Why I Am Weird!

February 7, 2009

I have decided to stop denying that I am not normal.  I don’t even try to be normal anymore…it is way too much energy.  I am accepting  the fact that I am weird.  So…I have decided that weekly I am going to list five reason why I am weird. (Maybe it is an exercise in self-acceptance.)

1.  I have an abnormal love of Cool Whip.  My love of Cool Whip is at such an extreme I can tell you how much is costs at various stores.  Most products I know how much it cost at a couple…cool whip I know the price at most major grocery retailers.  (This is for the Fat Free Version: Target: $1.02, Walmart $1.46, Shop N’ Save 1.68, Dierbergs 1.76)

2.  I love writing in pencil.  This is not something many adults like to do…but I love pencils.  I recently got a whole bunch of automatic pencils and I adore them!  I know it is only on step up from crayon…but my handwriting looks wonderful in pencil.

3.  I think Dry Erase Markers smell good.  I do not inhale them, it is bad for my brain and not Godly and just plain bad, but I love the smell.  When people buy the low odor ones…I am a little disappointed.  I have no idea why I think they smell great, but I do.  I am not suggesting it should be a new fragrance of body wash at Bath and Body Works, but I sure do like it.

4.  I am obsessed with eyebrows.  I pluck mine daily and complain about my husband’s constantly. (Sorry honey!) I cannot handle the uni-brow!  Stray hairs drive me nuts.  I just have to have them just so. (I sit in the bathroom sink…just so I can get close enough to the mirror to see the little random hairs.)

5.  I watch the Golden Girls everyday…even if for just a minute or two.  This might just be plain sad.  I have no idea why, but the show still make me laugh and can sooth me to sleep.  That Sophia can still get me!  (With this I must end this entry…because I am not just weird.  I am pitiful.)

    Hi Alisha, You don’t know me, but I found your blog through Kelli. I’m one of the kids from youth group. I just wanted to let you know that we share all but #4 in common (and that I should do more often). Maybe we were separated at birth? The next “Why I’m weird” list should confirm it. :) In all seriousness, I enjoy your blogs.

  4. Ummm…I have eaten Cool Whip all by itself…I mean whole thing…good times. You are not weird, most people don’t admit they do these things.
