Otherwise known as, I thought of more bizarre things you might want to know about me after I made that last post. Also known as, 5+5+5=I can’t do math.
11) I have a frighteningly accurate and long memory. Arch Support and Mr. Shoe call it Stalker Memory. I prefer to think of it as more elephantine. In any case, it includes random, useless details like the name of the company that one of my best friends in elementary school’s father worked for. She was terrified surprised I remembered this when we reconnected on Facebook recently. I will admit that having a child has damaged my memory to some degree; however, it’s still a little unreal the sheer volume of useless information I hold onto.
12) I can pinch things and pick things up with my toes. They spread unusually far apart and are strangely flexible. Mr. Shoe is still a little freaked out by this trait as I often employ it to pinch the backs of his legs when he’s not paying attention.
13) I really like to play Monopoly and I can NEVER find anyone who wants to play with me. In fact, it’s been so long since the last time I played, that if I played it again, I might actually discover that I hate it now, but it’s impossible to tell for sure since I’m surrounded by giant party-poopers.
14) I get wanderlust and want to move every 2-3 years since that was about how often we moved into a new apartment when I was a kid. Poor Mr. Shoe just gets settled in one place before I’m looking at real estate listings for the next place. In fact, it’s actually about time for me to start perusing once again.
15) I get hungry at the same time every night, 10 p.m., regardless of what time we had dinner. I’m almost always hungry for something savory NOT sweet (unlike Mr. Shoe who adores his sweets), and usually I’m hungry for protein, typically chicken. I’d sooner go for some leftover baked chicken than I would for just about anything else in the house. So in summary, I get hungry at 10 every night usually for chicken. Sheesh, when I say it like that, it sounds downright weird.
Oh, and let’s face it. There’s no way I’m often going to get these things published before midnight. But either way, I’m pretty excited about basically having posted 9 days in a row, even if it’s not always the most exciting material out there.

I love Monopoly, too.
And I also remember small details – I freaked out more than one class member at BOTH of my 20 year reunions this summer.

I like Monopoly. Just can’t find anyone that wants to play a full game.
Plus I am annoyed at the new version that uses a debit card instead of cash. Keeping the banker honest is part of the fun!

Hey! I like Monopoly. And I live with someone who doesn’t really like games, period, so I don’t get to play games with a real live person ever anymore.

I’ll add to the resounding choruses of “I LOVE MONOPOLY” too! We’re a huge game household over here. Anytime you’re in Nashville, we’ll have game night! :)
