As was pointed out by my cousin Kim I really haven't blogged in a long time. Not for lack of anything going on, but rather there has been so much going on I just haven't had a moment to.
Since I was tagged by Kim for this.. Here are 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 to let them know
I am sure I have more than 6 quirks - it's just a matter of if I want to talk about them in public or not. :)
1 - I have a very unhealthy fascination with ric rac. If you don't know what I am talking about it's the zig zag trim that is sewn onto clothing and other things. I *LOVE* this stuff!! I want to put it on everything. I have several colors of the stuff and probably a total of more than 300 yards. I would have more but I have controlled myself.
2 - When I am driving in my car and stop at a light I don't like to keep my foot on the clutch so I put my car in neutral. Even though I do this 99% of the time, I sometimes still forget it's in neutral and try to take off - revving my engine.
3 - I like to name cars. I haven't ever owned a car that I haven't named. The 2003 Mazda P5 is Ghertrude. I call her Gherti for short. The 1962 Mercury Comet is Lucy.
4 - If I get hot when I am under the covers I stick my foot outside the blankets to regulate my temperature. When my foot gets cold, I have usually cooled down enough and so I pull my foot back in.
5 - I don't like paperback books, only hardbound. If I try to read a paperback book I usually end up breaking the spine and then the pages fall out.
6 - Just as with ric rac I love stationary and pens. Whenever I go to a store that sells either of these items I have to personally restrain myself from purchasing one or both. I don't know what it is about those two things, but they get me every time.
Now to tag 6 people who must say their quirks.. I pick - Jon, Megan, Niki, Jennifer R., Tyson and Stacy.

First of all, I am never lending you a book! Just kidding ;)
I also use my foot to control my temperature since blankets are essential to my good nights sleep.
I am also in love with ric rac. I wanted to put some on Gracie's dance bag but didn't have time to find a color to match...I got a LOAD of hand me down ric rac from Buck's grandma and it is my favorite hand-me-down by far!
How very similar we are. It's like we're related or something!
Stationary - Love it! I have so many cards and notecards, and I NEVER send notes to people! I just seem to collect the things! And I never want to part with them, so I keep buying more for different events, b/c I don't want to use the "good" stationary!
Ok so I know that you tagged me and all but I do not know 6 people let alone 6 people who I know that blog.... unless you want me to tag you again. I guess I could do it here:
1. i like to come up with ideas, a lot of ideas, but never do anything with them. Just coming up with something new is fun.
2. checklists. i like to make check lists of things to do and if i did something before i made the list i add it so i can check it off.
3.banjo music makes me happy it is the music that now matter were i am or what i am doing i find that i start tapping my toe and smiling.
4.the sound of a table tennis ball also makes me happy. i hear it and get all excited. it is one of the funnest games to play
5. i hate to sweat! i just hate it.
sad thing is just a short walk down the hall and i am feeling the drips start. oh i hate it.
6.every year after labor day i start to grow a beard until Halloween. it is kind of my homage to fall. i want to one day get a curly stash but meg said she will never kiss me again if i wax it and shape it. i love fall it is the best time of the year.... even in SoCal. something about the light.
there ya go.
