After writing down some of my honey’s quirks, he has so candidly brought up some of my quirks. So, I thought it would only be fair to make my own list of weird things I do. I hope he enjoys them. I’m sure I will have a never ending list once he gets a hold of it. But it’s o.k., I embrace my weirdness.
- When I talk, I make a lot of facial gestures. Quite exaggerated apparently.
- I talk to myself out loud. I answer my own questions and give different points of view as if they were other peoples opinions.
- When I wake up in the middle of the night and Jason is not in bed, I go look for him. Every time he has been in the bathroom but I still look. Don’t know where I am thinking he might be but I look for him.
- I apologize profusely for everything. Especially things that aren’t my fault but are directed from me.
- I listen to the same music over and over but get very testy when Jason does the same.
- I refuse to control my need to criticize movies that I don’t want to watch, basically ruining the movie since I talk throughout the entire movie.
- I can not sleep with Jason’s legs on me. He seems to feel that this is a comfortable way to sleep and tries to lay this way a lot. I will lay there with his leg on me and usually about the time that he is falling asleep, I create a big ruckus about how I can’t feel my legs when he lays that way. This one is on both of us.
- I can not accept a compliment. I look for hidden meaning in it, as if it is sarcastic.
- And I look for hidden meaning in nearly everything that is said to me. I rarely just accept something for how it comes out. Usually causing disagreements or at least too much talking about how something was meant when it was only meant the exact way it came out.
- I can not pop a pimple to save my life. I squeeze and use my finger nails way too much and rarely get anything out, causing a lot more pain than the pimple ever would have caused.
- I do not listen well at all. I talk way too much but do not equally listen. Selfish.
- I am insane about looking for 4 leaf clovers. And I find them, that’s the problem. I find 1 and I cant stop. My record is 127 in about 3 hours. But I can not just walk into someones house, I have to stop and look for clovers.
- I have a big attitude for my size. I try to control it, I really do but apparently I wear my emotions on my face and it is more obvious than my mouth and goes on for a lot longer because I am holding it in instead of just letting it out and getting it over with.
- I am extremely opinionated. I have something to say about everything.
- I am shy. I have gotten better about it but when I meet new people I stare at the floor.
- Along the lines of shyness, I have a tendency to walk behind people instead of next to them. I easily anticipate their movements and will slip out of the way without a problem but end up sort of hiding from them because I am turning with them-and I’m short so I tend to be out of sight anyway.
- My complaining will drive people crazy. My honey, my boss and co-workers. sorry.
- I am scared of my rabbit. He is big and bites me for some reason. He doesn’t bite anyone else, just me. I think he gets a kick out of it.
- I chain smoke at home. I will go through 2 cartons of cigarettes in less than 2 weeks. That is more than a pack a day which may not sound terrible but I work 5 days a week, at least 8 hours each day. It really is ridiculous. I’m not sure that I actually know what it feels like to want a cigarette.
- I wake up at 6:40am, everyday, whether I work or not. The problem is that I can not get up quietly. Once I’m up, so is Jason for the most part.
- I can not explain myself clearly AT ALL. I am terrible about expressing myself-coupled with the fact that I talk too much, wow. Makes for some long drawn out explanations, not conversations.
- I have to turn the TV on when I get up to go to the bathroom at night. It is too dark in my room and I cant see, I tend to trip or stub my toe on everything so the TV must go on so I can see- waking Jason.
- I complain about my weight but eat what I want. I work hard and 8 out of 10 times, I don’t eat at work. so I end up eating Taco Bell or Burger King at 10pm. Duh, this makes you fat
- I complain about my teeth but wont go to the dentist. My issue has been insurance and cost. well, I have had dental insurance since May. 4 months and I still haven’t even attempted to look for a dentist.
- I love an odd variety of music. Frank Sinatra, Danzig, Misfits, 80 rock-Bon Jovi, Air Supply, odd combination. Well, I have no problem with subjecting other people to what I want to hear and then basically telling them to go to hell when they don’t want to hear it, that I have to hear what they want so they’ll have to hear my choices as well. Even though I probably like what they’re listening to.
- I don’t know how to drive. I don’t exactly want to know but need to learn. I’m 30 and need to be able to get myself to and from work without disrupting Jason and the whole crew.
- I roll my eyes like a baker rolls dough. I cant stop. I try. But I can not control it. When someone says something I don’t agree with or maybe tells me to do something I don’t want to do, it is obvious because before I turn away, I roll my eyes.
- I curse like a sailor. No explanation needed.
- My accent is horrible! I don’t really pronounce my R’s. I have been told its cute but, really, come on. I must sound so ignorant.
- I am terribly indecisive. If we are going to get something to eat or going out, Jason will ask where Iwant to go. I can not make that simple of a decision. yet, I am so opinionated.
- I absolutely HATE and DESPISE pornography. It is vulgar and horrible! As far as I am concerned, it is no better than cheating. If you cant keep your hands off of yourself for a little while, then you need help.
- I love my animals, especially my dogs. They are wonderful companions but I hate them in my bed. They leave dirt and hair and lay on my pillow where I will be putting my face.
- I hate people feeding animals from their plate while they are eating. It leaves the animals sitting at every ones feet begging. Jason always feeds the dogs from his plate and this is almost always a battle.
- I grind my teeth 90% of the time. My head hurts constantly because of this.
- I am so uncoordinated and will basically trip over my own feet.
- I am actually enjoying this self-reflection.
- I can certainly be neurotic, especially at work and I am very bad about criticizing other people’s quality of work.
- I talk to my animals and answer for them. In my opinion, most of them have lisp’s.
- I find it really odd that the word LISP, is probably very hard for someone with a lisp to say.
- I have to call Jason multiple times a day. No reason, nothing to say. I just need to hear his voice and hear him tell me he loves me.
- When we go to Taco Bell, which is like everyday, Jason orders the same thing. So while he is ordering, I am ordering with him, quietly. But it confuses the hell out of him and I get a good laugh every time.
- And last, today, at Taco Bell, of course, we pulled up to the speaker and THEY ordered for us. talk about Jason being confused- he didn’t know what to say! It was hilarious!
- Well, I guess that is all. I know I got away from myself for a bit but I did enjoy listing all of my weirdness. Thanks for reading it! Comments are welcomed!
