I’ve been tagged

by

Someone's getting cut-eyeSarah of Mental and Emotional Health was tagged in a weird things meme showdown and so, like the rock star she is, she passed on the hassle joy to me. So, here’s:

Six Weird Things About Me

  1. My natural hair colour has every shade in it. There’s platinum blonde, orangey red, fiery red, auburn, brown, black, dirty blonde. Everything. And my eyes change colour with my moods. Watch out if they’re clear blue with very dark rims; cuddle with me if they’re green.
  2. I fall in (and out of) love so easily. I love every friend I make that I feel an instantaneous connection with and am not afraid to say so - at least a third of my phone calls end with, “I love you,” and 98% of those are with women who I am not involved in a lesbian tryst with.
  3. My daughter’s name, Zoë, means ‘life.’ Seven years ago, I got a Hebrew tattoo in the same spot that her foot was stuck during my second and third trimesters of pregnancy - she was a footling breech. The tattoo means life. I didn’t pick her name or know it’s meaning until way after she was born.
  4. My first full sentence was at 14 months and contained at least two swearwords. It almost caused a traffic accident.
  5. My taste in men is shallow and usually has something to do with their attire - I prefer the old school skater boy look with baggy jeans, Etnies and a long sleeved tee layered under a short sleeved one. I usually have a problem with the slacker attitude that goes with the attire, though.
  6. I am at least a quarter native - Cree, actually. I am also the whitest native person you’re likely to ever come across, with a complete disinterest in native issues and culture.

I’m not going to tag anyone else, because…well, if you’re interested, you’ll do it and if not, what kind of commentary is that on how you feel about me?

About Eating Disorder Talk

The goal of Eating Disorder Talk is to encourage family and friends of people living with disordered eating - as well as sufferers - to learn more about the conditions, where to get help, the risks associated and another vessel of communication. I come with 20 years of experience living with (and sometimes for) anorexia; my job is not to cure, it’s to allow others to speak. This means wanting to help those that want help and to provide a voice to those who don’t.
