Tagged by a Cat and a Guinness Drinker

Le Chat Qui a Peur wants to know about my weirdnesses. I did this a while ago and the first round can be seen here. But in the interest of being a good sport let me think of some more lime weirdness.

1. Neither of my pinky toes has a full toenail. They are just odd little bumps that grow where a toenail should be.

2. I refuse to buy or wear make-up but I have 4 different moisturizers depending on which body part I am slathering (I slather head to toe after every shower). My face is oily but everywhere else I have very dry skin. In a pinch or when I am travelling I only use two.

3. I'm allergic to bananas and kiwi, and have never heard of anyone else who is allergic to either of those things.

4. I'm right-handed but there are some things I have always done left-handed and it's driving me a bit nuts not being able to do them properly right now.

5. I cannot eat invertebrates, except crab. The whole idea just creeps me out.

Cass Elliot was truly something special. If you get a chance, read John Phillip's autobiography. It's a great book and has a few nice Cass stories in it.

I have to agree, I love when you do meme's. You always have fun and creative answers.

I had mind altering sex once. I was high and could swear there were garden gnomes on the ceiling. Does that count???
