Tag! You're it!!

I have been tagged! YAY!

6 Quirky Things about me:

1. I can't fall asleep without my husband in bed with me. Even if I am dead tired, I will entertain myself on the computer or read or even stay up to watch him play his video games until he comes to bed. On the flip side - he's not allowed to fall asleep without me. If he is tired and I am not - I refuse to let him go to bed without me until I am ready. I just like falling asleep together - it makes me happy.

2. I am a picker - meaning if I see a zit or in-grown hair or anything that just need to be removed to make skin smooth again - I have to get it! Even if it is not on my own body!! My poor husband suffers from my wrath to painful ends! MUAHAHAHAHAH! (evil laugh)

3. Why is my closet a pigsty and my daughter's closet is in perfect order? Clothes on hangers - color coordinated and by seasons, shoes in order, dresses and outfits facing the same way on the hanger...it happens in her dresser too...PJ's and socks are even organized. One day, my closet and drawers will be just like hers. I wonder if this will last when baby #2 comes along??

4. I can't sleep without a fan going. I need the constant HUMMMMMM of the fan to fall asleep to. I have a travel fan that I take with me when I travel so I am never without the noise. Even in the freezing cold nights of winter - yep, the fan is on full blast!

5. I love to drive! Sometimes I will just get in the car to go for a drive. I love it because I can have the car all to myself (well, Evelyn is usually with me) and no one is there to interrupt my thoughts. I have the radio off and I just get quiet time to myself to contemplate life. I think about the most random things and most of the time it's the things that I need to improve on, but I love the quietness of a good 30 minute drive all by myself!

6. I have to do the check book. Gordon brings home the bacon and I record it, balance it, spend it, save it...whatever! I have to be in charge though. The weird part is - I HATE DOING IT! But even though over the last 7 years he has asked time and time again to take it off my hands - I just can't let him do it. I have to be in control of the check book!!! No touchy!

I tag Lady Bird (my emmers), Carolina Chocolate, Saucy Chocolate, Jennifer, Jill, Janelle, Jeni and whoever else wants to play!

OK we definatly have differences. I can sleep no matter what, when, where, or with or without him. When I am tired I close my eyes and never look back. Good thing G-Honey is not so different!!

Hi-ME! I miss you. You need to call me back....from forever ago! Did I rub off on you during the "Brownstain" days...with the whole fan thing? Jeff and I are the exact same! The funny thing is...it came up once during a conversation when we were dating and we realized we had the EXACT SAME FAN! Sparks flew and next thing we knew we were getting married!

Wait! I have to catch up on the last 4 months on my blog before I can do this! I can't handle going out of order! (Quirk #1???)

Fun stuff. Thanks for sharing.
