Random me

A while ago some lovely blogger tagged me to write some random things about myself (if it was you, please let me know).
So, here goes...

1. I used to name all my handbags and would introduce them to people as if they were my friends.
2. Once I ordered a double Malibu & coke in Cape Cod and the bartender told me doubles were illegal in the state of Massachusetts, but singles ok (i still wander if thats true?)
3. My hair is a mess today. Its curly wavy fluffiness.
4. Im a bit obsessive about zip lock bags (NOT eco-chic, i know)
5. Last night I dreamt I got 3 New Moon dvds, even before the movie came out in cinemas (twerd? maybe). *laughs*
6. I had a goldfish that tried to commit suicide (true story).
7. I used to try wear all my bangles and rings at the same time. Now I have way too much jewellery to even attempt that.
8. My gran always used to tell me I was "chocolate box" pretty - I still have no idea what exactly she meant by that.

I went to work on Monday thinking my bosses husband had died....I have a very vivid dream and thought it was real (I was so glad to just find out it was just a bad dream)

Ches said...

I love that you named your handbags! I collect lizards (not live ones - wire one, metal ones and sculpted ones) and I used to name them all. I also name my cars. The current one is Ella (after Ella Fitzgerald. My car is a Honda Jazz and Ella was a jazz legend).

I hate being chased by supermarket trolley trains. You know, when the guys who collect them up from the car park chase you all the way through the mall to get them back to the supermarket. How random is that!

I enjoy my stress... weirdly it reminds me that I am working towards a dream. :D

dorothy said...

chocolate box pretty means that you're classically pretty in the disney-style, big eyes, bow-shaped mouth, cute button nose, rosy-cheek way.

Ha. Introducing handbags by name is hilarious. If some woman did that here in DC, I'd probably say, "you're crazy... can I get ya a drink?"

at the beginning of the year i got a new bag and I called it Cullen. seriously. I put it on my facebook page and everything. I'm so glad I'm not alone!

Slyde said...

Helen said...

i tend to dream about people I don't know and then wake up angry with them, but I can never figure out if it was a dream or real...

And I've never names a handbag, but it sounds like fun! I will name my next one!

Jeanette said...

I agree with Dorothy re choccie box pretty :)
LOL re the handbags!

A Mom on Spin said...

Tell us. . . what were their names?

Meandering Mel said...

You're number 1 made me laugh out loud. :) AWESOME!

Random thing about me?

I can't type correctly. But, I've made up for it, and can still type rather fast. ( I only use 9 of my 10 fingers. I never use my right ring finger. Never.)

:) You're so awesome!

Hahahaha, I also had a suicidal goldfish, kept jumping out its bowl!!! Crazy I tell you!!!

walkingonsunshine18 said...

Okay I love the fact that you named your handbags.... you're too cute! :)

Laura said...

No way! I had goldfish that DID commit suicide!

They jumped out the bowl! Both of them! Think it was some sort of couple suicide pact thing!

Maryx said...

I love your randomness!
A suicidal fish? Wow! Do tell?!

My randomness for today - Sitting in a kiddies blow-up pool really DOES cool you off. A glass or two of wine and good friends help a lot. =D
