Weird & ME

So, I have been tagged to share 6 weird things about myself... this was hard. But here it goes.
1. I loved the movie Grease so much as a kid that I tried to write the script out line by line. I got about as far as 15 minutes into the show and had over 20 pages, so I decided I might be in over my head.... luckily I came to my senses, what a waste of time.
2. I have a love-hate relationship with Pottery Barn. I love the catalogs and their interior design - I would like to think my home is somewhat reflective of their look and feel. But I hate them too! First they are so expensive and some of their items aren't even that good of quality (you shouldn't have to pay $1200 for something you have to assemble yourself) and the pages of the catalog are not reality. I want what they portray, but come on, when you have children and a real-life household, is it really possible to achieve what they display on their pages! I say NO - I just wish I could stop wanting it so badly.
3. I can't remember birthday's to save me life. I am the worst. I have tried so many different approaches to try and remember and still am the worst. So, to all my friend's out there that never get a birthday wish from me... I blame it on a diagnosed disease called birthdalitis. Hopefully they will come up with a cure someday.
4. I can't eat whole tomatoes. I like tomatoes and am able to eat them when they are diced, but to eat a whole tomatoe (either fresh or canned) actually any size tomatoe bigger than a grape ... I just can't do it. My husband often gets eats my extra tomatoes, because he can't bare to see them go to waste.
5. I love the color red. If there is a product that you can get in red, I will be whatever extra cost to get it. My toaster, my kitchen aid utensils, my razr phone...I tried to get a red kitchen aid mixer, but when I bought mine, they didn't have red yet... so sad, I had to settle for blue. Someday, I will trade it in for a red one. I think I have an unhealthy addiction to the color RED!
6. My second toe is longer than my big toe. They say it is a sign of royalty... all I know is that it makes me go through nylons about 3 times faster than the normal-toed person.
As for tagging someone else. I will stop the madness, I think everyone has already been tagged.

i'm with you on the tomato thing. the thought of biting into a whole tomato grosses me out. so i guess that number 7 for me. :)
I wonder if this is a Brimhall thing...because I am the same way. Sliced, diced, chopped, stewed...whatever but just not whole! I can't even do the cherry tomatoes...something about the juices popping out everywhere...ewwww!
So, I haven't seen your house in Caly, but I'm absolutely certain that it could be used for a Pottery Barn catalog spread. Especially your new photo wall from a recent post. I'd be happy to have my house look like something out of a K-mart catalog, but I missed out on the decorator genes that seem to run in biological Yeakleys.
There is nothing wrong with red. It is a good color, but it makes me wonder about the whole tomato thing. Do you have a love hate relationship with red too?
Loving red is not weird! I love red too. I have a red kitchen aid mixer and refrigerator!
