Proving Normalcy
I’ve been tagged by Diane to do the “6 things that are totally normal about me” meme (I’ll let you be the final judge of whether or not I’m really normal!):
- I don’t know any of my immediate neighbors.
- I’m overweight.
- I sing along to the music when I am driving the car.
- I love jewelry.
- I like to take long, hot bubble baths.
- I don’t follow the “wash instructions” on my clothing.

But I bet you can’t name a 7th thing…

This is the first one of these lists that I’ve seen where I can honestly say “ditto” to all of them! Yay for some semblance of normalcy!

That is me. Exactly. All of it, 1-6 - just cross out Kim and add Gina. Hoooly.

This isn’t fair. Because don’t abnormal people have normal stuff about them, too? I think a better meme would be to name 6 abnormal things about yourself and let us decide whether you’re normal or not.

Steven - I did have a hard time coming up with six. *sniff sniff* HEY! No comment on #4?
Hilly - Yay! That sure makes me feel better
Gina (Mannyed) - I was going to add “I love my cat as much as people love their children,” but didn’t know if THAT was normal. Ha ha
Maybe you would support me in that one too?
Nilsa - But then I would totally get the “abnormal” rating!

I was gonna say “proof positive that we’re related!” but I see from the comments EVERYONE does these things. Oh yeah, you did say *normal.*
P.S. I would totally be with you on the cat thing too, as you know!

If I don’t like jewelry am I abnormal? I NEVER follow wash instructions!!
June 29, 2008 @ 6:47 pm
me too, #’s 1-6.
I guess we are all surprisingly normal.
In theory.

Ha ha, I can relate on the loving the cats like your own children. Or talking to pets like they are people. I think that’s a normal among a specific subset (pet owners).

p.s. Thanks for playing along!

SJ - You can still say we’re related if you want. You are my fairy blogmother, afterall!
beth - Nah, you’re not abnormal for not liking jewelry. I used to not like it either, until Steven bought me a few nice pieces
Whiskeymarie - In theory is correct… is blogging even normal?
diane - I think people who have kids probably think we’re crazy for loving our pets so much… or maybe not
Sometimes I think I am a bit loopy for how much I want to talk about Data… er…

Great meme
We are all “normal” in our own special ways *wink*

that is a great idea for a meme but hard LOL
