.

You're such an interesting person, so diverse!

But this post begs the question: if you don't like pairs of anything, what do you put on your feet? ;)
