THE RULES:  Each player of this game starts with 6 weird things about you.  People who get tagged need to write a blog post of their own 6 weird things as well as state the rule clearly.  In the end, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names.  Don't forget to leave a comment that says you are tagged in their comments and tell them to read your blog.

Six Weird Things About Me:

1.  I sing/talk to myself.  I don't just talk to myself.  I sing whatever I have to say to me, particularly when I'm giving myself instructions.  I also "scat" to entertain myself.  I sometimes sing myself to sleep.

2.  I carry on conversations in my dreams.  In that not-quite-asleep, not-quite-awake state,  I also "handle" things.  For instances, I feel my hands reaching out to pick up something, or smooth a piece of cloth.  All the while carrying on a conversation I remember when I'm fully awake.

3.  I am acrophobic, afraid of heights, but I took flying lessons, soloed in a small, single-engine plane.  Positively refused to take the parachute, crash-landing instruction.  No way am I going to jump out of an airplane.

4.  I read newspapers and magazines back to front.

5.   I'm a wordaholic.  I love words.  I get lost in a dictionary.  A half hour later, I've read about a dozen words, and maybe forgotten to look up the word that originally took me to the dictionary.  I savor words.  I roll them around in my mouth, feel the texture of the syllables.  I love words.

6.  I hate ketchup.  Do not ever offer me ketchup on anything.  Yuck.  (But I love tomato soup.)

And as a bonus: I never watch TV comedies.  They aren't funny.
