Happy Birthday to You

Frankly, I’m irritating.  You see if everyone else likes it, I probably don’t!  Whether it is music or just about anything else, I like what I like, and if I don’t – too bad!  Over the years I have learnt to close my ears and my eyes.  We travel in the car – I don’t hear the music because I don’t want to.  We have on the tv – again, I don’t want to so I don’t see it.  I can live with that, everyone is happy.  I get on with what I want to do, and life continues.  Of course, it means that if anyone mentions the name of a ‘celeb’, or the title of a song, invariably I have no idea of the subject of the conversation.  For instance, a while ago, at a party, we played a game which involved having names put onto our forehead.  We had to guess the name.  I had to resource to questioning my DH – questions like ‘Have I heard of him?’  I looked at Pinterest today.  The page was covered with ‘Simon’.  Simple Simon?  Simon Says?  I didn’t recognise him, and I have no idea who he is.  As for films, well….  apart from James Bond.  Yes, I have heard of him, but if there is one on TV I make remarks like ‘Was this before or after Roger Moore?  Sometimes it IS Roger Moore!  I know he was James Bond at one point because my aunt told me!

And there you have it – the link!  Happy Birthday, Auntie Dot.  We had a lovely chat earlier.  I tried to find a photograph, but they are filed too well.  I’ll find one for the biggie, next year!

Incidently, something else I recently saw on Pinterest was ‘Why try to conform, you were born to be an individual’.  Maybe I not as odd as I have always thought……..)  (Watch out later for the Weekly Photo Challenge, here’s the link)
