4 Quirky Things About Me

Well, Elusive, I find at least 2 of those things singularly odd! I guess my 4 would be: I've never liked eating or drinking from plastic containers; I can walk into a room in my apartment and immediately tell if anything has been moved; I won't walk barefoot ANYWHERE; and I used to cut my hair whenever I was unhappy with myself. So now you know my terrible secrets.

We all have our quirks. I won't drink soda out of a can, but I will drink it out of a plastic bottle, but my favorite is in a glass glass on ice. I love ketchup as a condiment, tomato sauce, pizza,etc. but I hate tomatoes. Can you figure that out? I can't stand those foam coolers, when they bounce around and make thats squeeking noise. When i put on sweaters and other pull over the head clothing I have to stretch the neck out so I don't feel claustrophobic. Boy when I read this i feel really quirky. Oh well

I cant think of anything. LOL I am weird but right now I cant think of what they are. LOL Yours are funny though.

Hello Elusive Butterfly. 1. I also do the same when I go to use the bathroom as I don't want to make myself wide awake after using the bathroom. Otherwise it would be difficult for me to fall asleep again. 2. I can bear cool water for shower, but I can not bear cold water for shower in the cold weather. I will be shivering with cold. 3. I can stay online till two o'clock, but I can not suffer from getting up as early as six thirty on the morning of winter. 4. I can stay working in a quiet place, but I cannot concentrate on my work in a noisy atmosphere and my work would be inefficient under such circumstances.

Hi Elusive, I have to have a light on no matter what...I am afraid of the dark...I am very independent but at the same time very dependent on my husband...I am a constant backseat driver, even in the front seat...I like onion sandwiches...

What an imaginative & fun topic!!! It will give me great pleasure to respond! I can't wear hats because they make my brain feel constricted, but I keep buying them anyway. I've got a beautiful hot pink straw hat and I periodically change the scarf around it but I never wear it. I vow to wear it to the horse races one day though, because it's so big and floppy...even if I ultimately take it off and just carry it around. I have a favorite tree and I like to stand with my back against it and pretend that my leafy branches are drawing light energy in and sending it down to my roots, and that my roots are drawing earth energy in and sending it up to my leaves. I wear combat boots with everything. I'm 55 years old (I think) and Pippi Longstocking and Nancy Drew are still my heroins. I have a mannequin and I dress her up in all the clothes I have that I love but can't wear... like the 130 dollar handmade corset in size 32B (I wear a size 38C). What I was thinking when I bought it I can't even remember, although it had to have been something really stupid & unrealistic. Yeah, I know, that's 5. And there are even more than that, but I'll stop there.

I, too try to walk in the dark to go to the bathroom for the same reason, but I don't keep my eyes shut. I put my hands out in front of me and it keeps me from running into things with my nose. I'm 5 foot 3 inches tall and have people over 6 feet tall who wouldn't tangle with me for love or money because they think I'm tougher than they are. I rock without a rocking chair. I'd like to enter a rocking chair contest because I rock contantly, I should be able to beat everyone. I can eat marshmallow fluff by the spoonsful straight from the jar, but can't do that for anything else (like jelly, jam, etc.).
