Re: Tell me how weird you are

  • 1.  Tell me what habits/behaviors you have that are out of the ordinary.  

    I have to wear shoes every where I go.  Also, I NEVER listen to the radio.  I hate the radio and I haven't listened to it in about 8 years.  I have no idea who the current pop stars are.   

    2.  Tell me if you have any habits/behaviors that you only do alone

    I watch the Real Housewives of BH.  I won't let my H know my secret habit because he would totally give me a hard time about watching crap TV.

    I hate wearing shoes.  I would take them off everywhere or walk around barefoot if I could get away with it.

    I watch the Real Housewives of BH.  I won't let my H know my secret habit because he would totally give me a hard time about watching crap TV.  

    I also wear my shoes ALL the time. I wonder why people come in my house and think they should take their shoes off.  

  • 1.  Tell me what habits/behaviors you have that are out of the ordinary.  Aside from the shoes, I keep my A/C on 70 and then blow-dry myself, my H HATES it!! 2.  Tell me if you have any habits/behaviors that you only do aloneI have started only using the blow dryer when he is not home. (except for doing my hair of course) 
  • I used to never wear shoes around the house. But we have wood floors every where, and tile in the bathrooms and now I wear shoes for a few reaons.

    1. the floors are usually cold.

    2. no matter how often I sweep they are covered in dog hair and my feet get nasty

    3. it hurts my feet, and I think it was Carolyn that said walking barefoot on hard floors can cause plantar fasciatis and I don't need that.

    My crocs are my house slippers, lol. I wear crocs from the time I get out of bed, until I got to work, (and i've even forgot to put on work shoes and wore them to work) and as soon as I get home I put them on.

    I even set them outside the shower door so as soon as i'm done drying off I put them on.

    this is a little weird, I never really thought about it, but now that I wrote it all.. I think i have issues.

  • 1.  Tell me what habits/behaviors you have that are out of the ordinary.  

    I have a blanket that I sleep with every night.  It is my security blanket.  It is just like the blanket I had when I was a kid.  DD loves this blanket and I will forfit it when I have to.  My brother was chasing me around the house during a christmas party when I was 3 and shredded my blanket.  He laughed, my mom got mad at him.  My mom saved a square of my blanket for the longest time.  My next blanket was an afghan that my great grandma made for me.  I made my mom take it away when I was 9 and trying to stop stucking my thumb.  I told her I would never stop if I had my blanket.  I never saw it again after that.  When I was 16 I found a blanket that was exactly like my first one and I have had it ever since. 

    2.  Tell me if you have any habits/behaviors that you only do alone

    I can't think of anything that I do alone.

  • I have to smell all my food before I eat it, even if I cook it myself ( just smell the first bite not every bite)

    When I open a bag of Lays potato chips I have to search for the first folded chip and eat it before anyone takes any or I wont eat any out of that bag.

    I have a phobia of glitter, like If im within 2 feet of loose glitter or glitter that may possibly come loose I have a full on anxiety attack. 

    I cant stand the sight of a towel folded the wrong way. Well wrong in my eyes.

     I am super strange and could go on for days with this post lol. 

  • 1.  Tell me what habits/behaviors you have that are out of the ordinary.  

    I don't like to eat food with my hands if I can help it.  I cut up and eat with a fork pizza, corn on the cob, some sandwiches, ribs, and chicken. 

    I arrange my clothes in the closet by type (pants, skirts, work shirts, blouses, jackets, weekend shirts, etc) and color. 

    I have to shower every night before I go to bed no matter how late it is and how tired I am.  I can't sleep if I haven't showered.

    2.  Tell me if you have any habits/behaviors that you only do alone

    I rearrange the dishes and refold the towels and linens after H if he happens to do them before me.  I used to get frustrated with him but I've learned to just keep quite and wait until he leaves. 

    I also like to reorganize the refrigerator and pantry or clean the floors when I'm frustrated

    Wow, these are all quite unusual! Stick out tongue Where do you think the potato chip thing stems from? That's interesting!

  • No habits really, but in terms of behavior, I sometimes get annoyed by social graces (I guess you'd call them?) that people take part in and I don't always follow them. For ex, I don't see the need for saying "bless you" when someone sneezes, but I'll still say it if I'm afraid I'll be perceived as rude. Also, I don't always hold doors for people. Let me explain. Of course I hold doors when it's appropriate to do so. BUT, if I'm about to walk out the door at work, and I can tell a coworker is coming down the hall, and will be at the same door 10 seconds or more after I was, I don't always stand there for all that time, waiting for them to get there, holding the door for them. Because I HATE when people do that for me. I hate having to rush for the door just because they're holding it for me, it's so much pressure! You don't have to hold it, unless I'm right behind you, or a few seconds behind you, holding a heavy box! It's ok, just go on in, I won't think you're rude. Those are some of my weird things.

    Lauren I love the door thing.  It's so true.  But I would never think of it.  I think the only thing I can think of about myself is something I pointed out.  When I eat Doritos (too often unfortunately) I have to look at each one and put the side with more cheese on the bottom before I put it in my mouth.  I'm sure there are many many more things that make me weird but for now that's all I've got :)

  • Haha, that Doritos thing is funny! I love hearing about weird quirks like that.

    I have no clue where the chip thing came from, I have done it as far back as I could remember. Even now, DD loves BBQ lays, I buy the small snack size bags from Sams and when I open a bag for her I steal a folded chip before giving her the bag. If I open it and there is not a folded chip in there it makes me feel like somethings wrong lol. I hope to not pass this on to DD.
