5 things you never wanted to know about me.

[Tawse]

1. I have a 10" bowie blade (black matte blade and handle) between the mattress and box spring on my side of the bed.. with the hilt sticking out far enough to reach it should I need.

2. I have a double headed battle axe under my side of the bed.

3. I may be a little paranoid about protection while sleeping.

4. As a kid I loved horror books and movies but I have come to the conclusion as an adult that I just can't handle them anymore. I don't jump, or scream, but my mind wakes up and won't shut up for weeks.

5. I have a pretty decent collection of "living dead dolls" and plan on getting more.

[chai~]

1. Submarine's freak me out. The look of them, the idea of being in one, seeing them in dry dock, and even seeing them when they are in the water, just floating on top! *shivers*

2. I like oranges with crunch. I peel the orange, separate all the sections, arrange them on a plate so that the thin skin can dry out, and eat it a couple of hours later. The skin is dry and crunchy and the inside is extra juicy!!!

3. I organize and purge constantly. Disorder makes me crazy.

4. About a week before my "monthly", I move the furniture around, I mean the couch gets put on a different wall, the tv goes someplace else, pillows get changed. I super clean everything and feather my nest!

5. I have about 9 books on my night stand at any given time and I read them all at the same time. I don't start one and read it completely through. I juggle them all. Geeze I love books!

[JAGG]

I clinch my teeth constantly, which I was unaware of, my dentist pointed it out.
I chew gum alot , so I don't clinch my teeth.
I hum when I'm working and I like the project I'm doing. Another thing I was unaware of until it was pointed out to me.
I whistle to myself when I'm unconfortable or nervous. So does my dad. LOL
I don't like being bitten by anything or anyone. Don't even pretend .

[persiphone]

i don't like the shower curtain to touch me when i'm in the shower. i will avoid it at all costs.

spitting out toothpaste in front of anyone makes me wanna hurl.

do not discuss your bathroom time with me and making comments about my bathroom time when i emerge it from could possibly be THE biggest turn off evar.

i play with my lower lip when deep in thought.

i can't endure people that can't laugh.

[Inked_Trinity]

I very rarely watch TV

I went to college on a full ride athletic scholarship

I WILL NOT EVER wear anything pink!

Until I have coffee in the morning.... all you will get are grunts out of me.

I have 10 yr old boy fart humor!

I clench mine too. Grind them in my sleep as well.

It's bad for the teeth but good for me because it keeps me from knocking some folks around once in a while.

Me too! The curtain feels weird on wet skin.

I don't like the spitting either but I can deal with it. For me, it's the location of the spit that counts. Folks that brush their teeth in the kitchen sink make my stomach clench. I can get past doing it in the shower. I understand the reasoning behind it, though I can't do it myself, but the kitchen is off limits for that stuff.

I had a roommate that shaved her legs in the kitchen sink. A short lived partnership THAT was.

Cleaning teeth in the kitchen sink *shudders at the thought* is sooooo unhygienic, as is shaving legs, etc....I'd have the industrial strength bleach out!

[Jett]

1. I get obsessed with weird foods, as a rule they are mostly at the extremes of spicy, tart, salty or just plain strange combinations and I'll eat it at least daily for weeks or even months. Example would be a green olive and mayo sandwich, Tabasco on eggs or maybe just putting mango habanero sauce on everything semi-reasonable.

2. I'm claustrophobic and once was so resistant to getting into an MRI machine they had towel put over my face and drug me to get me too agree.

3. I have bad allergies, I should own stock in Kleenex for that one, sux...
also to band-aids, pine trees, bee stings, my own tattoo ink (it welts up now and again, different colors on different days) etc. etc. etc. I'm fairly sure I'm not from this planet... o.@

4. I sleepwalk, pretty rarely, inert things like making food, brushing my hair, texting or putting the coffee in the freezer but may or may not have been known once to tear out of my bedroom before returning to save my gal and the furkids lol.

5. I have very long sharp canine teeth, enough to make peeps comment... as a kid I was asked more than I can count if I am a vampire, fortunately not so much from adults... so if your wondering, yes, I am a vampire... >:[

Well, the kitchen is far more filthy from germs than the bathroom....true statement!....but it still icks me out to the nth degree.

What!!!??? YOU- knocking some people around!! ....

I really am a germphobe, so please keep things in the bathroom that ought to be there! And the candles and matches are there as a means of courtesy for others that have to use it too!

What ever happened to common courtesy and thinking about others around us? LOL, guess I'm not good with self-centeredness, either.... and when you grow up with lots of sibs and boarders in a very small home with only 1 bathroom, awareness of how your actions (or in-action, like leaving your mess behind in commom living areas), does seep through.

I get bored with obsessive collectors. It's wonderful your collection of every and any Harry Potter/cat/coffee mug..... related item in the entire world gives you pleasure. Please don't feel the need to share your enthusiasm and gleefulness over every purchase with me.

Clutter irritates me. I'm neither a clean or tidy freak but piles of newspapers, mail, dirty dishes (I don't mean the odd glass or coffee mug) in the sitting room, especially if piled on the floor, makes me want to sweep it all into a bag and drop it in the bin.

I choose not to be around very negative people. I'm a great listener, a supportive friend.... but if you make no effort to see the good in each day or any day.... well, it exhausts me.

Don't bitch constantly about your grown up kids. Either support them with good grace or stop enabling their behaviour. Or.... enable their behaviour and whine to someone else about it. It's ok if you forget because I will remind you.

I won't allow anyone to smoke in my home or car. No exceptions. That said, I won't bitch about how much you smoke or nag you to stop. That's your business. No snogs though

Ditto!

[Kätzchen]

I used to care about making my bed but don't care about it anymore.

I do have a very sweet nature about me but I'm quite skillful with my...
>>> Femme Death Stare <<<

I like to listen to the dishwasher at really odd times during the day.

I'm equally talented with using fly swatters.

I love shopping for antiques.

[Soft*Silver]

I am a procrastinator. I put everything off. I use to think it was because i was so busy but now that I am not busy at all, i still do it.

I sleep two hours, wake up, toss and turn for an hour, sleep two, repeat cycle once more, get up and have my day. Sleep is restless, and I rarely get the rest I desire

I am so not a germ aphobe. I wouldnt shave my legs in the sink, tho. LOL. I think we live in an already too sterile environment and use way too many chemicals to separate us from natural living. From the foods we eat to how we clean our environments and bodies. The more we use chemicals to "clean" the more we get sick as a species.

I havent seen a movie in the theater in a long time. I miss it. But I cant stand the nuisance of other people. I am becoming more and more a recluse. I dont like the outside world all that much

I have two different ways to make my S's when i write. I use them both randomly.

I'm the same way, but with 2's!!!

And a's.

I hate it when people call me, chatter away and then say “well I’m going to let you go now”, it really pisses me off. You were not holding me hostage. I was there on the phone of my own free will. I could have gone at any time. I’ve been known to just hang up when someone says that.

My feet have to be touching something. They can’t just hang out in the air. They have to touch the floor, a sheet if I’m in bed, each other, something, and socks touching them don’t count.

I love animals. All animals. So when I was offered a job as a dog officer I jumped at the chance, thinking it would be something I would love and that I would be good at it. I did it for a year. It was one of the most difficult periods in my life.

I am quite claustrophobic. Among other things centered around that phobia, I have a fear of riding on an elevator unless it is made of glass and I can see out. Through circumstances beyond my control I found myself living in an apartment eleven stories up. Walking up and down eleven flights of stairs every time I went anywhere got old pretty quick. I did desensitization techniques on myself and I always carried a book in case I got stuck so I could have something to do besides screaming and rolling myself into a ball. I am still not comfortable and some days it’s not possible and some elevators are just unacceptable but most of the time I can ride in one without freaking.

I hate drinking out of plastic but I am also fussy about glass. I have to wash the glass several times and rinse it for two minutes to be really happy about my drinking experience.

[persiphone]

i hate gross feet. and i will stare at them thinking about how much they gross me out but i.still.can't.look.away. this includes funky toes.

unwashed hands before touching food will make me into instabitch.

i'm obsessed with the cleanliness of my kid's teeth. i must inspect them daily before i'll let him go to school/bed. i'm justified in this obsessiveness by the fact that he's gone 12 years without a cavity.

don't touch my boobies. i don't like it and you're doing it wrong anyway.

i'm so skilled at being vindictive and getting away with it that it's scary because i'm an opportunist. it's so scary that i'm very careful not to act this way cuz it's so harmful but i recognize those opportunities on a regular basis and refrain from acting on them. it's fun to play out in my head though.

[SoNotHer]

"Instabitch"? Is that a new energy drink that gives you a kick when you need it (and where you don't need it)?
