My son politely just told me that I am weird about everything. 

Kids!

I guess I'm forthright, and some people are just not used to, or ready for that.

Good question...most people thing me being an anglophile is very strange!!! I get a lot of odd looks when I say that!!

um...I think most people who know me think I am just generally strange. My taste in everything is not the norm. I am definetely the oddball in my family. I have one or two people who really understand me and accept me for exactly who I am!!

Oh...my co worker where just teasing me because I use a hot water bottle!!!

My fondness for traditional Celtic music and Baroque classical music instead of more modern fare has gotten me an odd look on more than one occasion.  I'm practically the only person I know who thrills at the sound of bagpipes.  I also notice some rolling eyes when I'm talking about anything British.  In my office, I have not one, but two calendars with pictures of thatched cottages, castles and the like.  I can't help it - I'm an Anglophile and proud of it!  Smile
