1….I am currently wearing shorts.
2....I twirl my hair. It's kind of scary. I often find myself doing it when I didn't realize I was. Once, I saw my hand as it moved up towards my hair to twirl it. It freaked me out because I saw it moving, but I wasn't consciously doing it. When I was 13, my sister used to laugh at me and insist, "Playing with your hair is a sign of sexual dissatisfaction." I never was able to find any confirmation on that.
3.....I have a collection of funky socks that I wear often.
4....Everyone feels compelled to buy me Chanukah socks. I have about 8 pairs.
5.....I love thunderstorms. There was a time when we lived on the bay and we could watch the storm clouds come across the ocean. We loved it.
6.....Based on my astrological sign, A Cancer or Scorpio should be my perfect match.
7.....My husband is an Aries which is not supposed to work at all.
8....My absolute worst match is a Virgo. My mother is a Virgo. That explains so very much.
9....My mother recently sent me a great big box o'WTF (she likes to throw as many random things as possible into a box and then spend at least $20 to send it to me) which included a set of salt and pepper shakers shaped like a trout (one is the head and the other is the tail). Dh and I HATE them.
10....I am very much not an outdoors person (I love the outdoors, but I hate camping and things of that sort), so we have no clue why she sent them to us and we really wish she hadn't.
11....They have recently put in a bunch of those huge red metal donation dumpsters around town and I couldn't be happier. We've already made several visits to them to deposit donations and we will be doing that again soon (see #9).
12....Up until I was 10 (and was teased mercilessly), I said "Pellow" instead of "Pillow."
13....Whenever I do these "Random things about me" type entries, I always ask dh for help and despite the fact that he's known me for more than a decade, he very rarely offers any suggestions at all.

I loved these quirky things! You've got to post pix of your funky socks!
Thanks for stopping by my 13!!
Dude, I am SO a Virgo. What does this mean for our friendship? And where are these donation dumpsters? You must share the joy. And socks! I adore socks. On my permanent list of appropriate gifts for me for any occasion from any giver are: crayons, pens, stationery, notebooks, hair scrunchies (which for some reason I insist on calling hair-doo-flatchies) and socks.) No one except husband and one friend ever buys them for me because they don't believe I really, truly want them. (I do.) They insist that I'm just being polite. (I'm not.)
I love reading the random things lists! Yours was great! I got a kick out the salt and pepper shakers.
Thanks so much for visiting my blog!
