Random and Weird…..

Listen up, bitches!  I know you run right past memes in the feed reader however…this one is different. Dfferent, how?  Well cause really, I am only doing it because I can use these six things towards my "100 Things List"  love Sugarpanties.  So yeah, I don’t know how this thing started out but by the time it got to me, it’s all about listing six random and weird things about myself…that’s not that freaking hard, unfortunately ;).

The rules according to Karen Sugarpants, the delicious cherry who tagged me:

1. Link to the person who tagged you.
2. Post the rules on your blog.
3. Write six random/weird things about yourself.
4. Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs.
5. Let each person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.
6. Let your tagger know when your entry is up.

Yeah I don’t know how many of these rules I will actually follow when all is said and done, but let’s get to the gettin’ and figure it all out from there, m’kay?

Weird Hilly Thing #1 - I go to Starbucks every weekday morning, where I proceed to order a Venti Americano with 2% milk and 2 packets of Splenda.  The kicker is that I only drink about two-thirds of the damned coffee, if that.  Every morning I think to myself, "I should just get a Grande instead" and yet…I don’t.  I pay for the Venti and you want to know why?  Just in case that day is the day I want it all. 

Weird Hilly Thing #2 - I get a sick secret satisfaction (alliteration!) when people who have resisted the urge for so long, come down the rabbit hole and join us on Twitter.  It makes me grin especially wide if it is someone who smack-talked it forever before succumbing to the sweet sweet twats.

Weird Hilly Thing #3 - I have to eat all things frozen (like ice cream and frozen yogurt) with a plastic spoon.  In fact, I won’t eat those things with a metal spoon at all.  Hrm, it seems the secret to my weight loss might lie in plastic silverware!

Weird Hilly Thing #4 - I’ll watch TV shows even if I know that they’ll be a total train wreck….just so I can have had the experience of watching it.  You’ve seen my teevee blog so I know that you know that I know that you know what I mean ;).

Weird Hilly Thing #5 - Whenever a song comes on in the grocery store, drug store, or really any kind of store, I feel the need to sing along with it.  I don’t even care if it is a song that I hate or if Celine Dion is singing it.  Not only that, but suddenly that becomes the best damned song ever made and before I know it, I’m in the middle of the Border’s checkout line with a Kelly Clarkson CD in my hand.  Le sigh.

Weird Hilly Thing #6 - Since we’re talking about music now, I have something terrible to admit.  But since that *is* the point of this whole freaking post, here goes.  Whenever *I* get an earworm, especially a very heinous one, I like everyone else to get it in their heads and suffer with me!  That being said, some of you were privy to my latest foray into musical madness last night, but just in case not…I give you my stinky stupid earowrm:

Weird Hilly Thing #7 - I don’t follow rules all that well, as illustrated by the fact that I made up a seventh freakstick thing about me just so that I could grab your attention!  Do I have it?  Great, now please go over to Miss Britt’s blog and show her support in whatever way you can.  You see, her family lives in a small town that was destroyed by the tornado in Iowa and she immediately drove a gajillion miles to be with them.  Avitable is updating her site daily, so please check in.  You don’t have to donate money (although there are links to do so) but please offer a hug, some support, some prayers and juju (or "JewJew", as Shiny would say) or just plain let her know that you’re there.  Right so, don’t follow rules too well especially when my friend-loyalty comes into play.  Seriously.

And….here is where the little rebel in me comes out to play.  I’m not tagging anyone.  Nope, not gonna do it.  I will say, however, that I’d love all of you to do this!  Please?  For me?  Okay okay, manipulation gets me nowhere, I see ;).

Ooky Spooky Kisses,
Me

    OK. I was able to stop the video once I heard the engine turn over. Because that sound alone told me what song it is. Because that’s one of my weird skills. In those few seconds, I was able to identify the song and to know that I didn’t want to hear anymore.

    Oh, and I’m going to make you go shopping with my mom since she often breaks into song in stores.

    Hilly thing #2 is clearly about me. I can tell because you freestyled some sweet twat at the end.

    Twitter is an instrument of the devil! It really is.

    I totally relate to that coffee thing. I do the same thing with coffee and water. Godforbid I run into a drought or something. I need to be hydrated. :)

    I can’t wait to see what Google does with “sweet sweet twats.” Ha ha…

    I’m scared to click the video cuz I don’t wanna get an earworm! But I totally do that singing along in the grocery store thing. The other day it was Sunglasses at Night and I thought my 9 year old was going to die of embarrassment. I’m a mean mom.

    Fucking Billy Ocean? You are evil. And I successfully avoided that ear worm, but thanks to Brandon, now I have Carribean Queen stuck in my head. Damn.

    It is sacrilege to waste the coffee. Drink it all.

    I don’t understand the infatuation with Americano’s… much less the whole “Venti” and “Grande” usage. I prefer my coffee cold… and my bagel warm.

    Also… with music videos like that… it’s amazing MTV survived the 80’s at all.

    Damn my stupid need to click the video. Good thing I already have Rocket Queen by Guns N Roses stuck in my head and this did not take it down. I would actully welcome ANY song but that to be stuck in my head since it has been there for weeks now for no apparent reason.

    I am definitely going to Britt’s. I feel awful for her family and wish I could be there to help take care of everyone.

    I did 6 whacked out things Feb 19th. Or thereabouts. Me doing 6 things is like letting all of you into the Twilight Zone. LOL I’m a lot weird.

    Brandon: Dude. You. Suck. Expect Twatter retribution!

    Dagny: That’s a really neat skill to have. Shawn and I often have played “name that tune” with Sirius radio!

    Vahid: Oh you know I’ll always freestyle some sweet sweet _______ for you ;).

    Nat: Your revenge should include you coming here to carry it out :).

    Avitable: You won’t be so lucky next time. I may just start “Ocean Rolling” you ;).

    Kapgar: Well that *was* the point, silly!

    Whall: Oh, you and your jokes!

    Karen: Hahahaha, exactly! Please don’t ever tell anyone this but…sometimes I won’t drink my water all the way down before tossing the bottle…shhhh.

    Sugarpanties: But you neeeeeeeeed to click the video! Heh heh. Sweet sweet sugarpanties.

    Kim: See? You should have watched the video! If for nothing else than for the entertainment value of how shitty it is!

    Dawg: Hey, if there was another drive through coffee by work, I’d go somewhere that I don’t have to succumb to the douchebaggery of saying “venti”. But yah, wow on how crappy the videos were!

    Tori: I know…I feel exactly the same way :(.

    Winter: I have to go check that out! I have a feeling that yes, it will be more “weird” than mine :)

    As soon as I realized what the video was I shut it off. I refuse to get that mess stuck in my head all day. If I burst out into song later while looking for a job I will hold you responsible!

  16. Karl Says:

    I am so not clicking on that video. I know what song it is because of your twats last night.

    For once I’m happy that work blocks all media like You Tube. I’m saved from your earworm…

    “Weird Hilly Thing #3 - I have to eat all things frozen (like ice cream and frozen yogurt) with a plastic spoon. In fact, I won’t eat those things with a metal spoon at all.” - this my friend is why we are BFFs. As for Twitter…I will stalk your twats, but I don’t plan to be all up in your twat anytime soon…unless you can convince me that it would be in my best interest.

    @ #2: How could you corrupt Vahid!!?!? He used to be such a nice boy. Now he’s a Twitter Zombie (Twombie?)!!

    P.S. Freakstick is my new favorite word.

  22. Turnbaby Says:

    i SOOOO do the singing thing. And I like to eat my frozen stuff with real spoons.

    You are very evil with the earworm–I too love to share and I think I’ll find a particularly good one for Friday.

    Care package going out to Britt’s fam–wish I was closer and not in the middle of just moving house–I’d go help.

    Re: #2. I just joined Twitter this weekend after seeing Whit do it (I didn’t want to be the LAST person on Earth without a Twitter account). I never saw the point in it.

    Ooooohh!!!!
