    I've been trying to find my quirks and had concluded that I'm just a bit boring. Then, voila! It occurred to me... I must lick the foam from my latte before I drink it. There is also the perfect proportion of foam to liquid that must exist. When it's right, I'm extra pleased.

    When I'm done drinking a can of beer I have to squeeze it in the direction of the can mouth.

    this is pretty funny to read what other people do that is "weird".

    i have the same shower routine every time - wash face, shampoo, conditioner (leave it in), shave, wash out conditioner, body wash, done.

    every time i open a canned beverage, i turn the tab sideways.

    i have severe sandwich making ocd. they must be made neatly and have perfect proportions. cant have too much mayo on one side. it must be clean and even. good meat to cheese ratios. i have a really hard time watching someone make a sandwich for me. if i get a burger or grinder from somewhere i have to take it apart and put it back together make everything even (tomatoes, lettuce, pickles). can't have all those pickles stacked on one another. they must cover the surface... i want each bite to be the same.

    thats all i got for now.

    Lol. I am the same about making sandwiches. They must be PERFECT. It makes it so that going to Subway is a real mental exercise while I'm trying not to dictate to the sandwich artist what to do, and criticize what they're doing wrong, hahaha.

    When people say things about losing or gaining daylight with regards to the time change I just want to yell 'nothing is lost or gained, science bitches check it out'
    Anything you lose from being honest
    You never really had to begin with.


    Sometimes it's not the song that makes you emotional it's the people and things that come to your mind when you hear it.

    When I was in college, I worked at Mcdonald's. We had a saying for properly putting pickles on sandwiches... Make friends, not lovers.

    I have to cook my food by scent.. If my nose is stuffed, I won't cook! ( probably a good thing cause that usually means I am not well). If I can't smell anything I won't eat.. Stupid I know.. I won't walk on the left side of the street, even though you are supposed to walk against traffic, but that outs traffic on my blindside, as does walking on the right side.. Go figure! I won't close my eyes at a live show, cause I'm afraid I'll miss something.. And I can't sleep
    In complete silence. Believe it or not I can hear the frequency between the DVD player and the TV. If the power goes out at night, I wake up! That's if I sleep at all.. I am a very strange person, so I could go on forever!

    So you can't walk on the right side or the left side of the street? I guess you don't get out much, then.

    Lol no. I DO walk on the right side of the road.. But the traffic is behind me, and thus I am still blinded to it. But it freaks me out, to have cars pass on my blind side.. So I avoid walking on the left side of the street when I am able.

    I hate back tracking. If I have errands to run, I plan out the trip precisely so that I travel in the most efficient manner. It actually makes my blood pressure rise if I'm not in control of a trip and I feel things could have been planned better. My problem, I know. :).
    Don't come closer or I'll have to go
