Maybe you saw; eneventure, who I’m fond of, has tagged me to do the five-weird-things-about-you thing. I’ve seen those on other’s sites and enjoy a chance to better get to know people but each time thought I wouldn’t want to think about my weirdness for other’s entertainment. The other problem being I tell you every damn thing so I’d have to dig to come up with five things you don’t already know. But I’ll try.
I’ve noticed a compulsion to neaten the cards throughout a card game or straighten my papers, in meetings where people have their stuff in front of them. Even though my house is a mess.
I have no concept of money or what I should or shouldn’t be spending. I mean I am diligent lately about watching my stocks go up and down and I stay away from stores and restaurants but the minute someone asks me to go someplace or I need something, money seems to be no object. And the weird part is that I can’t tell if I’m spending too much. I can’t bring myself to come up with a budget.
I’m pretty sure I need a brake job on my car but I’m pretending I don’t. It’s like I’m waiting to see if they just go out one day.
I have this dog now that I’m stuck with for life. I can’t figure out what our deal is. I know I’m supposed to have her because one day a German Shorthair appeared in my backyard. I have a fenced backyard. How he got in there I don’t know. And he was quite skittish. You remember my old Brittany, Bella. Well she was thrilled to have company but this dog was even standoffish with her. Regal he was, but lost. I sat down on the forest floor and waited, Bella at my side. And ever so slowly he approached. He wanted the contact but didn’t trust me. Finally he rested his hip against my shoulder and looked the other way. When he turned to stare at me I saw a presence in his face that I’d never seen in a dog. And that’s why I have Bridget.
I’m the most sexual person I know yet I don’t give a hoot about having a man now. Why? I’m 55, it’s not like I have a lot of years left where I can still wear lingerie. But I have this very strong sense that now’s not the time. What am I waiting for? Who am I waiting for?
That’s five. I don’t know that I’d classify them as weird but I’m aware that other people don’t operate like I do. And I broke out in a sweat at one point so I guess this was productive.

I love the stroy about your dog.
get a damn brake job!
No need to wait for an accident to occur!
im the same with money, no matter how much i trie to make a budget, it never stays…
and yes, the story of your dog..very potent…
Notes: Yes, brakes do break dear one. My urologist said if you don’t use it you will lose it and he is not talking about lingerie. Why are dog more trustwothy than people, I mean seriously, why? Oh, and you don’t really seem very weird. Now belly dancing that is weird!! Especially belly dancing in San Fran.
Did you know that when a dog leans against you that it is showing that he is dominant? Now you do. Maybe you are not there for him, but he for you.
I am experiencing the same thing on my car, but here’s how twisted I am: I will slam on the breaks as if daring them to fail, and then when they don’t I’m thinking, nah, it’s not the breaks.
RYC: I know they say that building a house can sink a marriage so I should be careful of that situation. About the Brake Job…go get it they are gone..Did I ever mention that I am a Medium? Marilyn
I know what you mean about the “most sexual.” We’ll both get our groove back…when it’s right.
I find it interesting.
I love your story of your dog. I think you’re right , some animals were meant to be with us when they come into our lives out of the blue. I had a cat thats happened with also a dog, he came and stayed, his owners came and got him , a few days later he would be back , finally they left him with me. I named him Simon , when a stray shepherd came up , they became ‘ running buddies’ so I called him Garfunkle.
I think you are flirting with danger, knwoing about a brake problem and not having it checked, maybe its a rush lol I dont know .
You can wear lingerie , why not? Why not sexual relationships when you’re older?
Thats when you know the most about it, and can enjoy it without fear of pregnancy. why not ? I could tell you are sexual by your belly dancing story .
Or maybe , I’m weird.
How is your daughter’s tummy?
Have a good weekend, Prudy.
Peace and Love:)

Perhaps reshuffling papersis mildly weird but reality dodging (budget and brakes )is a coomon sportamong those of us who hate being earth bound..and not all that weird. The other stuff comes under the heading of a gift..you are finely tuned into a type of understanding that is intuitive and invaluable. You are a lucky person in this .
Re:the dog. I think you’re right – some animals are meant to be with us. You’ll know why, when the time comes.
Love your entry (again!)…
I agree on the reality dodger (GUILTY HERE TOO)
ohh this sounds familiar..guess Im weird too!
cuz none of its weird to me! LOL
lol…you broke out in a sweat? Funny.
There’s an important announcement posted. Please come read it! ~Denise~
I know I’m supposed to have HER because one day a German Shorthair appeared in my backyard. I have a fenced backyard. How HE got in there I don’t know
Alright…a transvestite dog
i don’t think you’re weird. i think you’re remarkable!
and i was wondering about the gender of the dog as well…….
Hello Prudy,
Dont be worried ( in regard to your comment).. I was being a little whiner for a few minutes.I don’t claim to be a poet , I just like words and writing .
I hope you are feeling well.
Thanks for stoping by again .
Peace and Love:)
heheh-seems you had an easier time of this than I. Makes mine just seem disgusting not weird. And I thought about that. With you, it’s not weird, just different. Different means we just have more in common. The more I learn about you, the more I find I want to aspire to have the confidence and sexiness you exude. And you do that, you know. thanks for sharing. It keeps filling in the image I have of you- letting us know you more…
RYC: THANK YOU- It’s extremely overwhelming…
