Name one thing people would be surprised to know about you

It occurred to me last night that I post alot in Rants and Raves, and I think maybe sometimes I come off as really serious and uptight and too politically correct. Then I got to thinking, boy, I bet the people on the board would be surprised to know this fact or that fact about me.

So, I thought it would be fun to post something about ourselves that people here on the board would be surprised to know. It can be one thing or more than one thing.

I'll start:

I love celebrity gossip and am addicted to tabloids and gossip Websites.

I love pop culture and love learning about fads in history as well as current.

I will admit that I mostly go to art movies, but I equally love really dumb mainstream comedies like Talladega Nights, Scary Movie, and I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry.

I collect anything vintage, like cookbooks from the 50's, antique clothing, and black and white photos.

Now, how about YOU?

I have a secret addiction to "Ghost Hunters" and "Most Haunted". I watch entirely too much television because I am somewhat socially isolated (my best friend died suddenly of a perforated duodenum 12 months ago at age 44).

Me too!! I will watch anything to do with ghosts and hauntings.

I am a big fan of Friends too. That is one of the all time greatest shows, IMO.

Yay, another soap fan. As I admitted previously, I have been watching All My Children and One Life to Live for over 30 years.

color me stupid.

Yep, "Friends" is my all time favorite tv show ever. No matter how many times i watch it , it never gets old. As I said, I'm a little ashamed about the soap operas, but oh well.

I am not ashamed. They are a good escape for me. I can watch my soaps and not really think about things that bother me in my own life.

I listen to my daughter's Hannah Montana and High School Musical cds in my car all the time....when she is not in the car with me.

Ouch. That might be a tad embarassing, I think. :)

Kidding! You know I love you! :biggrin1: :)

I am not ashamed to admit to what music I listen to, but before we began using the Ipod in the car, I always used the CD player---it is a 6 disc changer. I picked 6 I like, and NEVER changed them!!! The only time they got changed was if DH and I went on a trip or something, he listens once and changes it---what a concept!!!

Yep, that's what I do, too. I carry just a few CDs in my car and usually listen to one for days on end before I get tired of it.

And look at me, criticizing someone else's music! I used to be a HUGE Nsync fan, to my humiliation. My brother won't let me live it down. I even owned the DVDs of their concerts. :nervous

Only when I realize the windows are down and I am singing at the top of my lungs.

What do you mean used to be? How can you stop loving Nsync?

Bye, bye, bye

LOL Lauren, at least YOU were in the right age group---I have children your age, and so I too can sing along with many boy bands---and others that are MUCH younger than what is considered my age of music!!!

Oh well--I also know every song Alice Cooper sings---thanks to my brother. Good thing Other people introduced me to different music I might still just have nothing but the Bee Gees playing!!! LMAO
