Six Weird Things About Me

1. I am obsessed with keeping the underside of my nails clean. I pick them clean with anything I can find, but mostly I clean them with my teeth. I have a gap in the middle of my bottom teeth and it is just perfect for scraping my teeth clean. Sadly, I usually end up scraping off half my nail too, making my nails brittle and thin. And, when camping, I could care less. It's just when I'm not camping they have to be clean.

2. I have one eyebrow hair that would, if I let it, grow up to two inches long. I know this because it often gets that long before I find it. I have no idea how it hides, or if suddenly grows overnight or what. Even when I'm diligent about seeking it out, it often gets to be an inch long before I find it.

3. I have never, not once, trimmed/shaved/waxed my pubes. EVER. It' s not that I don't want to (except waxing--can't have that done. I swell up something awful whenever I wax my eyebrows, I can't imagine what it would do down there). I might be more interested in trimming down there if I could actually see it; thanks to my stupid motherfucking pannis (no, that's not mine in the photo, I wish mine were that small). I have plans (once I return to my normal weight after the baby) to get my pannis removed, and then perhaps burn it. Oh, and Charlie seems to have no preferences as far as pubic hair goes.

4. I like porn. Yep, really. And not that "erotica" crap. I like hardcore.

5.  I have been an insomniac since I was little girl. When I was three or four years old, I would crawl naked out my bedroom window and go play in my front yard in the middle of the night (we lived in a ranch-style house in New Mexico back then) for hours until I finally got sleepy. My mother never knew. Once I got older, I'd get up and play with my hair for hours on end, trying out a million bizarre hairstyles until I had to go to school.

6.  This isn't really weird unless you aren't an addict, but it's the only other thing I can think of. When I got the surgery that terminated my pregnancy with the boys, I was given an intravenous shot of Fentanyl. Even as I lay there sobbing, I remember pausing a moment and thinking, "Damn, that was good." Recently in my city there was a rash of heroin-related overdoses; it turns out that the heroin was laced with Fentanyl. When I heard that--ex junkie that I am--I actually drooled involuntarily.

So there you go! Feel free to provide your own weirdness in the comments or consider yourself tagged and put it on your blog...

my husband has one of those eyebrow hairs (inherited from his mother). about every two months i have to attack him with the tweezers.

[Monique]

I, too, have the one weird two-inch-long eyebrow hair that hides. Weird, huh? Every time I see it, it's like, how does this happen?! How do you get so long?!

And as for the Fentanyl... Opiates/opioids will do that to you. It's good shit; your brain has receptors specifically designed for them. I still have stashes of old Vicodin (from past surgeries or dental appointments) for just in case I want to feel that again. I'll go for months without having one, and then I'll have half of one if I've got nothing better to do.

Not that I'm an addict or anything...

[Monique]

Oh, I should add, though, that since getting pregnant I haven't had any.

Just in case you were wondering...

[victoria]

How did the pruning go?

[Moxie]

Victoria just made me spit out my water.

[Lala]

i was unprepared for that photo. i thought maybe it was greek dish.
i love porn too but i wish more women had orgasms.

[ccw]

I love your pic, you look radiant!

Love this meme. I have had so much fun reading everyone's answers.

I have the nail obsession. I keep clippers all over the house, but I will use just about anything if I see dirt.

I was shaved before this pregnancy. Now, I cannot see my genital area so it is natural. I looked in the mirror and I swear it was like an Ewok looking back. I know that is my hair, but I had become accustomed to it being very trimmed.

Re: #2

I have a hair that grows out of my forehead that would grow to be as long as the rest of my normal head hair if I let it. It's not as thick as an eyebrow hair, so it's not really noticable and I usually discover it when it's about 3 inches long.

[Lenore]

Great new picture. And the eyebrow doesn't show... :)
I'm thinking about getting a LAP band for my pannis. Seems reasonable, and it might come with some Fentanyl.

[RainbowW]

Charlie may not have a preference, but I sure do. Wax and shave bad. Can we have a picture?

[christina]

I so know what you mean about #6. I was given percocet after delivering #2 and all I could think about was when I could take it. Then, when I did take it, it wasn't as good as I thought it would be. Seems the RX drugs aren't as cool when really needed...LOL.

[victoria]

Hey, when you say you like porn, are you talking about videos?

I thought all women were hardwired to respond primarily to written narrative porn. I always thought, "Men are all about what things look like, women are all about how things feel on the inside, so images work for men and descriptions work for women." Am I just totally wrong about this?

[Dawn]

I love this meme, I have seen it going around and have also been taggedv with it but I havn't gotten around to doing it yet. (I like porn too!) :o)

Stacy Quarty- I have a hair that grows out of my forehead too. lol... Just one and it is very blond and very fine. I also usually notice it once it gets about 3 inches long. Strange.

[Chas]

Wow, that's some picture; I wasn't ready for that...though I should have known something was coming considering it keeps you from seeing your pubes.

[Amy]

I have a chin hair that I seem to constantly pluck but it keeps growing back.

Your #5 scared the bejesus out of me! A naked 3-5 year old outside at night alone? Hello pedophiles! Glad you were OK.

I have never ever had a trim or wax or shave on my pubes either and my husband doesn't have a preference.

Thanks for sharing.

[CityMama]

cheek hair here (wtf?) i always know it's time to pluck it when my husband and i are having a conversation and suddenly he starts looking at me cross-eyed.

[Amanda]

I'm with you on #3 - being able to see myself was totally unexpected perk of losing weight. Now that I'm pregnant, though, I make my husband give me trims. I can't WAIT to get this stupid pannis removed, stinky belly button and all.

I'm also with you on #4 and none of that "made for women" crap either.

[cathy]

i am a lurker, but decider to come out and play today. about the pubes. in my mid forties i began to notice mine were "getting further apart" - i thought it was because i was getting fatter. then i had to stay with my 80 y/o mother in the hospital. one night she threw her gown off and she didn't have a single pube to her name and i figured it out! i'm 55 now and mine now looks like a very bad comb over. i ask my aunt some time later why they didn't tell us this would happen? her answer, "nobody told us!"

[Carrie Jo]

You are such a cool woman! I like porn too, the hardcore kind. In fact my newest favorite thing to do is look at whatever porn my husband had been looking at earlier in the temporary internet file folder. He looks at some kinky shit too, and I love it.

[maia]

Just hit the big 40 and can attest to the comment above. I did a big shave job a few months ago, decided the ingrown hairs were not a good look for me and let it grow in. Except it hasn't really. I am balding in my nether regions, who would have known?!

My husband is getting a little lighter on top but is fighting it every step of the way. He this lone hair coming out of his forhead about an inch and a half lower than his new hairline. I always try to pull it out but he swears the hairs 'buddies' will soon join the lone hair again, sigh. I guess I am going to have to explain the balding thing again; that the hairs recede. They do not recede and then come back!

Great me-me Cecily!

[Whitney]

Sadly my weirdest habit is ironing my dish towels.....I like linen ones and they wrinkle!! It's like a fix for me to iron my towels. I know, I am a dork!

I do obsessively shave my "area", otherwise it would come all the way up and join in with my underarm hair! TMI?? I made the hubby do the upkeep when I was too pregnant to see it any longer :)

[Sheri]

Loved this MeMe! And the comments are just as good. I don't shave or wax but just an occasional trim is ok. The ingrown hairs and the troubles they bring are not worth it. I wouldn't wish an ingrown hair down there on my worst enemy. ouch and double ouch

I love the new picture! And the brow hair doesn't even show. I've got a chin hair AND a cheek hair that does some freaky shit and grow overnight.

[Heatherg]

I use the hubby's mustache clippers to keep me-self maicured. If i am not manicured, i get itchy.

I porn............. DVD's - so i can click "next" if i dont like the people.

Never been into drugs, hate feeling like i am not in control. Had something (?) when i had my gall bladder out, but not sure what it was. I was not in control. Didnt like.

Oh and i'm hungarian, so i have that chin hair that makes me sneak the hubby's razor and take care of it, with no one the wiser! lol

[Diana]

Love the new pic. I have a cheek hair that comes in every couple of months. Nobody ever notices it, but I look for the sucker so I can get rid of the evidence.

[Jennifer]

I too like porn. I'm not big on shaving though. I pretty much let everything grow.
