Random Things Meme
I've been tagged by Xavier Emmanuelle
Here are the rules: Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves. Write a post about your own random things. Post these rules. At the end of your blog, tag 8 people and post their names. Don't forget to leave them a comment and tell them they're tagged.
WARNING: Some of the things in this post are a bit gross... just so you know now. Don't say I didn't warn you.
1. I pick the skin off my feet because my heels are constantly itchy... it's gross but I can't help it and nobody has ever been able to tell me why they're SO ITCHY
2. I really like to count things in a sort of subconscious way. I walk down the street and suddenly realize I've been counting my footsteps, it's a bit OCD, I know.
3. I'm really interested in sexuality and other people's sex lives.
4. I LOVE THE CBC - if I could have an 'I heart CBC' t-shirt I would (sorry Xavier, kind of stole this one from you, but it's true)
5. Tomato sandwiches with a bit of salt and margarine are one of my all time favorite things
6. I often wear shoes that are 1/2 size too small to make my feet look smaller
7. When I do something new I always convince myself that I'm fearless, then about 15 minutes in I realize that I'm scared shitless and can't get out of it
8. I am a crier, anything touching, sad, bitter sweet, etc. makes me cry. Especially in books or other works of fiction.
9. I have pooping attacks all the time where I suddenly have to poop so badly I think I'm going to die and I get hot flashes because of it and need to find a bathroom pronto - sorry if that's more information than you wanted to know about me.
Xavier already tagged most of my blogging buddies! I'll tag Couz, Cal, Angry (although I suspect he's not the meme type), Nathan, MWWAK, Obgyn Kenobi, TriThinkingPink's Captain Pants AND Captain Cactus

Oh my God, almost all of your random facts also apply to me! How weird is that?
What time were you in Bluenotes today? Just curious to know if you were there when I was working!
I probably shouldn't mention this, but I'm totally with you on the skin thing. In fact, when I get a bad sunburn (I burn really easily), I enjoy that relief-of-itching feeling when you peel off the peeling layer of dead skin. I'm such a weirdo!
I was reading this post again this morning, and it's crazy how many of these we have in common!
I don't think that the subconsciously counting your steps thing is OCD -- I've done it since I was a child, and it's more to keep your mind entertained than anything. It's cool to see that someone else does it too though!
CBC rocks, but I rarely admit it, because it is definitely not "cool" to listen to Sounds Like Canada while you do your homework :)
I heart tomato sandwiches, but I use pepper instead of salt, and the bread must be toasted. Mmm... now I'm hungry...
So, did I see you at work yesterday? Did I? Huh? Did I?
Nope. I didn't start work until 5.
There is NOTHING wrong with the CBC. I grew up with it, and I find that the smart people I admire all listen to it as well... Don't be embarassed by it! Embrace it! Spread the word! The more people who shout it's virtues in public, the safer it is a Canadian Institution!!
