I so idiosyn-crazy.

That was a stretch, wasn't it? Anyway -

List five idiosyncrasies you have.

I highly doubt these make me unique in any way; they're just quirks that I have.

1. Every night before I go to bed I must take a shower. There's a routine involved. If I have to relieve myself I go before I shower. I slosh some mouthwash around in my mouth and jump in the tub. I then proceed to wash my face with face wash (duh) and brush my teeth while in the shower. When I emerge I use lotion (in the winter) or baby oil (in the summer) on my skin, powder under the 'pits, put on my undies, slip on my clean sleepwear, and then head to bed. Any deviation from the rough order leaves me out-of-sorts come morning.

2. I hate when people brush their hair/pick their noses/play with their faces while sitting/standing near me on the the subway. I can just visualize the minuscule particules and microbes moseying on over to me. Ugh.

3. If I'm really hungry I can't eat more than a couple of spoon-fulls of food before suddenly feeling nauseous. And no, I don't shovel it down. All of a sudden I just feel the bile rising and I have to put the food down before I upchuck, even if it's a meal I usually enjoy.

4. I cannot stand plays of any type, from Shakespeare to modern-age ones. If it's a musical I can somehow soldier through, but plays make me want to plug my ears and singsong "la la la - I can't hear you!" really loud. I blame it on a youth full of inflicted "educational plays" at local colleges that were sucky.

5. I always carry a book on me. If walking long distances I always have to carry a CD player, CDs, and a new set of batteries (just in case).

Tagging xwinterwolfx, wc_dragon, tjfalcon, lostmiseashellz, and theoban. If you've done this already and you don't want to bother with doing it again, just sit your quirks in a reply. I want to know what makes y'all twitch.

*is tagged* gah! i've never been good at playing physically-exerting games. ah well. hmmm... don't feel like reposting, but let's see how weird i am:

1. i hate doing anything when i'm sick. i don't even like bathing, talking, singing...whatever. i don't like it. i feel like there's no use. that's not to say i don't do it, however.

2. i hate when people use the word cute in other contexts than describing puppies and babies. i hate people calling me cute.

3. i have a thing for describing people as their celebrity look-alike counterparts. it was really bad freshman year.

4. i say "like," "oh boy," "goodness," "um," "uh," and "let's see" WAY too much.

5. once i like something, i make it a tem porary fandom. it's all i can think about, talk about and breathe about. until it fizzles or fades. then it becomes a minor obsession that flares up every now and then. i think i just described fangirl arthritis. lmao


how's that for quirky?

Definitely. I suffer from a chronic case of it. *grin*

You know, most of your stuff seems like common sense. That's a sort of compliment. I guess. *grin* I hate the overuse of "cute" too. Grrrr.

i seriously get mad when will or jack uses that 4 letter word in my presence. they've both bore witness to my wrath.

and fangirl arthritis isn't necessarily bad...just eternally recurring. lol

i probably have tons of weird things i could say about myself, but when i went to sit down to write any out, i couldn't think of any all of a sudden. go figure. here's a freebie: i have a patch of skin on my stomach that's lighter than the rest of the skin, and on my back there's a darker patch than the rest of the skin there, and it's shaped like a rabbit. no joke.
