Thank You Vindee, Lamb & Weirdest Meme


This is to thank Vindee for thinking of me when she made her Nalli Gosht...which turned out to be simple to make and OH SO darn good! I ate so much I hurt, shame on me! I also made Padma's Jeera Aloo along side...another nice dish! It was a good dinner, but I'm stuffed and ready for bed now!.........

...........I have been tagged by Happy cook to write seven weirdest facts about me :) So here goes the weirdest meme...

1) I have a bit of an obsessive personality. There is always something, at any given time, that I am constantly thinking about. I will not be able to get it out of my head...I'm never sure what makes each obsession go away, probably just a new one taking its place.

2) I love frogs and elephants. I don't know why those two critters are so cute to me, but they are! When I was a kid I would catch every frog or toad I could get my hands on, from teenie tiny ones the size of my pinkie to big ones I had to hold with both hands. Unfortunately, I didn't get the chance to catch an elephant :D

3) I am afraid of heights. Or maybe, more just afraid of being out of control. I am scared of elevators, planes, roller coasters...the list goes on. I am able to get on elevators and roller coasters but have not brought myself to get on a plane...yet! I will do it eventually.

4) I have to sleep with a fan on, I need the noise to sleep. I can't sleep in a quiet room, I will never fall asleep. It drives me nuts to try and sleep in a quiet room...also, I can't stand ANY light when I sleep...I like complete dark!

5) I never watch t.v. I don't know how weird that is, but a lot of people are surprised by the t.v. shows or movies I have not seen. I find it hard to sit for so long doing nothing. Unless I'm snuggled up with somebody ;)

6) I hate to walk through grass in my bare feet. I'm scared of the bugs, dead things, squishy things, sticks, poky things that I might encounter. I can do it if I have to, but I don't enjoy it!

7) I hate a lot of clutter. I don't like "things" sitting around that have no purpose. I have too much around me as it is and it drives me crazy!

I don't know who has or who hasn't done this meme so I'm not going to tag anyone in particular...so whoever sees this and wants to do this meme, then...........tag, you're it :)

Sultana said...

Heya Meeso :) hee hee im loving your quirky habits...We all have them so no need to feel weird! I agree with the fear of being out of control, but you know, i just think of it like this:We are never in control past our thoughts, God controls everything that happens from there!

It was funny and interesting to learn about you! especially the frog thing...So, that means you love Kermit huh??? heh heh....

Dori said...

~ Hey Sultana, yes I am full of quirky habits :) I hope I am not too much of a control freak :D Slowly, I will learn to let go...and, yes, Kermit is just the cutest :)

It's been a while since I came here. I see that I have missed so many of your posts. I'm just going through each one of them. Enjoyed reading your meme. Like frogs??? Really that's weird. But we have 2 things in common. Hate walking on the grass barefoot and having the fan on while sleeping. :-)

Dori said...

~ Kribha, I do love frogs! Ever since I was a kid I wanted to pick up and play with all kinds of toads and frogs :) And, yes, we have something in common with the grass and fan :)
