what is normal anyway?
because i am bored. like everyone else.
top five idiosyncrasies
- i love to fill out forms. don't ask me why. i just do.
- i never finish a glass of anything*. i always leave about 1/4 inch of liquid. again, i don't have any explanation for this behavior.
- i de-clutter hotel rooms. normally, i'm not an ocd person, but when it comes to hotel rooms, especially chain hotels, i must de-clutter. i hate all those stupid plexiglas displays. i put them away with the gideons bible.
- stationery stores turn me on. the smell, the look, the contents. it's all about forms and paper and great pens and notebooks. it is just all so great. my dream is to own one.
- i always order off the menu. and it's not just because i'm a vegan either. this, i know, stems from something my dad told me when i was about eight: "if you're paying for it, you should have it the way you want it." well, dad. it stuck. i'm now the butt of the big family joke titled: "what will she ask for now?"
*ok. i admit it. this might not apply to cab.

OH MY GOD. I have never met anyone else who did that. I also leave a 1/4 of liquid in a glass. I can't finish it. This pisses off my husband to no end.

I also love to fill out forms, even tax ones.
BTW, the baby carrier in last week's faves was highlighted in a recent Parenting magazine. The experts agree with you, apparently.

The first three, they're all me, too.
And it drives the hubby nuts that, even if we're only staying overnight, I *have* to put all our clothes in the drawers, too.

Oooh, I like filling out forms too. And if my printing turns out yucky, I get grouchy and feel like starting over.
