1. I obsess about license plates. If they are personalized and hard to figure out I obsess over them until I can figure it out. Oh, and the standard issue license plates....I obsess about those too...I wish I could figure out what the number/letter sequencing is. If you know, please don't tell me...you'll spoil the fun.
2. My life-long question that I can't wait to ask God: "Did Adam and Eve have belly buttons?" Really, it's a valid question and oh so fascinating.
3. When I was young I had an imaginary motor-cycle. I've tried to pass along this great toy of mine to my kids but they just look at me like I'm crazy when I'm running around the house making loud sort of brum brum sounds.
4. In high school my dream car was a purple carmengia with large white polka-dots and my favorite color was bright orange.
5. This one's for Addie...I have a frozen stapes. hehehehehe.

I rarely(...or have I ever?) mention our dog, Heidi. She's a one-year old boxer. We adopted her when she was six months and we suspect she might have been abused or heavily reprimanded as a young pup. That said...you would think I would go easy on her but, don't forget whose typing here.

1. Heidi does not like men. It took her 3 weeks to get used to my husband when we first got her. When a man does come to our home we have to put Heidi in the back yard and the man then has a series of "rules" to follow. 1) He must sit down 2) He may not wear a hat 3) He must not make any direct eye contact or attempt any type of communication with the dog 4) If at all possible, he must shave all facial hair. Okay, so we don't "force" the 4th but we do highly recommend it. heh.
2. Heidi freaks out if you ask her in a high-pitched froggy voice, "Can I have a cup of sugar?" Don't ask how we found this out.
3. Heidi's favorite toy is her food. She'll take one little chunk from her bowl and toss it around the entire house flipping it around and pawing at it.
4. My dog has seasonal allergies. What's up with that??? Not only to I have to buy antihistamines for my daughter and myself...I have to freakin' buy them for my dog!
5. Heidi likes to chew on wood. Whether its a fallen branch from the tree outside or a wooden toy from my kids' collection...it's just plain yummy to her.

So, there ya have it! Consider yourself tagged. And if you play along, leave a comment and let me know!

• Hmm. Heidi and I share something in common. I freak out when you ask me in a high pitched voice if you "can have a cup of sugar." Wanna know how I know that?!
  
  Frozen stapes, you say??? ;-)

• I obsess about license plates too. Then I try to figure how I could make a meaningful license plate without looking like it . . .
  Lots o'fun there.

• There's probably medication you could take for that license plate thing. And I do hope you have that frozen stapes very carefully packaged and clearly labeled because it would be beyond disgusting if anyone found THAT in their chili.
  
  Thanks a lot for bringing up that whole belly button thing. That drives me crazy.
  
  Your dog sounds perfectly normal to me. Aren't all dogs like this? Mine sure is, especially the "one piece of food at a time thing."

• Oh, I finally got to your blog... I don't know what I did, but blogger was not letting me in!!!
  
  I do the same with the license plates. Not only do I have to figure it out, I have to do it before anyone else in the car!
  
  I don't think you're too weird. "Just right" weird by the looks of this list. When we go for coffee eventually, we'll see if you can qualify for the "okay, that's just sick and wrong" weird.
  
  I'm hoping you don't ever reach that level...
