Tagged

My sister-in-law Codi (just returned from an Indianapolis adventure) and former roommate Nici (just had her first baby) both tagged me recently so here it goes:

The Rules: Link the Person who Tagged you. Mention rules on your blog. Tell about 6 quirks of yours. Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same. Leave a comment on their blog to let them know.

7 quirks:

1 - I clean my home from the inside out meaning I always start with the bedrooms/private area and work my way out to the front room and kitchen/public area (a.k.a. "places people can see from my front door and therefore should probably be picked up first" or so Andrew says).

2 - When I deal cards I count up to the total number of cards to be distributed instead of what seems to be the traditional way. So it's "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, . . . " instead of "1, 1, 1, 1, 2, 2, 2, 2, 3, 3, 3, 3, . . . " Frankly I think my way is more efficient.

3 - I often add water to lemonade when I eat out because restaurant lemonade is usually too strong.

4 - I am completely addicted to the computer game minesweeper.

5 - I am particular about how the laundry is folded. I'm trying really hard to refrain from refolding clothes that Andrew folds.

6 - I kind of shuffle the pages of novels while I read them, making various patterns. For example, I move one page for each paragraph I read until I find the middle part of the book.

7 - Like Codi I also get a feeling similar to "shopper's high" when I get rid of stuff. Luv it!

They'd shoot you dead on the spot in Vegas for #2.

I always knew you were quirky...but you left off the way in which you drink from a straw...it always cracked me up. :)

Minesweeper is a good game. Currently my high score is 309 for expert, but I'm pretty sure that when I played it back in the day I was in the mid 100's.

Oh yeah, and when I drink from a straw I put it to the side of my mouth not the middle. . . .

Thanks for sharing Jill...we could all have a list a mile long...I know I could! I share in the laundry one...I cringe at how some people fold their clothes and hold back my urge to refold...
