hahahahah i never thought about that...i was such a loser seriously!

For ex: One day my parents were running to the store and left us kids home (i was in middle school) my mom asked me to keep an eye on the chicken in the oven and occasionally baste it....

i went in my room and was practicing head stands...slipped and fell and got a rug burn on my head...

BUT....i told my fam that i didn't realize you can pull the racks out of the oven and when i was trying to baste the chicken i put my head close to the oven to see better....so they all thought i burnt my head in the oven!

To this day they will not let me near the oven!!!! Now i try telling them that i lied and they don't believe me...hahahah

WELL the parentals are letting us make an apt upstairs where we are living for a few years. . . .sooo i mean if my gas tank is magically filled. . . wink wink . . .

HA HA actually this is something FH will NOT tolerate - he has told me that once we are married i have to make my own lunches AND get my own gas. . . .

it's okay though i know that i have milked this for WAY TOO LONG!

WOW! Me too! And my FH thinks I'm a total freak. But if I'm drifting off, and he's still watching tv, I have to make him PROMISE not to fall asleep with it on, because if he does I'll wake up in a panic about an hour later. He always promises, and then always falls asleep with it on anyway. Jerk! So really, he's not allowed to do it anymore. I thought I was the only weirdo in the world that this happens to, but if I wake up in the middle of the night in a dark room with the tv on, I get so freaked out that my heart beats so fast and I can't fall back to sleep for a bit.

Hahahha - I know. It just creeps me out. Same with any kind of salad dressing that I can't see through (ranch, blue cheese, etc.)

I'm crazy, I know!

Re: Spinoff from 06 board ~~List Five Things that we don't know about you

Dava and Bonnie -

Did you guys watch Poltergeist when you were really young and are scarred forever by the TV???

DavaDay Posted: Oct 15, 2006 10:51 PM

Re: Spinoff from 06 board ~~List Five Things that we don't know about you

Heehee, probably. And just when I got over the 'Poltergeist' thing, along comes 'The Ring'...

beachbum05 Posted: Oct 16, 2006 12:53 AM

Re: Spinoff from 06 board ~~List Five Things that we don't know about you

hahahahha! Ooh the ring freaks me out!!!

For me, it's a sound thing. You know sometimes when the tv's on, but maybe the cable isn't on? And you have that 'invisible noise?' It's just a high pitched humming...? Well, if I wake up to that - I HATE it.

me = wacko
fact

Re: Spinoff from 06 board ~~List Five Things that we don't know about you

I cant sleep with the TV on but FH cant sleep with it OFF - so i have to put it on a 'safe' channel like the Food network - and then i always check to make sure there is nothing scary until the time I wake up

We dont leave the food network on anymore though bc every morning we would wake up to an infomercial about this medicine to 'clean out your system' LOL
