I Got Flogged

Just kidding....

I got tagged by two different friends. Normally, I delete these and don't even bat an eye. But I'm feeling especially vulnerable to peer pressure and maybe somewhat guilty so I will do them.

The first tag was to post 6 quirky things about myself. Here goes:

1) I buy only white or green plastic hangers. White ones for me and Geoff, green ones for the kids. Why do I do this? I don't know. But today, just to prove I could, I hung some of the kids' clothes on white hangers!

2) I have stinky feet. There. I said it. Now you all know.

3) I used to have a really pronounced Oklahoma accent. I first noticed it when I lived with a girl from New Hampshire right after high school. I thought to myself "I like her accent better". And the rest is history. To the best of my knowledge, I haven't had an Oklahoma accent since then.

4) I like potted meat sandwiches. What is potted meat you might ask... exactly. Click on this link for a colorful explanation of what it is. But just to give you some history - when I was little, my dad would make these by spreading the potted meat on one piece of bread and Miracle Whip on the other and then put a piece of American cheese in between. Oh.. and it HAS to be white sandwich bread... preferably Wonder Bread. Now, I have to admit that nutritionally this is horrible for you and I will say that I RARELY eat them. Usually I only make them when I'm trying to get the missionaries to taste something they have never had before. AND I try REALLY hard not to think about what it's made out of.

Should I go on? I mean really, that last one was a doozie. Pretty gross. Surely you don't want to know anymore...

Alright, alright... settle down. I'll try to think of two more.

Cue the Jeopardy Theme Song.

5) I've never had a Klondike Bar.

6) My big toe and 2nd toe are webbed together. From too much skiing as a kid. Not really. I only said that because my brain hurts from trying to think of one last quirky thing about me. Feel free to share quirky things about me that you're aware of!

The second tag was to go to the 4th folder and post the 4th picture you have.

I didn't like that picture so I chose the 9th folder and the 21st picture instead:

Because I'm absolutely sure that if I don't tag anyone, this will end tagging on the World Wide Web, I choose no one!

6. You forgot that you tend to make weird moaning and grunting noises as you fall asleep. But I like the webbed toe idea better.

This post could be titled "Confessions of a Funny/Wierdo Mom" ("Wierdo" in the best way!)
LOVE the stinky feet confession. P.S. Who doesn't???

Nikki!! My husband does NOT have stinky feet... curse him!! And ironically enough #6 was dedicated to your husband! I noticed once that his toes were a little webbed and I asked him why. He told me it was from so much skiing! I stole that line from him!!! Love ya, Mckay!

haha. NICE. Now go get yourself a Klondike bar woman!! You've been so deprived!

I love how you totally didn't follow the rules AT ALL with the picture thing. Dang funny.

I never knew your toes were webbed. Really? That's weird.

You do make grunting noises when you sleep. I would know....me and my poligamist little self.

I love you cuz your funny. Thanks for the laughs.

This was a great post! (That's why people want these to be passed along.) I generally don't participate in stuff you are supposed to pass along, but requests like these generate interesting responses! So nice going.
