7 quirks

Thank you Rachel and Lisa for giving me this opportunity to reflect on the "not so great things about myself"...it has been enlightening and I didn't realize I really did these things...but they came to me really fast as I was reflecting...

1. When I'm bored sitting in church, work meeting, etc...I start typing in my head the words the speaker is saying (like they're dictating to me).

2. I HATE shoes, especially socks. Most of my shoes don't have backs on them. When I get new ones my hubby always asks when I'm going to purchase the rest of them.

3. I have to have RANCH with pizza. There is no other way to eat it. Especially with fries from Chilis or wings from Wingers.

4. I cannot finish a chapter in the middle...and then I have to be very careful not to read the beginning of the next chapter or I can't put the book down.

5. When I get in the car...I'm dialing someone (hubby, friend, the girls, the sitter). Always somethin' I gotta tell someone.

6. My house has to be spotless before I leave for an extended period of time. (what if something happens to me while I'm gone? I would be so embarrassed if my house was found a mess and someone would think I was not a good person cause I left my house a mess OR...I want to be able to tell whether or not someone has been in my house when I was gone because I know exactly where everything was before I left).

7. I, too, count the stairs in my house (but not the ones I tredge up everyday to get to work-3 flights). We have have 13...6 to the top and 7 to the botton (split entry). My hubby thinks this is funny. I just want to make sure I don't stumble down or up (it's happened before), especially since I'm always luggin' Meg with me.

So, there you have it. "My underwear is out there on the telephone wire".

Oh man, what a fabulous post! You walked away from your desk, so you didn't hear me laugh so hard when I read the one about dictating for the speaker, oh my Hannah, that is just hilarious! I think I might have to try that! (I am still laughing, and you are still not back to your desk- SLACKER!) And Michael said the exact same thing to me when I bought a pair of shoes with no back, they think they are so clever- lol.
Good to know a little bit more about you =).
