10 Weird Things Meme
Ganked from bunnynumber13:
TMI, eh?
bunnynumber13:1. I don't talk in my sleep... unless spoken to. At which point, depending on the dialog, I can continue to carry a conversation while I'm blissfully unconscious. I attribute this to the majority of ne_today 's annoyance with me, seeing as how she says there are lots of things we'd discussed that I have no memory of.
2. Speaking of sleep, I don't remember my dreams. As in, I will remember maybe two or three dreams a year.
3. When it came time for me to apply to colleges, I was genuinely torn on pursuing subjects I enjoyed (Japanese language and art) or going into engineering, so that I could become skilled enough to build my robot army and slaughter 70% of the world's population to bring about world peace. No, seriously. I'd have killed you all.
4. I know next to nothing about music. I still have problems remembering who all the Beatles are. I blame living out in the boonies far from any respectable radio station. Hell, even the disreputable ones were hard to find.
5. I don't like warm beverages. Not tea, not coffee, not hot chocolate, not none o' that stuff. Don't ask me to explain this, I just don't. Though I like soup. There's just something in my head that says "beverages should be cold!" and I listen because that's what you do with the voices in your head, right?
6. My first ever movie going experience was going with my mom and my ex-step-dad to see Blue Thunder, starring Roy Schneider and thus that movie has a permanent place in my heart. I don't care that it's basically not-quite!Airwolf, I still love it.
7. Though I don't regret letting my 4 year old son play with the G1 Optimus Prime I bought for cheap in pique of nostalgia, every now and then I do cringe when ol' Prime takes a tumble off my art desk. But I refuse to become that guy!
8. Through years of judo, kendo and kempo practice, I no longer try to catch myself when I fall. I'm out of practice enough to where I can't duck into a roll anymore, either, so whenever I fall, I do so like a felled tree.
9. In relation to number 8, for about... TWO YEARS I couldn't remember whether it was four steps or five from my living room to the upper level of my split-level home. Thus I found myself falling face-first because I didn't realize I was one step above the floor when I shifted my weight. Now I count those steps, even if only in my head... and I still fell once.
10. The creases and lines in the palms of my left and right hands don't match. Most people's I've found, while not identical still have a very close degree of symmetry. The head, life, heart, etc lines don't even come close to matching. My mother still contends that this is due to me being born with a caul.
