I know I am more than a little quirky!

So my friend Andrea tagged me for this little project in self-examination. After reading her hilarious posting and comments, I couldn't help but participate. I still owe her a nice comment from a previous posting, but I have been busy with my own blogging.

Let's see, so the rules are:

1. Link the person who tagged you - Andrea
2. Post these rules.
3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours.
4. Tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them

Here goes...

1) Roaches make me itch. I can't stand those big pine tree flying roaches, even the though of one makes my nose begin to itch like crazy. Spiders, worms, snakes I can handle, but not roaches. Yuck!!!!!

2) I hate sticky little hands. I love the little bodies attached to the hands but I hate to be touched by sticky hands. I hate to get my clothes all stained up, probably because I have to do all the laundry and clothes shopping. I bite my lip and don't say anything because I don't want to hurt anyone feelings, but I hate to be sticky.

3) I hate to get my hands dusty, like from chalk or pulling potatoes. I don't mind being wet or muddy, but I hate to be dusty. I have to wash my hands to get the feeling off. I know, it is really weird.

4) I hate to hear or see any recordings of myself. I can't stand the sound of my own voice outside of my head. I just think I sound bad and always feel like I am doing something idiotic. I don't mind being recorded, I just won't watch or listen to it. So much for my career on the big screen.

5) Is this a quirk, I like to eat scrambled eggs and black eyed peas with ketchup. Yum! I suppose I should also mention that I love food, it is my therapy. When I am down I eat. Thanks to my Dad, I always have to have something sweet after dinner, it just isn't right without dessert.

6) I can't go on vacation unless all the clothes are washed, the dishes are clean, the trash is empty and the house is tidy, even for one night away from home. I hate it, I don't want to come back to a dirty house. I don't feel this way when I am at home, just when I am leaving. I can't pack until all the clothes are washed. That is why it takes me two days to pack.

So there you have it, 6 quirks. I am sure y'all can suggest about 60 more.

I will tag Susan F , Erin, Melissa and Meredith.

I know that is only 4 but everyone else has been tagged, clearly some more of my friends and family need to start blogging! :)

I'm with you on the clean house before vacation thing and the voice recording--I hate it! Oh, and who doesn't hate roaches?
