For instance.....
- I'm super excited for Battlestar Galactica's season finale tonight.  Really, really excited. Space ships, Cylons, Caprica, Gaius Baltar, the Adama's, dead Starbuck.   However, I am sitting at my desk getting ready to play with paint and glue and paper while listening to Joshua Radin's Winter and wiping away the tears from the episode of Scrubs I just finished watching that used that song at a tear filled moment.  And my favorite books are Anne of Green Gables.  Don't those things seem totally opposite? 
- I hate reality TV.  I can't stand Survivor, no that's too nice.  I despise it!  But I can sit in an airport for hours upon hours and watch people.  It's so fascinating to me.  Aren't those things similar? 
- I don't like playing games and am not competitive.  Yet, for 5 summers I was the program coordinator for a camp and was in charge of games and coming up with them and leading them and doing the 3 times a day for 8 weeks.  I LOVED that job.  The only reason, other than God saying time was up, that I quit was that I was mentally tapped. 
- When I was growing up, I hated babysitting.  The kids drove me crazy.   I did it cause I needed the money and I was good with kids (yes, I was).  I've worked in ministry with kids for almost all of my life.   I LOVE that part of ministry.  I love working at a camp with kids.  LOVE it.  There is nothing else in life that I would rather do right now.  Yet, I still try to avoid babysitting like the plague.  Of course all that changes when those little ones belong to my best friends.  Then I can't get enough of them!  I want to spend too much time with them.  Doesn't that seem wacko?
