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.Baby Macy is here!

I hate wearing shoes. I would take them off everywhere or walk around barefoot if I could get away with it.
I also wear my shoes ALL the time. I wonder why people come in my house and think they should take their shoes off.
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!
Where do you think the potato chip thing stems from? That's interesting!
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.
