In high school, I was voted "Decidedly Different." It wasn't that much of a surprise to me - I always marched to a different drummer, as they say. My son has apparently inherited this gene from me. His prize possession (other than, of course, his computer) is a grey, rabbit fur Russian hat that he wears all winter (and would probably wear all summer if it weren't so darn hot!)
We are, as I often say, odd ducks. And we know it. And we embrace it.
I am now seeing someone who is a bit quirky, too, which is why, I believe, that we get together so well. We're not just an ordinary couple (and what is ordinary, anyway?) I think those couples who are less than ordinary are the ones who seem to last, as long as they both understand and respect their individual right to be, well, individuals.
And, after all, why be normal :)
