Nine Weird Things About Me.

I got tagged (THANKS A LOT, EMMA!), so here we go. Nine weird things about me. Some of these things may already be apparent in my writings, but hopefully not. And while some of them are just weird freaky things there are indeed some that are quite embarassing. Eep.

1. I have the uncanny ability to look at digital clocks at exactly 12:34. Seriously, no kidding. It only happens twice a day, but best bet is I'll catch it at both instances.

2. I have a secret crush on Steve Carell. OMG, I have no idea why cause he's not exactly the most aesthetically pleasing guy out there. I think it's his adorableness.

3. I hate dairy. I hate cheese (unless it's on a pizza) and drinking milk, eating yoghurt and all that stuff just... no. But, cheese is the worst. I wanna gag whenever i taste it. Gross.

4. I have a big giant massive phobia of bees and wasps. So much so that just the other day when a bee flew in front of my face I nearly had a full on panic attack right out in the open with other people around. And once when one landed on me at work I had to stop working because I was so freaked out.

5. I turned The Da Vinci Code off half way through because it was making me sleepy. It is so bad. I had to return the DVD to the shop, but I put it on my computer so I'll try and watch the rest of it later.

6. I have a date on Saturday night. Like, a dinner-and-a-movie type date. How odd. His name is Nick, which is hilarious to me because I've had three crushes in the past all with the name Nick (or Nic in one case, but that's details).

7. One of my top 5 lines of dialogue is "I've got towels!" from Showgirls right after Nomi tells her black dancer friend that they can't have sex cause she's got her period. So romantic, non?

8. I own a Spirited Away fan! My friend in LA gave it to me as a present when I visited her over there. She also gave me a Van Helsing action figure that looks nothing like Hugh Jackman. But I can imagine. Oh yes, I can.

9. I'm gonna go watch Freedomland now. I... am not anticipating greatness.

Apparently I need to tag nine others! Crikies. Umm... How about, Adam K, Ali, Javier (to get out of his writing funk), Mike, Cal, Drew, Ramification, David and Simon. Sorry.

Freedomland is AWFUL. And...Julianne Moore...*whispers* is kind of bad in it. :O

Gah! I can't believe I just said that.

Freedomland is awesome & Julianne Moore is amazing in it. Her monlogue to Lorenzo towards the end of the film is heartbreaking. Currently #4 on my Top 10 list of 2006 so far.

You hate dairy? Maybe you should give up meat and thus become vegan. It's the only truly moral diet option for those who love animals. I am not one, but I respect those who are.

I never date. I kinda wish I did. But who actually dates? Especially among gay people.

And I these Steve Carrell IS actually rather aesthetically pleasing. No guilt about that crush. He is cute.

well done on narrowing it down to nine

i do that 12:34 thing all the time too; spooky

be honest; was that nic crush on "our nic"?

i challenge you to use the "i've got towels" line on your date

Glenn Dunks said...

Par, No. "Our Nic" is not one "my Nic". And, what do I get for using the "I've got towels" line?

Adam, I know right! Weird. It just kind of happened. I love meat btw. LOL.

Barry, I'm afraid I agree with dl. eep.

Very Interesting... me as well... 3 of my ex-bfs had a "Nic" in their name...
Ok, I am in germany, so it was more like "DomeNICk" and "NICklas".
Anyway... Scary!
Greetings to down under and happy halloween^^

"I own a Spirited Away fan!"

Hah, when I first read that, I had a vision of you holding a Miyazaki enthusiast hostage in your basement.
