Gina has tagged me

"Here are the rules: Each player of this game starts with the 'six weird things about me' blog post. People who get tagged need to write their own six weird things post and state the rules clearly. At the end of the post, tag six more people and don’t forget to leave a comment on their blog to tell them they have been tagged and tell them to read your blog."

1. i rarely finish all the food off my plate. there is ALWAYS a bit left, sometimes just a bite or two. i guess my mother never implemented the "you have to eat everything off your plate" rule. that's impolite weird.

2. i am slightly afraid in movie theatres when all the lights go out. i always think someone is gonna hijack the place and kill us all in the dark. seriously. the thought passes quickly but i almost always think it! that's morbid weird.

3. i constantly buy scrapbooking stuff. i never scrapbook except for ONE page i did in September. i literally have hundreds of dollars worth of paper, stickers, books, a mega piece of freaking LUGGAGE to haul my stuff around, etc., etc. but i can't stop buying the stuff for it. just today i bought 4 packages of "spring" stickers. looooooooser weird.

4. since grade 5, i have washed my face EVERY morning and EVERY night with the exception of maybe 5 times (due to camping and all-nighters). i am compulsively disordor-ly obssessedly weird with washing my face.

5. whenever i am introducing someone i always momentarily blank on the name of who i'm introducting and then i freak that i got the name wrong. i do this all the time, unless i know you really well. i don't think i've ever gotten a name wrong, so i don't really know where this fear comes from.

6. i have one white eyelash. freaky weird.

i tag... YOU (if you haven't already done it. i seem to be the last!)

how bad is this?

i just opened up the chocolates that i had bought for jeff for valentine's day... heheheheh.... evil laugh.

i was CRAVING some chocolate. and they're Reese chocolate hearts. my absolute favorite. pass that up, as it practically melts in my drawer? i don't think so.

i have a week to buy him another bag of chocolates. hahahahaah. another excuse to go to the new walmart again! it's awesome there. so big and full of fun treats and excuses to buy stuff. i LLLLLLLOOOOOOOOOVVVVVVVVVVVEEEEE walmart but don't tell anybody in my classes that because i am supposed to hate it. large corporations = bad bad bad. just like me eating jeff's valentines day chocolate = bad bad bad.

i am bad.

ON THE OTHER HAND....
the day lynnel and i came back from walmart, i told jeff that i had bought him his valentine's day stash. mistake. he promptly snuck down to my room and came up with a mouthful of chocolate (not the reeses). i asked him if he read the card i'd bought him and he replied, "well no, i wasn't looking for that." hello i think maybe if he'd at least betrayed me by reading the sweet, sentimental card i bought him, i might feel a bit better. maybe i'd think he cared about love and romance and i'd feel better about the freaking five dollars i spent on a damn card!

therefore, i'm thinking he deserves the fact that i opened up his (my) Reeses.

i can always put the leftovers (yeah right) into a cute little bag or something... mix in some sweetarts... he'll never know...

mmm, i like sweetarts too.
