My Quirkiness

I've been tagged by Denise to list six quirky  things about me.  

I think I'm slightly uninteresting, so I had a hard time coming up with things.  I asked John the other night to name some quirky things about me, and he had a hard time, too.  See?  I am pretty dull.  After a little more thought, he decided that it would be safe to not name anything, for fear of naming the wrong thing.  

I searched the deep recesses of my under-used brain and came up with these:

1.  I cannot sneeze just once.  I normally sneeze 6 times in a row.  It's just the way it is.  Sometimes it's rapid-fire.

2.  I can't concentrate unless it's quiet.  While we were in college, I had to go in another room to study because John liked to have background music on while he studied.  Even now, when I'm working, I need to have it quiet.  Must be my ADD.

3.  I am scared of Andy Gumps.  I actually despise them (and the smell).  One would think I would be somewhat 'used' to the idea of them since I practically grew up using an outhouse.  Now I know why my mom didn't like spending too much time up at the rustic cabin.  Public restrooms give me the creeps, especially when my children have to use them.  Their little bodies have a much harder time not touching everything.

4.  I still wear a retainer.

5.  I can't fall asleep until my feet are warmed up -- I often have cold feet.  When John is out of town, and it's a chilly night, I have to wear warm socks to bed. Sometimes to be nice, I'll wear socks even if he is in town.

6.  I kringe at mispellt words, bad grammer and stuff.  Proofread, people!  Use spell check!  I'm not talking about the common typo -- we all have those.  

p.s.  I'm completely aware of the above mistakes - I did that on purpose, in case any of you didn't already figure that out.   

Now, I TAG Renee and Rebecca.  Let's here 'em girls!
