I don't like ears or being touched near them. Basically I don't like my face touched.

And on the toilet roll subject - It has to be OVER.
I think some time in my life I heard you use less if its over and ever since I have to have it over - and yes I am another one who will change it.

Bad grammar doesn't make my skin crawl, it just makes me want to fix it. And I often spend ages typing and retyping a word trying to work out whether I have spelt it right or not (yes spelt not spelled)...

That said I am a dreadful typist and make heaps of typo errors...

But I don't have a thing about toilet paper, in fact I don't think I even notice which way it hangs]]> Fri, 06 Oct 2006 15:00:03 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=76536&title=something-random-about-you#76536 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : ...no way..... ]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=76523&title=something-random-about-you#76523 Author: Roksana

The show you gals are talking about is called "The Amazing Human Body", and shows real human specimens - part of them like lungs, hearts etc, as well as whole muscle systems - and yes, foetuses as well. The bodies and / or parts are preserved using a process called 'plastination' and that's all I know really, except that all of the people and parts had given consent to be in this kind of display. I saw it when I was in Canada to visit my rellies for Christmas, it was on at the Ontario Science Centre - I personally found it really fascinating but then I am a self-admitted geek ]]> Sun, 01 Oct 2006 13:16:32 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=75391&title=something-random-about-you#75391 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : hahaha sonja, so not funny!! just...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=75374&title=something-random-about-you#75374 Author: ellabellame

Liz, that exhibition fascinated me - I so wanted to see it, and heard (wrongly) that it was at Te Papa.  So visiting Wellers at the time anyway, off we went to Te Papa, where I asked about the exhibition and the guy there looked at me like I was such a freak, before explaining that they have a policy about not displaying "human remains" in the museum (boy did I feel like a macarbe perve of some kind!).  Then I heard about the reproduction part of the display and was very glad I hadn't had the chance to see it.  ]]> Sun, 01 Oct 2006 09:43:53 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=75360&title=something-random-about-you#75360 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : hehe IM the same with the driving,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=75343&title=something-random-about-you#75343 Author: my2angels

i am so scared of birds too, cant handle them around me - i can take x to feed the ducks, but if there are too many i have to leave, and cant go anywhere near geese. last year i went to a place in chch that had a open bird aviary - and i completely freaked at the sign that said the keas like to sit on prams and stuff as you go through - i left x there and my sil had to bring the THREE kids through to the other side all by herself... and shamefully, i told her i could have more kids if i had to....... i sacrificed my girl!!! what a terrible mother!

and i cant stay in the house by myself at night, i have the worst overactie imagination of anyone i know, i see people and hear noises and scare myself silly. last time dh went out for the night i stayed in the living room till 1 am, before i got the nerve to go upstairs to our room - where i turned on the tv and watched for another hour, before going to sleep with the tv and lights on.
i have been known to sleep in the living room so i didnt have to go into a dark part of the house too.

ew spiders.. ihate them with a vengance too - like Robyn i have had a spider on the inside of the window incident - I dunno which was worse.. the fact that it had obviously started out on the side of my seat near my shoulder, and Paris saw it and told me.. or the fact that i had to keep calm as calm... that is until it began moving (which darling Paris also told me) and went real quick up its web into the corner of Paris's window .. at which point we realised it was a heck of alot bigger than we originally thought - mike had me and Paris screaming our heads off at that stage in the middle of peak morning traffic. poor guy. and don't even get me started on moving to this house.. am sure you all remember that ghastly spider we caught. Even though the house has been sprayed.. there are only a couple of windows in the house that i will open.. the others are way to close to the lush gardens for my liking.. OMG what if one came in? (am also a ceiling wall and floor checker too Robyn)

I'm a bit weird with the lateness thing. I had mum who was completely over the top about time keeping.. We used to turn up everywhere we went at least half an hour to an hour early.. hence now, I have that "i can't be late" idea in my head, but usually am pretty disorganised and end up at least 10 mins late.

I think my most loopy thing.. is that after i had Paris, i was a bit paranoid and depressed anyway, and when it was at it's worst.. I was scared of one of her soft toys.. dunno if you remember those monkey toys that made jabbering noises.. you squeeze their lips or push their tummies etc.. paris got one when she was 4 months (mum got it) i would go into the room to get her or check her at night and it was sitting on her bed.. and it had these black black scary eyes.. I ended up putting a blanket over it.. lol.. cos each time i went in i got all freaked out by the fact that it looked like it was watching me. I am officially insane i now think. lol]]> Fri, 29 Sep 2006 08:31:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74884&title=something-random-about-you#74884 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : This is the most entertaining...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74875&title=something-random-about-you#74875 Author: Andie

This is the most entertaining thread!!  Annie, great to meet another violinist-turned-drummer... woo-hoo!  I had to stop when I got sick and couldn't keep up anymore, which I'm bummed about, because I fully planned to drum right through this pregnancy so that baby could enjoy the fun as well. 

I don't freak about spiders... I love skinks, little frogs, wee lizards, even think snakes are so beautiful... but chickens?!?  Eeew - their beady eyes and yukky beaks and nasty icky skin under their feathers - and don't get me started on their revolting legs!  I also desperately hate clowns.  My ears are pointy at the top like a pixie, but I hate fairy stuff (my poor wee girl - hope she doesn't want lots of fairy and clown toys!).  The song 'bright eyes' from Watership Down will always have me in tears in seconds, and I can't watch animal programmes if one of the animals is sick or doing poorly.

Thats funny - I'm really relaxed about people being late to meet me but I am very very particular about being on time myself. MY DH is EXTREMELY anal about time keeping and gets very very anxious when people are late or if he is late. It's kinda cute but then can get frustrating when you are sitting in the movies 15 minutes before the bl00dy thing starts

I was a bit of a Bridezilla too Roksana - not mean or bitchy or anything like that. I was just too controlling over everything and found it difficult to let stuff go. I had to have every single detail planned out. I had my cousin act as a bit of a wedding co-ordinator on the day of the wedding and painstakingly put together a folder with diagrams and lists of everything!! Needless to say she appreciated it so it's not always a bad thing!!]]> Fri, 29 Sep 2006 07:27:28 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74869&title=something-random-about-you#74869 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : I love WHAM!!!!

I love WHAM!!!! I wanted to marry George Michael when I was a kid. My WHAM cd and tape are the most played of all my albums. And I proudly admit this to anyone hehe
My and my old work mates did the lake taupo bike race pre the boys which i loved and planned to do it after I had the boys but they were still in hospital.

I too get really stressed about lateness. I hate people being late (i find it disrepectful to be kept waiting) and i hate being late which I never am unless its something out of my control. Then that drives me absolutely barmy. And the funny thing is my best friend is always late,to the point where i give her an earlier time if we have to meet or go somewhere so I nkow she will be relatively close to being on time.

i am a trivia queen - i can store useless bits of information forever, and bring them out at quiz nites, games of buzz, and just whenever i need

i can read anything superfast and retain almost all the information - can just about repeat it word for word if i needed too.

i am fiercely competitive at games - to the point that dh and i dont play games together anymore, unless it is as a team. i just cant let it go, i have to win, grr!]]> Thu, 28 Sep 2006 21:51:36 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74847&title=something-random-about-you#74847 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : Nikki, I would be texting you...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74835&title=something-random-about-you#74835 Author: fattartsrock

Ah don't worry ladies.. I have a bit of OCD too.

I bite my nails like a maniac. Don't realise I am doing it and they are DISGUSTING! I go to sooo much effort to hide them from people that it's started freaking me out. I'm in the process of trying to stop but with school work stressing me out, I'm not doing too well.

And Annie, you'd hate me, I am ALWAYS late. But if I ever come to Blenners and we make a date, I swear that I'll make sure I'm early.

I'm sure we had a thread like this back a while ago???

Jess, we'll need a singstar competition I feel. I came 2nd in a kareoke competition once!!

I'm a list maker too and I hate being late as well. I'd much rather be early. And I did go through a time where I'd check the walls and bed for spiders, but then we moved house. Once, I accidentally lifted the toilet seat before going, and a spider flipped out from underneath it into the water so I can't go to the toilet without checking underneath the seat first

Its so interesting reading about other people's funny quirks, and recognising some of my own in there too!
I also have a phobia of birds, I hate them being anywhere near me and I can't stand seeing dead ones.
I'm even afraid of the ducks and chickens and fish that are served in chinese restaurants with their heads still on, eek!
I can't go to bed angry either Roksana. It really bugs Hubby cos I'll keep him up until any disagreement is resolved, hehe
I have an order that things must be hung in on the washing line and also for the dishwasher. If someone does it wrong I have to re-do it or it drives me bananas.
I accidentaly set fire to the park next to my high school one lunchtime and it burned a huge hole in the middle of the playing field

I did Guides thru to Chief Commissioners Guide but dropped out of Rangers before I finished my Queens Guide. Mum was a District Commissioner at one stage too...

I used to swim competitively as a teenager (Mum swam for Akld years ago so it's a family thing), won quite a few medals and trophies mainly for distance freestyle and butterfly. Then I got fat and lazy.

I am a bit of a loon too. I have a freaky bird obsession (which I'm sure I have mentioned before) - a total paranoid of birds flying into the house so I only open the windows a crack and won't leave doors open in case a bird flies in....

Oh and I am a total control freak as well - it's my way or the highway. And I talk non-stop, I think I probably even talk in my sleep. Willie has learnt to tune out.

Ok I can't see the pictures in 3D. My eyes are bunged so that I can't see them at all. It was really hard at school as thats when they were big and the teacher telling us we can't leave until we tell him what the picture is. I sat there telling him I can't see and will never see and he didn't believe me. My mum came in and told him I will never be able to tell him what it is as I have a condition in my eyes that I can't see them. He was so sorry that he made me sit there while all along I had told him I can't see them.]]> Thu, 28 Sep 2006 12:47:30 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74693&title=something-random-about-you#74693 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : Annie - You are not looney!!!

ok, I am an Anal control freak who loves organising, I am slightly obsessive compulsive with spelling and grammar, I have been known to correct (and offend) complete strangers, I just can't control it, bad grammar and spelling literally makes me feel dizzy and sick. I have borderline personality disorder, which probably explains this a little.... I am normal, though and control my condition myself, and haven't been on meds for about 4 years now. I had cognitive behaviour therapy, which helped the depression thing so well, that is why I am drug free. I was very worried about getting PND with JJ, but so far so good. Am a little worried I may be getting AND, so am seeing someone about that tomorrow.
On the positive side, I also played violin for years then switched to the drums. And, my dream job, for real, is still ROCKSTAR. I am a kareoke/singstar nerd, and go in kareoke competitions all the time, much to the embarrasment of DP, who thinks I suck, but I always get placed (although I have never won one yet - although no one ever beats me at singstar...)]]> Thu, 28 Sep 2006 11:21:35 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74679&title=something-random-about-you#74679 <![CDATA[Something random about you? : hehe im a list maker too but then...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=3884&PID=74663&title=something-random-about-you#74663 Author: my2angels
