I've been tagged by three different people...Diana, Deena, and Ellie. Sorry it's taken me so long to respond. I really enjoyed reading everyone elses "tagged" items so I thought ya'll might like to see what I have to write about.

7 Random/Weird Facts About Me

1. I have a problem collecting cups in my bedroom. Huh?!?, you ask. I have a tendency to get a cup of water and take it to my bedroom to drink while I'm getting ready for work/getting ready for bed/cleaning/reading/etc. Then I never remember to take it back to the kitchen. Pretty soon I've got like 8 or 9 cups sitting in my room. Eventually I've got to collect them all, and take them back to the kitchen for washing.

2. I LOVE action and superhero movies. In fact, I don't really like chic flicks, and romantic comedies are usually annoying more than they are appealing. I LOVE watching things like Bourne Identity (loved all three movies), Iron Man, Transformers, Van Helsing, X-Men, League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Casino Royal, etc.

3. When I get very, very nervous or anxious (or unsure of myself) I hum. I don't actually hum any tune or anything recognizable. I just hum. I guess it helps to take my mind of whatever is bothering me.

4. Last year during a routine physical exam with my doctor, she found two lumps in my left breast. I had to do the whole mammogram & ultrasound thing. And eventually I had 4 small biopsy done. Fortunately they were diagnosed as benign masses. However, I'm now on the Breast Center's hit list so I've got to go in every year for a mammogram. It's one of the only things that mars the month of October. :(

5. I love jewelry. I guess because it's one of the few things that tends to fit me no matter what. Despite being poor as a church mouse, I find that I can still accumulate jewelry at a surprising rate. Most of all I enjoy picking up jewelry when I travel. I love having the travel memory associated with a piece of jewelry. That way every time I wear it I can recall the wonderful memories associated with it.

6. I once read a Reader's Digest article about a women who kept a personal record of "50 Things I Want To Do Before I Die". I've always remembered the article and I've got my own list of 50 Things. One of my "things" is to cook/bake something so well that I feel confident entering it in a contest.

7. I LOVE learning new things. It's actually one of my life's passions. It doesn't really matter what it is, I want to learn about. I tend to ask people all kinds of questions and I enjoy all those "How Is It Made" shows on TV. It almost this compulsion I have to learn about everything. I could sit and pick someone's brain for hours about what they do. Last time I went to my eye doctor's I sat and asked him all about what happens physiologically to your eyes and vision as you age. It was a very interesting conversation!

Well I think that's enough about me and I'm sure I have once again confirmed that I am WEIRD!
