^I do want to come there someday! Mostly to get in touch with the heritage and ancestry of my family. I'm told I'm part Irish, from both sides of the family, but I'm not sure how much. I've never done a geneology or anything. Maybe that's why I feel a connection to Ireland somewhere inside of me. And I can speak with a pretty convincing Irish accent if I ever needed to. Idk maybe I'm just weird.

Well, most Americans can be traced to some part of this little country and half of Ireland are living in America so you are in good company, maybe you could ask Obama to keep a seat for you on Air Force One when he pops over here next month :wink:

That would be cool.




I had to edit this post cuz I was the last one, but this is related to one of the weird things I said about myself.

The one where I said that I was a little psychic. Well it just occured to me that I sort of did it again. For two days I've been walking around with the song "Have You Forgotten" by Daryl Worrley stuck in my head! Now all I can do is just sit here and cry.

I thought of another one!

Well...

I'm the fastest and one of the best readers in my class (and year), but English has never been my favourite subject at school...more like my least favourite actually.
:D Enjoy your day~

I just thought of another as well.

My favorite food is Chinese Food, and I eat it with chopsticks because it just doesn't taste the same if I don't.

YAY! I missed this thread! So happy i found it! Wasnt hard considering i've posted on it more than anyone else.. haha. :shock:
And yes i found more things to add to the list. :mrgreen:

I hate when people spell blonde blond. Drives me insane.
I tend to paint alot, i'm actually pretty good, but i cant do faces. ever. So most of my paintings are faceless people. Most people take it as an artistc thing, but nope. I just suck at it.
When i was little i wanted to be Xena so bad, i personally trained myself for it everyday.
I even wore the costume to school everyday for a month. :oops:
Lord Byron was the first man i ever fell in love with (i was nine). I even celebrated his birthday and read everything he wrote on the anniversary of his death. Then it was Edgar Allen Poe, Keats (for his letters to Fanny, not his poetry), and finally Oscar Wilde. After a while all of their days added up rather quickly so i just quit. Still love them all though.
I've broken more phones than i can count. Most of them i drown in margarita glasses on accident.
I can never keep a pet for very long. Either they get lost or stolen. Only two have actually died. And neither of those were my fault.
A dog (not mine) once commited suicide and threw himself down the stairs because his owner left me alone with him for five minutes. I was suppose to watch him while my boyfriend at the time was on vacation. He apparently didnt like that idea. Most pets love me, so dont think i'm evil.
"Turn around, look at me" by the Vogues scares the hell out of me.

More from me:

...I compulsively get rid of stuff, any stuff, in order to have an uncluttered home, yet...

...I hate to toss anything out unless I've used every last bit of it, like toothpaste. It's got to have the life squeezed from it.

...I once had all my books covered with white paper dust jackets, and loved the look of it, but had to give it up because I acquired too many books.

...I'm allergic to metal so I can't wear earrings. The holes never heal. Yet, I am not so allergic that I can't wear finger rings.

...Every day I wish I'd become a lounge singer in Vegas.
...I also started compulsively getting rid of items, especially clothes because I used to have so much stuff my in laws and my husband made jokes about me being a hoarder!

.... I also can't stand throwing out things like toothpaste, toilet paper rolls unless EVERYTHING is used.

.... I HATE wasting food.

.... I am allergic to Nickel; therefore, I can't wear certain belts, some jean buttons bother me, I have to have real jewelry like white gold, I think I can wear sterling silver as long as it says it's hypo-allergenic.

.... I am OCD on how I eat my food (one food at a time on my plate - I can't mix the food), I am OCD on how I place my dishes in the dishwasher and they HAVE to be rinsed off, I'm OCD on my dishes and other items being placed BACK where I put them (ex. Coffee cups go on one row of shelving in my cabinet and my plastic cups go on a different shelf).

.... I AM a Female mechanic and I absolutely love working on cars! :)

-- 26 Jan 2014, 20:34 --

.... If there's a question i don't know the answer to, I use google... I use google for everything and am not fond of bing at all! (I'm sure this isn't THAT unusual)

Cheyrl, my uncle ate like that just one thing at a time. I just shovel it in, it all ends up in the same place.

You dont see many female mechanics. Ive never liked to work on cars, but with the old clunks Ive owned it was a neccesity. Newer cars are a mystery to me with all the electronics and stuff, I wouldnt even attempt to work on them. Ive often threatened to get a 49 Chevy, something you could overhaul with a pair of pliers and a screwdriver. :lol:

I agree about wasting food. I live alone and its hard to buy stuff just for one person, I usually have a lot of leftovers. When it gets too old I give any extra to some friends who are having a rough time of it.

My wife was also allergic to metal earrings. She could only wear gold. Needless to say, she didnt have many earrings. :lol:
