quirky is the new sexy..

did you know that I am probably one of the most uncoordinated people you will ever meet in your life? Once I fell (trying to do a summer sault) in a jumping castle and had to be rescued by a bunch of 3 year olds. ( who btw still talk about this and it has been almost 7 years) Once krista and I tried to used school glue (and then used pink duck tape) a mirror on moms car. it didnt work. I cant ride my little brother's 3 wheeled bike for me than a minute w/o falling off literally. Have i told you I cant tie my shoes or snap my fingers? lol.. I am obsessed with wonderwoman (really all super heros ) and hanson. I love lemons.. think pickles and cinnamon rolls are the best combo.I am known for asking people random questions at very strange times. I am a national scrabble champion who snorts when she laughs, has knocked more drinks off the table then I can count who listens to talk radio and loves to dance and sing opera around with my lil brother around the house. The list could go on and on and on. here is what I am getting at.. the other night in between catching up with some of my favorite friends new and old I got visit from another friend. I was doing my usual dancing around the house, contemplating cleaning my room (which never happened) and giggling about my superhero alter ego, when he sits on my bed looks at me and says.. "you are very strange." Now i was too happy to be irritated with him, but i did look at him with bewilderment. My response: "you are right I am strange. I am quirky, weird, hyper, eclectic, eccentric or how ever you want to see it but guess what? it wont be changing anytime soon." he looked and just shook his head. later he sent me a text and said i made him smile and he apologized. But seriously women in particular think they have to look a certain way, or behave a certain way. why? I have never been one to conform and I couldnt be happier about it. Being a step ford wife acting robotic in nature is not attractive. I refuse to feel bad about who I am and things I enjoy about my life. quirky is sexy. You being you is sexy. I think we need all celebrate our differences and uniqueness rather than pretending it doesnt exist. Bottom line this is me.. if you dont like it.. well plug your ears and cover your eyes cause Im still going to be singing and dancing.
