Idiosyncracies

1. I really don't enjoy takeout. If I'm going to eat restaurant food, I get irrationally annoyed if it's at my own kitchen table.
2. I'm obsessed with flossing; however, I get irritated if I don't find anything to floss out.
3. Ditto with cotton swabbing... no wax? Waste of time. I know I'm gross.
4. I swab Sadie's ears almost daily. I claim it's in the name of ear infection prevention. In reality, I just like to do it.
5. Bar soap makes me itchy. I don't think it actually does, but I've convinced my body to have this reaction, so I can justify paying more for pleasantly-odored body washes instead.
6. At all times Facebook, Twitter, Gmail, both of my blogs, and at least one celebrity gossip site is open and active on my Web browser.
7. I read celebrity gossip sites in the exact same order every. single. morning. People then Us Weekly then Bricks & Stones Gossip then CocoPerez then Perez Hilton then PopSugar. Never varies.
8. I never write in print. Cursive always.
9. When I get bored in meetings, I diagram the facilitator's sentences in the notebook in which I should be taking notes. I wish I could get paid to diagram sentences (but not in a teaching role).
10. I get ready every morning to SportsCenter. As soon as my alarm goes off, it's on the TV. Steve Levy and John Anderson are my favorite duo. Neil Everett and Stan Verrett are runners up. Sorry, Buccigross. It is also common knowledge that I have a bad hair day every time Linda Cohn is an anchor.

Kind of with you on the flossing thing.

I am the same with flossing and ear cleaning. I am NOT a fan of bar soap, it just seems dirty to me.

I am the same way about resturant food, I think it may be actually better when you eat it there!

Ams said...

I heart diagramming sentences too!

Adorable idiosyncrasies, all! I'm the opposite when it comes to penmanship. I always print unless it requires my (messy) signature.

What a cute list...I agree that it's a waste of time for flossing and ear swabbing if you don't get anything. :)

Heather said...

This list cracks me up. Especially #9. :) Have a good day.

Great list!

LOL...one of my favorite posts! I am totally with you about the ear cleaning and the flossing. I would be embarrassed to admit that except, well you just did. (thanks for that)

The low carb protein bars makes great replacements for meal or simply as snacks especially if we want to lose weight with high protein diet.

I'm addicted to gossip websites too! Have to disagree with you on the takeout one, haha. Sometimes after a long day I don't feel like dressing up and going out for dinner, and am too happy to curl up in my pajamas with a carton of Chinese food and some Sex and the City reruns!
