It seems I'm best described as.......................

Eccentric

A couple of guys at work have mentioned it, and one or two of my blog friend too. Hubby who is Canadian (someone has to be) always says that eccentric is just a word to describe a crazy person with money. Well I only fit 50% of that description. Although I did find 2 pence today. I was trying not to tread in dog poop at the time. So maybe the money is coming.

So I looked it up, and this is the dictionary explanation.

deviating from the recognized or customary character, practice, etc.; irregular; erratic; peculiar; odd:

Ooh I said to Hubby. "Do you think I'm a mad old bat?". He thought for a minute and smiled. "Yeah, he said but you're MY mad old bat". Aint love grand.............................

I was called eccentric until somebody came up with 'Cloth-eared Bat', which somehow suited better, and it stuck.

Ahhh lovely - I think eccentric people are quite sociable, lovable folk. I work with a guy who could be described as such and always has something to say, and it's always interesting, funny and something that no-one else would have thought of saying. Yes, some of the things he says are a little bizarre BUT it brightens up a VERY long day
