whimsically strange

i did a little bit of soul searching today while looking through old pictures and i realized something about myself.

im weird

like really weird

and i always have been.

i have been called it for years and years but now i fully get it.

here is example a, b, c, d, e, f, and g to prove my case.

a) underwear on the head. not just any underwear; my brothers underwear. i guess it started early.

b) spongebob costume. i wore this around in public. and no, it wasnt halloween.

 c) yes those are 50 cent fake tattoos turned into a sleeve. and yes i wore this in public. even to a concert i was working at.

d) nerdy costume. but i DO wear my hair like that on a normal day. rockin the side ponytail napoleon dynamite style.

e) i dont think much can be said about this.

f) this picture is all sorts of awful. but hey...i am most certainly rockin that alligator head like im americas next top model.

g) that is in fact a toilet seat cover. on my head. not sure why but its there.

some people think the term "weird" is bad

and i guess i use to be offended when people would call me it.

but according to dictionary. com weird is:

fantastic; bizarre

and bizarre means:

markedly unusual in appearance, style, or general character and often involving unexpected elements; outrageously or whimsically strange; odd:

i think i can be okay with that.

i am me and as far as i am concerned no one else can be.

so why not be proud of the weird, strange, unusual person i am?

besides,

when was normal ever fun?
