1. I have a shameless love of free stuff- I will take anything if it is for free- I mean anything. And I have the garish pink lipgloss, blue mascara, green eyeliner, crappy hair products, hotel slippers, little bottles of shampoo, conditioner and shower gel, logo t-shirts and caps and oversized sunglasses to prove it. I have never worn or used any of them- but who cares- they were FREE!!!
2. I hate massages. Hate, hate, hate, hate, hate them. I can't bear for anyone to touch my back, my neck or my feet. It sends a chill up my spine and makes me cringe.
3. I don't do pink. Ever. OK, maybe once or twice- but I was forced to!
4. Unlike Mumbo- I am addicted to horror movies. I love them. I'm one of those losers who goes to the cinema by myself. It's not because I don't have friends- it's just that they would all prefer to see some shmaltzy boo hoo pass the tissues sooky sooky la la romantic comedy (bunch of girlies!)
5. I am Australia's worst road rager. Every morning my work colleagues are subjected to a vitriolic diatribe about how bad EVERY BODY ELSE drives. I have been known to follow people who did not do the 'Thankyou wave' when I have let them in (don't laugh- the thank you wave is right up there in terms of driver etiquette).
6. On more than one occassion a man has called me intimidating. Imagine! Me? Intimidating! Bloody little wussy sooky sooky la la scaredy cats pee in your pants want my mama run like a girlie girl got no balls losers!
7. I have an amaaaaazing propensity to attract freaks, stalkers and weirdos- especially on public transport and at conferences. One guy professed his love for me after 5 minutes of knowing me (yeah- I'm going to run off and marry you because you googled me- STALKER), another I sat next to on a plane tried to invite me to a mass orgy (yeah, I'm going to join you and your fat n' over 40 friends in black leather masks and fluro pink g-strings for some 'real fun'- WEIRDO), when I was 8 months pregnant, I guy I sat next to on a bus begged me to allow him to come to the birth (yeah, I want YOU there while I'm lying there in agony with my legs up in stirrups- FREAK) Life is just one big adventure!
8. I love roller coasters and any kind of ride that takes you to the edge of bringing up your breakfast. But I'm afraid to get on escalators- in case I fall and hurt myself.
9. I love birds- they are my favourite animals. But I'm scared of chickens (chickens are not birds- they don't fly- the evil little buggers!)
and finally....
10. I don't look like anyone- and, to be honest, I feel like I'm missing out on something! Occasionally I've been told that I look like Halle Berry and at other times like Victoria Beckham (eww!!) in a photo but nobody ever says "wow you look just like...". My husband looks like Nicholas Cage and always gets told that- Not fair, I want to be told too!
I'm tagging Raccooooooon, Queen and Path 2 Hope. And I want Howie and Egypeter to tell us all some thing we don't know about them- and it better be good, juicy stuff that we can get our teeth into!

LOL :)
Tus:
5) if you ever stop by Israel, don't drive. Just don't. Israeli drivers are an order of magnitude worse (and ruder) than Aussie ones. You'll have a heart attack :)
6) ROFLMAO :)
7) Fat over-40 guys in leather masks and fluorescent pink G-stings are sexxxy! Especialy if they have hairy, sweaty beer bellies ;)
10) Why not start random conversations with people by stating that you look like Cleopatra? (do you have a big nose?):)
LOL!! TUS, someday I would love to hear your speak...what a killer-combo accent. I must say, a Masriyya/Aussie gal could be formidable!
I too, hate massages and pink, and love free stuff and roller coasters. Don't do horror. For what it's worth, people tell em all the time I look like Meryl Streep - but NOT like in The Devil Wears Prada. If you are ever curious, I answered this tag on my blog :).
Appreciated your comment on SMs thread on the hymen fatwa. Sounds like another post in the making.
Howie...maybe you need to start blogging!
Peter- re 4 Loved the Saw Trilogy but thought 3 was a bit of a let down after hearing reports of people passing out and stuff- bunch of wussies!
And- yes agreed- you do look like Pete Samprass.
Howie- I loved your post! You've have a rich life. I do numbers 6 and 8 too- my family think I'm asking for trouble- they only think that because they are ignorant.
Racoon- yes i do have a big nose actually- at least I think I do- actually, come to think of it- I am often compared to Nefertitti (I think I blogged about it before)
Kinzi- what's your blog address please?
Finally someone else who hates massages! This could turn into an emotional moment for me. You have no idea how many times I've been called strange for hating the blasted thing..
Lol, I'm starting to think that attracting weirdos is an Aries thing. But the the guy you met while pregnant is classic!
TUS, sorry, I thought it showed when I commented all this time. When I finally learn to link, I will definitely be putting you on the roll!

loooool,woman, I love your blog:)
You & Hopechild are missing out on the beauty of massages.I looooove going to spa(s)& being pampered. Moroccan bath(s)(I know this will kill you both) & massages are my fave:)
Horror movies were my thing till I watched Sarah Michelle Gellar's " The Grudge" & saw that freak ghost kid next to my bed at night! nOw, I'd rather go to chick flicks & tear-inducing movies:)
Interesting post:)
Hello TUS, it's been a while! =)
Kinzi, I'm telling you her accent is uniquely hilarious. She speaks Arabic with an Australian accent!
Path2Hope, count me in the non-massage club. That makes 3 of us.
Halalhippie, thank you for joining the the non-massage club:)
oops! sorry, Kinzi..make that 4 and counting :-)
