Tagged (i gave in)

ok ok so I haven't been in love with the idea of promoting myself in this "tagged" thing... but in all honesty I've loved reading the quirks from everyone else. In fact, several of you people have made me laugh out loud. I'm pretty sure my quirks are much less interesting but to avoid being called a "party pooper" or "too cool" any longer, I'm gonna give it a shot... don't fall asleep.

Here are the rules:
Mention the rules on your blog.
Tell about six unspectacular quirks of yours.
Tag six bloggers by linking them.

1. Not sure how to word this one appropriately... but if someone "passes gas" anywhere near me when I am drinking water, I will immediately cover my water glass. I have this instant fear that the odor will seep into my drink and ruin the taste forever. Those who know me best have probably witnessed this... its definitely become a quirk for me.


2. I don't like having cold feet at night... and sometimes I can act a little O.C.D. about getting a pair of socks on my feet. One time when on a trip, I bugged everyone who was trying to sleep as I pilfered through my bag looking for some cozy socks. It's a mental thing, I'm sure.

3. I like hot drinks (coffees) extra hot. If I don't order it "extra hot" it wont last me more than 5 minutes before I pretty much wanna throw it away. Wow, I sound snobby. haha, its just the truth, I no longer enjoy it if it's not real hot. Julie pointed this out to me the other day... thanks.

4. When it comes to a job (teaching, coaching soccer, teaching swim lessons) I can be really organized and want things done a specific way. I spend a lot of time thoroughly preparing and can border on seeming like a perfectionist. At the same time, I am that girl that can be totally scatter brained and not know where her keys are for 10 minutes...

5. I have this issue with misspelled words. I notice them a lot when other people do it and I have a hard time not pointing it out. Is that a quirk? One time my friend wrote the word "tomorrow" wrong about 10 times before I finally said something. She wrote "tomarrow" and after a day of prayer, I got the courage to let her know her issue. Ok... maybe not prayer but we had a good laugh. Wow, I'm boring even myself with this post, sorry everyone. haha. The funny thing is, I'll probublee spellde sevrall wurds wrong on dis post, wright?

6. I can't think of anymore. I know have a million more. Feel free to tell me what you think my quirks are... and honestly... if you've made it this far I'll give you five bucks

I am gonna tag....
