6 Quirky Things About Myself

I have been tagged by Julie, on her blog. Now I have to write up 6 Quirky Things about myself. I bet I could come up with a whole lot more than that since I'm a quirky person, but here's the ones that come to mind right now.

1. I lost my last baby tooth when I was 15 yrs. old. I could have pulled it at 14, but I refrained so I could lose it at "15". Yes, I was quite late in the "teeth" department. My top wisdom teeth came in when I was 26 and pregnant. My bottom wisdom teeth came in when I was 28 and pregnant. My oldest son has followed suit in being late getting his teeth. His first tooth came when he was 15 months old. He didn't finish getting his 2 yr. molars until almost 3 1/2 yrs. old.

2. I have never knowingly eaten a bite of meat in my whole life. This means none of the following: fish, chicken, or even seafood. Two times I almost ate meat on accident: Taco Bell gave me a beef burrito when I had ordered a bean burrito; I took some crab meat dip once which I thought was pimento cheese spread. It felt funny in my mouth so I quickly spit it out before swallowing.

3. I turned my baby in utero by myself at home one morning at 34 wks. along. She had been in a breech position for at least 3 weeks, and I was desperately wanting to proceed with our plans for a home birth. Now I'll state the obvious: I wasn't really alone during all that. God's angels were holding my hands the whole time. B went on to be born at home in our bathtub right on schedule: her due date of July 4th.

4. I like potent flavors. By that, I mean, if I am eating lemon cookies, they better taste like lemon. Chocolate mint better have a minty zing to it. When I am eating flavored chips, you guessed it! The more flavor powder on a chip the better. So.....when eating the chips, I save the most flavorful-looking chips for the end. That's also why I like that cinnamon tea so much, because it's so "cinnamonny"!! (See prior post.)

5. I have never been pulled over by a cop for any reason while I was driving. Knock on wood. That's not to say I didn't deserve to be a few times, but it hasn't happened yet.

6. I have insanely early memories of my life. Little tidbits that I remember date back to around the time I was 1 1/2 yrs. old. I am not kidding. It's weird, no it's quirky, I know!

There! I'm all done. And if you have a blog, and you are reading this, you better figure out 6 quirky things about yourself too! (You know who you are.....) Post here in the comments that you've been tagged as well.
