Post something eccentric you've done

Sweet, with the ketchup and cola and everything in it. Disgustingly sweet. Just disgusting, really. I had to do it though. Was burning with curiosity.

I long ago left behind my hangups about mixing socks up. I just have a pile of single socks and pick out two at a time, i dont care about the colours .


Is that eccentric though? I just think it makes sense.

When a teenager, I would run the garbage out to the alley, scantily clothed, below zero fahrenheit.

I saved a spider smaller than a piece of salt and put it in a plant so it wouldn't get stepped on. I tell everyone who visits that they're not allowed to kill spiders, moths, or other bugs; I try to catch them before the cats eat them, and usually put them outside. However, I do squish scorpions that come into the house, but I feel guilty about it.

Getting excited over seeing and buying a kid's toy at my age, I guess.

Making comments to myself in public, like when I'm shopping.

Reading books out loud when no one is around. My Dr. Seuss Books pretty well HAVE to be read out loud to be truly enjoyed.

Reading my words out loud as I type this...

My apartment looks almost like a miniature Disneyland, dolls and plushies and pictures of cartoon characters everywhere.

I wore my astronaut costume to school every day when I was six...

I guess this is pretty eccentric, maybe even really weird, but a few days ago I googled and looked at warning signs and labels. I find them both creepy and fascinating for some reason. Like warning labels put on barrels of dangerous things like cyanide and even uranium, and street signs that warn drivers of animals and pedestrians. I like crossing signs where animals and people look realistic instead of generic stick figures. Like the deer crossing signs in Russia are just plain weird-looking!

I saw some pretty strange looking signs on Wikipedia, like one that shows two hands sticking out of a liquid substance. It was to warn people that there was quicksand.

I remember my mum had a ceramic frog in the bathroom and when I had a bath I used to cover it over with a hand towel I didn't want it gawking at me while I was having a bath.

This past Friday I went to the Farmer's Exhibition with my parents to see the animals and stuff, and I won a stuffed toy Pac-Man and Pinky the ghost by playing a carnival game where you throw darts to pop balloons. Each balloon had different points, and the more pints you got the bigger the prize you could get, and you were allowed to add up points so I kept playing until I had enough to get both Pinky and Pac-Man. It must have cost over 40$ for the both of them, but it was worth it!

I would have liked to have gotten the other three ghosts as well, but that would have cost a fortune. There was only one Pac-Man left. I was as excited as a little kid when I got them.
