I like doing physical labor, and don't mind hanging out with the kids instead of adults, but am fine being all alone by myself, still plan on disciplining my kids when i have them, love to cook, sew, read, and tons of other things that some people consider obsolete, and have Christmas lights in my room year round cause they work wonderfully and look awesome! :grin:  and would love to build an undergound house!
Uh... sunlight, read the topic.  This thread is for anything most people would consider WEIRD about you.  All that stuff is normal.   I'd love an underground house if I could afford it.

I think I've figured out (part of) the reason you get along so well with kids.  You actually listen to them.  Not many people do, and they can tell the difference.

Well... okay, the christmas lights thing might be a bit weird.

I didn't find the christmas light thing weird at all. In fact, I leave 'em up too.  Of course it could be the fact that I'm too lazy to take them down. :biglaugh: And Chel, Lawanda said you're nuts, no one should like physical labor. :laughhard: I have to agree with her on this.. I've nearly made a career out of avoiding physical labor. :biglaugh:

You've obviously been hanging around Ruby too much. Seems to be alot of "chortling" going on.

There's a few underground houses, "earth homes" where I grew up.  I have heard that they utilities are amazing.  But I wonder about the lack of sunlight and compression of the house overtime being underground.  For example, would parts of it crack and from those cracks, things like worms find their way in? 

I think it would be neat to have a house carved out of one of those huge trees in California.  Is it the Redwood?

Oh yeah, one more weird thing about me.  This would fall in the use-whatever-works category probably.  I have a small media player (small size, but 40+ hour battery and holds all 3,735 songs with room to spare.) I hate the earbud cord hanging down and getting in my way, but I don't want to have to pull my shirt tail out to drop the cord down my shirt every time I start my music.  So I tied most of the earbud cord up in a bundle and I stick the bundle and the media player on my shoulder, just under my shirt. 

Why is this weird?  Dunno, but I sure have gotten a lot of double-takes.

I'm not a huge fan of chocolate and I can't stand dark chocolate - it gives me headaches...mind you I can't stand coffee either.....I'll eat chocolate if it's available in milk or white and a centre that I like....but only one to three pieces maybe.....I live with two chocoholics - they think I'm weird for that reason, I tell them oh well, more for them.

  I hate to say this, but being a self confessed chocoholic, I agree with your room mates. :biglaugh:

cheese and tomato soup...I just put some baby-bells in tomato soup and microwave the lot and you get cheesy tomato soup - camembert pieces in hot tomato soup works too.

upcchris this is a thread for weird stuff.  Camembert  in tomato soup is very good, not weird.

People think I eat weird things. What is weird about a cold spaghetti sandwich with mayo?

I keep Christmas lights in my room too Chel!!

I have about a dozen empty salsa jars sitting around my house. They store everything from loose change to Bobby pins to old keys (I collect them for crafts) to my many tubes of chapstick.

Almost every pair of pants and ever skirt I have has a wore out patch in the left pocket where I keep my chapstick.

I always have a hula hoop in my car.

Salsa jars as handy catch-all containers, check.

Patch on the pocket, check.  Almost every pair of pants I have has a hole in the right front pocket where my keys go.

Hula hoop... drawing a blank on that one.  You want to be prepared just in case a contest might start?  Or is this a habit from a different era?

Habit from now. I teach a hula hoop dance/exercise class at the theatre. It's good cardio and you can't help but smile while in a hula hoop

I forgot one...

Since I was a kid I never drink water or anything else with meals.  I always drink some water half an hour before a meal.  It's a health thing, the stomach digests food a lot better without all the water to dilute stomach acid.  My mother is a big health nut.  And if you're used to drinking before meals, drinking with meals makes you feel so bloated.  But it always knocks the poor waiter for a loop when he asks what I'm having to drink and I say nothing, thanks.  I'm keeping a record of how many times the waiter has asked "are you sure?"  So far the record is five. 

Uncle Fred suggests I just get a glass of water to avoid the trouble.  Trouble?  What trouble?  :hypocrite:  :smirk:

It works though.  I eat what I want, I don't watch what I eat (unless you count watching to make sure it doesn't fall off the fork,) I don't have a hyper metabolism and I don't weigh a lot.

Develop a hiatal hernia - you have to drink with meals or you become very ill. I usually drink water / club soda or tea with meals.  My grandmother had it so bad that once after 2 to 3  years, they had to surgically stretch her esophagus. The liquid helps us to swallow and digest food properly. I will become physically ill if I do not eat with some sort of liquid.

The way my uncle Fred drinks, you'd think he had a... whatever that is.  At the restaurant we most commonly adjourn to they know to just leave the pitcher (tea, unsweet) in front of him.  Otherwise he'll run them to death trying to keep his glass filled.
