Randomness

A little while ago the lovely Emerald tagged me for a well know meme that I may well have done before but I thought it would be interesting to do it again, without checking back first. See if I am at all capable of being random or if I'm thoroughly set in my ways. The challenge is to share seven random or weird facts.

1. 1. I like painted toenails but not fingernails (weird)
2. My lucky numbers are 1 and 7 (random)
3. I have a short attention span for hobbies, which leads to 'all the gear no idea' - letterpress anyone? That reminds me, I nearly went to a tatting course today. Lucky escape really. (random)
4. I'm still trying to fight my longing for flock wallpaper but it's becoming more difficult (weird)
5. I'm more cautious that I'd ideally wish to be (random)
6. The not being able to ride a bike thing is really starting to bug me (random) but I'm still unwilling to do anything to remedy it (weird)
7. Lately I've developed a thing for pictures/paintings/rubberstamps of deer (random and weird)

I am tagging some people I know, some I don't know. As always, won't be offended if you don't participate. Usual rules, link to your tagees, tell them they've been tagged,

Kathleen - v talented lady
Julie from Little Cotton Rabbits - she's the Typepad featured blog this week, hurrah!
Sweet Jessie - lovely photographs
Flissy - she hasn't blogged so recently but I think that's because she's busy making lovely things for her Blythe dolls
Abi from Make It Up - one of my favourite people, and uber talented Tree Fall - more lovely stuff
Jessica - always shares the best stuff on her blog

Hello! Yay for being tagged! I will do this in the next couple of days after a period of rumination. I know I haven't blogged as much, but I have felt kinda flat after the initial surge of excitement of writing-up, and lacking in inspiration regarding what to blog. This will give me a focus! With you on the flocked wallpaper; can't believe you can't ride a bike (but then, I can ride one with no hands, which is kinda weird for a girl to do); and also dislike nail varnish on fingers *and* toes :)

Thanks for tagging me. I am a very strange lady, indeed, but I don't know if I can come up with 7 *more* strange things about me that anyone would find of interest. So I think I'll just tell you:
1. I only like odd numbers, 7 and 19 being my favorites.
2. I, too, only like to have my toenails painted. I always choose the same color at the nail salon. It's called Pompeii Purple, but it's not purple at all actually.
3. I talk to myself all the time, usually with an English accent.
4. I don't like to travel, not even to really beautiful places.
5. My main area of study in college was criminology - I would love love love to be a detective!
6. I eat ice cream almost every single day.
7. I eat almost everything out of a mug instead of a bowl - including ice cream.

I am so with you on no.1, I really love painted toenails but find the feeling of nail varnish on my fingernails totally yuck.

woohoo! Thanks for tagging me! I will have to think of some random and or wierd facts. I do agree about the nail varnish - but I think it's just bitterness that my nails are quite roundy rather than long and I always have to keep em short for playing the piano. Therefore finger-nail-varnish is out of the question!
