Here are my 7 strange/weird things:

1. I planned my own "surprise" birthday party when I was 16 - my family and my best friend were the only ones who knew it wasn't really a surprise.

2. I am an absolute freak for proofreading, and typos make me cringe. (That's not to say I'm not as guilty of making them as the next person...)

3. Although I despise flying bugs, I try my hardest to just FREEZE, because my natural tendency is to scream!

4. It is almost impossible to actually embarrass me, since I am more likely to be the one doing the embarrassing thing in the first place. (Don't feel like this is a challenge, please!)

5. I find it easier to sleep when there is light and noise than when there is dark and quiet. (This was a big problem freshman year of college...)

6. After my cleaning ladies have been to my house, I like to walk from room to room just breathing in the sense of CLEAN for a moment. (Then my kids show up, and it's all over).

7. Renee wrote "7. I was kicked out of ballet when I was 3... the instructor told my mom I should pursue interests that don't require too much coordination." Well, I was not kicked out, because, although I was indeed the least coordinated child in the class, I was also the only one who could memorize all the steps! The teacher kept putting me in the front row, where I could be really terrible but the other girls could follow my lead, gracefully.
