A Monday Meme

Kimberly Ann over at Nostalgic Homemaking, has tagged me for a meme.  I have to list 7 random or weird things about myself.  Only 7 huh?  I did something similar here, but Lord knows there are so many more weird things about me.....we have just scratched the surface....so here goes.

1.  I snore.  Loudly.  Nuff said on that one.  So lady like, I know.

2.  I swam with dolphins on vacation in Key West, Florida.  It was about 6 years ago.  It was a life changing experience as I absolutely love these gentle creatures.

3.  My Mom used to give me home perms when I was younger.  I have pin straight hair, and of course always wanted wavy hair, so my Mom, who thought she was helping, gave me *Toni* perms.  Let's just say..they never turned out like I wanted.  In fact, I had little orphan Annie's hair-do.  I ended up wanting my straight hair back.

4.  I have a hat head.  And I look good in hats (so I have been told).  So, I wear hats.  Not huge glamorous ones that you would wear to the Kentucky Derby or dinner with the Queen, but different kinds of winter hats, cloches, floppy beach hats, berets and baseball caps. 

5.  I saw a UFO.  Yeah, me and Dennis Kucinich.  When I was a girl, coming home one night with my Mom driving, her friend in the front, and me in the back...something weird in the sky, with lights on it, followed us home in the dark, through the back country roads.  We never did find out what is was. (cue twilight zone music)

6.  I have this strange thing that I do, with commercials or animated movies.  I try to guess the voices of the characters.  I am pretty good at it.  I always wish there was a TV game show for this.  I think I would clean up and be able to buy that villa in Italy. 

7.  I have 2 ever so slightly deformed nails on the ring and middle fingers of my left hand.  When I was in the 2nd grade, I accidentally got my fingers slammed in the metal door jam, of a huge wooden door and my fingers were crushed.  We thought I might lose the tips of my fingers, or the feeling in them, but luckily all that happened was that I have weird looking nails on the 2 fingers and some visible marks where the stitches were. 

Typically, I am supposed to tag 7 other bloggers, but I don't want to pressure anyone...so if you are reading this...and you have a blog...well then..consider yourself tagged!  Participate if you want, but please comment here and let me know you are playing.  I would love to get to know you better.

Fun facts! A UFO....exciting!

I miss visiting for a few days and come back to find your blog is completely different! Fascinating facts about you. And I am a hat lover too!

I've already done this meme, but I can so commiserate with you on the perm thing. I did an entire post about this.

And regarding your flea market, I gave you a little linky love on my blog in hopes of rounding up some buyers. Unfortunately, my funds are limited at the moment or else I would be buying!

Steph~ Yeah a UFO..can you beleive it? It was pretty scary!


Tara~ I hope you like it! Thanks...I always think I am rather boring :) And hats are the best!!!

Lulu~ WOW!! You are tooo sweet :) Thanks for the link love...and we can both drown our sorrows in the bad perm experience....

I love that meme and just did one myself. We learn so much aobut each other through these random facts. UFO! Deformed nails! TV voices! You are amazing. I am very jealous that you got to swim with dolphins...that would be life-changing. Great random facts bella.

Always fun getting to know you better :)

Like reading your list Robin! You look good in a hat I bet!!!
You are SO lucky to have swam with the dolphins! I can see how it would change your life! At least you wern't alone when you saw the ufo!!

So you've swum with dolphins? What darling creatures they are! That makes me wonder, though, if you had the same kind of experience Jessica Alba had while shooting "Flipper". According to her, some of them were very aroused by her presence in the water. I suppose dolphins can be horny as well as cute.

Jeni~ Well, thanks, though I can't decribe myself as amazing. Rather boring actually :)


Maryann~ Well, you should play so I get to know more about you too!!!


Constance~ Yeah, that UFO think was really scary. I still remember it well.


Chouzy~ I don't know what happened with J. Alba, but if it was recent and she was pregnant...they can detect that and would spend extra time hovering around her. They are amazing creatures!!! Got to learn so much about them on our adventure...it was like a mini class too :)
