A Meme

Stolen, with love, from TenseTeacher (thanks, Tense - I was at a loss today…)
1. Link the person who tagged you (done).
2. Mention the rules (uh-huh).
3. Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours.
4. Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged (not gonna happen).
Next, from Merriam-Webster Collegiate.com, the official definition of a “quirk”:
Main Entry: 1. quirk
Pronunciation: kwrk
Function: noun Etymology: origin unknown Date: 1565
1 a : an abrupt twist or curve
b : a peculiar trait : idiosynchrasy
c : accident; vagary
2: a groove separating a bead or other molding from adjoining members
1. I buy flip-top Colegate, and I must bang the toothpaste cap closed on the counter before I’ll put it back in the drawer. I have NO idea why I do this, but I do.
2. I put my moisturizer on before I put gel in my hair. I’d rather have face stuff in my hair than hair stuff on my face.
3. I dislike waffle-style brown ice cream cones. I’d rather have a white cone when I get ice cream out. Oh, and I’ll only get ice cream out that I’d not usually buy to bring into the house - watermelon sherbet or Almond Joy or that kind of thing… unless I’m at a Ben and Jerry’s, in which case it’s always Phish Food.
4. I love pajamas and have several different and very cute pairs, but I never wear the pants to bed. They get all bunched up and make me crazy, so I kick ‘em off as I’m getting in the sheets and sleep in the jammie top and my skivvies.
5. I don’t like bananas or anything, like smoothies, cream pies, or frozen drinks, with bananas as a primary component. Strangely, though, I like banana bread.
6. I’ve never owned a car with an automatic transmission.
Happy Saturday, Everyone!
Now I know that if I am quirky it just means I’m not like everybody else. Quirky = diversity, I guess.
In my early morning fog I shot some hydrocortisone goo onto my toothbrush. That was not good. It was yucky. I now know that it is time for the tubes of goo to live in different places.
Happy Saturday and Sunday. Enjoy the flowers wherever you are.
I thought I was the only #5!!!! Love banana bread, hate bananas!
I must steal this… muahahaha…
I have no idea why they still make manual transmissions for private passenger vehicles.
To tell you the truth, there are a lot of things I don’t know.
I’m with you on #5 (but the banana bread recipe has to be just right–and I have the perfect one), and I’m impressed with #6!!! I was really crabby when I had to give up my stick shift for the automatic transmission!
#6 gives you total rights to turn your nose up at the masses of the rest of us!
I hate bananas, too!!! It’s one of three foods I don’t eat: coffee, bananas, and olives. Anything else is pretty much fair game. Although with my crazy new diet, there are many other things that I am deliberately not eating….
