Teresa McFayden's Quirky Assignment

The fantabulous TMcF tagged her readers to list seven quirky things about themselves. Being one who faithfully peruses her minutia on a daily basis, I had to comply. Here are the rules…. each player starts with 7 random facts/habits about themselves. People who are tagged need to write on their own blog about their seven things, as well as these rules. At the end of your blog, you need to choose 7 people to get tagged and list their names. Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them that they have been tagged and to read your blog!

I don't take ice in my soft drinks ever (hate anything diluted.)

I don't like my food to touch...think borders between the rice and chicken. You can guess that it follows that I eat each section separately in their entirety before moving to the next section.

I have no patience for poor service. I expect to get as good as I give, and can be quite nasty. Really.

I can't bring myself to drink tap water.

I engage strangers in random conversation practically wherever I go, much to the chagrin of my companions, unless I'm with my sister, who happily joins in on the banter.

I can't stand having anything on my hands. This is really odd, as I used to be a professional cake decorator, and somehow managed to rarely get the icing on myself. Can you imagine how I would freak out when the airbrush color would occasionally get on my fingers? Ew!

I totally immerse myself in the moment, in an obsessive/compulsive kind of way. Can't help it. On the flip side of that, I can completely shove unpleasant thoughts right out of my head (talk about denial!)

Now that that's done, who do I tag to reveal their nasty little issues?
Mary
Tanja
Tonja
Michelle
Amy
Susan
Amber Dawn

Later this evening: Harmony told me that I should have written about how I like to nuke my ice cream until it's all melty, don't stand up for myself enough, trust too easily, believe that mostly everyone is good, give everything away for free, but don't get rid of the one thing I should get rid of. She's a very good friend (and a little bit too right sometimes.)

My first official tag!
Hmmm.... quirkiness.
*smiles*
This should be interesting!

I enjoyed reading about your little secrets!
You are a lot of fun to read about Suzi.

Any friend brave enough to tell you that you don't get rid of the one thing you should get rid of is the best friend to have. You lucky girl!

thanks for the tag Suzi! Oh I loved reading your list...the one that jumped out at me is about your food not touching each other and eating them separately, my friends lovenly pick on me because I do that but now its nice to know you do it too, LOL
I will go work on my list now. :-)
