Embrace the Weird

As a part of this whole "figuring myself out before I hit 30" thing, I've decided to finally embrace the weird.  Everyone has little things that make them weird to another person.  These things are what make us unique.  So why are we all so afraid to let each other see them?  Weird can be fun and surprising!  I'm not saying my particular brand of weird is all that fun and surprising to everyone, but it just might be to some.  In the case it is fun and exciting to you, please let me know.  I'm pretty sure my friends and family just think I've gone slightly mad : )

~I like old fashioned radio shows.  Radio dramas and theatre can still be found on BBC radio and since we live in the 21st century, I can listen to them on the Internet.  They're kinda like seeing a play in your head.  Everyone who listens is getting a different experience.

~I get excited if the psychology in a show or a book is bang-on.  I was a Psych major so seeing these things done well, makes me happy.  In turn, I get really excited if I "diagnose" the patient before the fake psychiatrist/psychologist does.  (It's the little things in life...)

~I'm an Iced Tea connoisseur.  I judge restaurants by the quality of their iced tea.  Since I hate soda and water is just down-right boring, I always order Iced Tea-no lemon. I remember most restaurants that have "bad" tea and will never order it there again.  Mind you, it's never truly "bad" I just think it tastes funny, or like cough syrup or has a sprig of mint in it that makes it taste gross.

~I get most geeky fangirl-esque Sci-Fi references, but pretend I don't to protect my (not really at all) cool factor.

~I like to think of myself as a foodie but there are a LOT of foods I just hate!

~I secretly correct bad grammar in my head, and not so secretly correct typos that I see.  This is more of an affliction really - I'm not sure there's a cure!

There you have it then.  More about me than you probably ever wanted to know...
