OME! That is soooo me!! I can kill a bug, but DO NOT ask me to pick it up!! I once killed a freakin HUGE spider with three of my high school yearbooks (those suckers weigh, like, 5 pounds each, at least!) and I left them in the middle of my bedroom floor for four days before my mom finally caved and picked up the dead spider. She hates clutter and things like that laying in the middle of the floor, and it didn't bother me so I knew she would cave eventually and pick it up... lol... Then by the time she did pick it up it was tiny because it had dried up, and I got made fun of for using three yearbooks to kill a tiny spider!! Nobody would believe me that it was really a huge spider to begin with... I guess that is what I get for not picking up the darn thing to begin with...heartofmp* wrote:-I am majorly afraid of bugs or anything creepy-crawly, and the only way i can kill them is if I have a shoe. I smack them to death (and then some) and I refuse to pick up the dead bug--I leave the shoe on top of the bug until someone else comes by and cleans it up.
More wierd secrets:
- I have conversations with my animals when no one else is around.
- I have a rather large cross collection even though I am not religious, because I once bought a really pretty metal cross just because I liked it and then people started buying them for me and giving them to me as presents... so now I have a big collection. I still get at least one for my birthday and Christmas every year...
- People don't know I am not a religious person because most of my family and friends are very religious and I don't feel I can share my feelings with them without being judged... severely. So I just smile and nod when anything religious is mentioned...
- Paul O'Neill, the creator of Trans-Siberian Orchestra, asked me to send him a demo tape (singing) four years ago because I wrote him several stalker-ish letters saying how much I wished I could sing with them, and I have never sent one in because I am really not that good of a singer. I regret it every time I look at the platinum record for Christmas Eve and Other Stories he sent me as a gift.
