I'm "Squirrely"?! 7 things that make me quirky

Mrs.Teeh just graced me with the, " I'm so

squirrely" award, now while I do love the little

 grey squirrels in my area, I've never been called

"squirrely.   I hope this is a compliment

lol.   According to Mrs.Teeh it means that I'm

quirky.   Well aint nobody gonna argue that.

 

So now I must list 7 quirky things about myself, only 7?!  Here goes...

 

1) I am a total germ-a- phobe when it comes to cooking with meat and eggs. I wash my hands and the

 

counter at least thirty times.  Watching John cook any of these items is pure torture to me and I nag

 

 him to wash his hands.

 

2) I have an obsession with fountain sodas and can tell you which places have the "good" coke or

 

 pepsi's and who has the "bad" ones and I choose accordingly.

 

3) I was a vegetarian for 5 years and finally started eating chicken in a McDonalds parking lot;

 

crying over a chicken nugget. My mom begged me to, she thought that I was too skinny at the time

 

 and wasn't getting enough protein. Oh to be in that position again :p

 

4) I became  full fledged meat eater one year later at my dad's, father's (my granddaddy's) wake

 

over a roast beef and muenster sandwich. It looked so good and I thought to myself, "Fuck it, life is

 

too damn short. I'm eating the roast beef." True story.

 

5)I crack a lot of my bones. Most people crack their knuckles. I crack my neck, wrists, ankles,

 

shoulders and back.

 

6) Just like Meg I am super picky about eating chicken, fish and meat. The slightest hint of pink or the

 

appearance of a (ugh I hate even typing this ) vein I cut around it. Can't eat it. Grosses me out.

 

7) I love seeing my hometown in movies. I get super excited every time a movie is filmed in

 

Pittsburgh.  I point out every landmark throughout the film, which is not annoying at all. Now that

 

I've lived in VA for 7 years I get excited seeing DC in films too, last nights

 

Hostages anyone?!
