Ten Odd Things

I’ve been tagged by both Melani Blazer and Christine D’Abo for this meme. I’m sure I’ve done this before but I will try. You are supposed to list ten odd things, or habits, about yourself – or as Melani says “weird random things”.

I’m not sure I’m at all weird or random but I’ll try. LOL – ok maybe…

  1. I am both controlling and impulsive. This makes it confusing for my family members who are used to me following a particular pattern and then, boom, I change it.
  2. I do not like it when people borrow my pens and don’t put them back. I’ve said this before but it really does annoy me. I bought whacks of pens for your use, leave mine alone. It’s not my fault you lose yours.
  3. Sort of tied to number two but if a pen comes with a cap DON’T put it back on. I like it at the top. I do not like having to uncap pens to use them and I like the caps on the top to make the pens longer. I know it’s weird and I don’t care. Leave my pens alone!!
  4. I don’t like hair. I mean I like my hair and hair that stays on people’s head but I don’t like hair in my sink or shower – even if it’s mine and even if it’s clean. I don’t like it. Yuck. That is why I am thrilled that dh has his own bathroom with shower. I don’t have to find his chest hairs, head hairs or any other hairs in my
  5. I could copy #5 from Christine almost word for word. In fact, I will…”I have a little OCD going on in my life. If I want something I tend to obsess over it until I get it. Check my email a thousand times a day if I’m waiting for someone to answer me. And if I want something bad enough I will get it.” This ocd does not apply to house cleaning, however. LOL
  6. I am a worrier. I will worry about things that do not matter. It drives my dh insane.
  7. I cannot watch horror movies. Or any kind of movie that involves children getting hurt. I worry enough as it is (see #6) and I will have nightmares. Oh yes, I will.
  8. I do not really like chicken. I eat it because it is supposed to be healthy and I have had some good chicken dishes but it still ooks me out. This is because dh made me barely cooked chicken something-or-other when I was pregnant with child #1 and I pretty much haven’t been able to deal well with it since. It took me two years after that before I was able to eat it at all.
  9. Again, oddly similar to Christine, I don’t like cooked green peppers (and again, this stemmed from my first pregnancy). I will, however, eat them raw. I love Greek Salad.
  10. I have a very easy gag reflex. Lots of things can set it off. Even thinking about it can set it off. Oh, I need to stop talking about it. :sick:
  11. I think I am supposed to tag 10 people. Most of the people I know have already done this but I’ll try. If I tag you and you’ve done it , otherwise you’re on: RG, Immi, Jackie, Babe,Joely, Elle, Victoria, Jenn(ontheisland), Racy, um…anyone else?
