six quirks.

Tagged by Mel, a fellow Marylander and a great lover of books.

  1. I say "PUNkin" not "PUMPkin." (I would also like to state for the record that I say "Can you borrow me a dollar?" instead of "Can you lend me a dollar?" I know. Embarrassing.)
  2. I count steps as I go up them.
  3. I hate getting out of the shower. Hate it. I just do not like the wet, drippy, cold feeling.
  4. I get an insane rush out of shaving off the tiniest amounts of time from menial tasks. This means I do things like unwrap items from their packages while on the way home from the store then place all the trash in one bag and all the goods in another.
  5. I could and would eat the exact same thing for breakfast, lunch and dinner. And that thing is cereal.
  6. I unwrap straws the Jamba Juice way, slight tear toward the top, then pull of the bottom, stick it in the drink and pull off the top.

The list goes on. And on…

    I hate getting out of the shower too, especially in the winter. I hate to be cold.

    It’s not the Jamba Juice way…it’s the Waitress Way.
    I too say Punkin.
    I throw out the packages too…except it’s harder now since I got a boner for “I don’t need a bag” and now the wrappers go in my driver’s side “map holder” thingy.
    I eat the same thing all day if J isn’t home.
    I love your quirks.

    hm, sounds strangely familiar, almost just like me. i count stairs as i go up them, mostly because i live in a 5th floor walk up, and i think, man, if i had a nickel for every step, then, well id have a lot more money than i have now.
    and i totally do the straw thing, mostly with my venti starbucks iced coffee or a sonic bev.
    i like getting out of the shower, just not in the shower. i think to myself, man, i just climbed all those stairs. can i really stand long enough to shower? yeah okay im kidding, but i definitely get lazy to where i dont want to stand that long.

    I am a stair counter too, and number 6 is too funny.
