tagged, *sigh*, again! such unimportant calamitous trivia

I am going to attempt to do a meme because Karen, whom I adore, has tagged me and I don't want to disappoint her.
I am not as confident that it will be funny or interesting but it is 6 Unimportant Things About ME.
As if there were anything that is Important.
Really.

I am, believe it or not, quite shy, until I get to know you.
 Stop laughing.
Really, I am shy!
I do well in crowds when I put on my bluff and bluster but really, the true Kim is not as loud or over the top.
 She is a very quiet little girl who sits in the back of the room and dreads being called upon because she just might not have the right answer.
 I have been wearing glasses since the 3rd grade when my math teacher Mrs Mann moved me to the front row, for squinting and declared me blind as a bat and dumb as dirt all in the same sentence.

What can I say?
I became class clown and entertained the other kids by dancing on tables so they wouldn't make fun of my skinny legs, braces and now, glasses! 4 eyes, brace face, peg legs, you know, all that
.
Contributing to that was the Army which had us relocating every 3 years and hello, class, this is Kim Snider, please welcome her with rhymes like: Snider, spider, drinks apple cider!

So, that helped form my ridiculous and often misunderstood personality.

Here are 6 more forgettable things to promptly discard:

1. I love to ride my bike.
It is pink and has a wicker basket. Sometimes I hear the music from Wizard of Oz in my mind when I am riding and it makes me grin like an idiot. I am sure the drivers swerving to avoid me think I am a lunatic, just released from Arkham.But don't care because it makes me happy and I can't seem to stop grinning.

 

2. The older I get, the curlier my hair is.
In fact, my gray hairs are quite curly and crazy and I have a difficult time straightening them with gels, irons and products.
 The air gets quite blue at times as I burn myself trying to tame these wild hairs.
Why won't they behave?!
I have a double cowlick also that will never allow me to have bangs, which of course, I really want.
*sigh*
3. Someone recently said I was bossy but I am not! I only put my hands on my hips to make a point! 4. I have hundreds of glow in the dark stars on my bedroom ceiling. I went to an Observatory when I was in the 4th grade in NJ and fell in love with the night sky. I find it very comforting to look up at them until the sandman comes to take me away to the Land of Nod. 5. I love hats, but do not wear them. I love shoes but I do not buy them. I love clothes but don't care to dress up. I am happiest in shorts, tank top, no bra and barefoot. I think bras are horrible and cruel and should only be worn with a garter belt and hose to seduce and then promptly be removed. I love the costuming aspects of hats and clothing but am not formally trained in design. I have doll clothes and handmade Barbie clothes on tiny metal hangers in my sewing room. I collect tiny porcelain shoes. I love shoes and slippers made from paper. I have a gold Mary Poppins Hat pin from the 60's that I keep in my jewelery box and cherish.
  6. I think I have bad luck.
I am not really superstitious, not with a neighborhood full of black cats and cracks in all the sidewalks, but sometimes I think there is a jinx on me!
Just last week we got a call from the fraud dept at the bank and for the second time, my debit card has been ripped off and the numbers used to make a new card and someone in Spain had a glorious time spending all the money in our account and I choked down the bile rising from my seething stomach as she explained the situation to me over the phone. Apparently Sweetbay grocery stores are wireless and they were hacked and it was a whole bunch of people's info that was stolen and used.
Still, it makes me angry and it is just wrong.
 Evil.
That people commit crimes like that because they can and don't care who they hurt.
 To have it happen again,( the first time was TJ Maxx), is very upsetting.
 I think I am going back to cash.
Remember that?
 I never carry any, but I am going to start.
 And I am going to start walking around ladders and I promise to be very careful with mirrors from now on.
Oh, the Calamity.
 Now, I need to pick 6 people to carry on this nonsense.
 How about I just not inflict that upon anyone else and say if you want to do it you can, and then link back here and post these rules and have fun.

The rules:

1. Link back to the person that tagged you.

2. Post these rules on your blog.

3.Share six unimportant things about yourself.

4.Tag six people at the end of your entry.

 I think meme's are like chain letters in a way.
 I usually don't do them but thought I would humor Karen  who tagged me. Because I love her. But I just don't get it. I usually rebel at rules.
 What is the appeal for the meme?
Something to Blog about?
Well, lately I have been having a difficult time sitting down long enough to write- in fact I just spent 2 1/2  hours doing this.
 I could have been sewing.
Then I would really have something to Blog about.
*sigh*
