Heidi's Hell Hole

 

I haven’t spun in a while, but when I saw Jen’s new topic: quirks, how could I resist? I’ve got so many it’s unreal. Here’s a running list, that I’m sure the Old Wolf, (who has yet to blog for me) will add onto.

 

1)       I put nondairy creamer in my mug, then coffee. Stirring takes too much time.

2)       In the shower, I wash my face first, then hair, then my body, then I shave my legs. Every single time, there is no deviation from this. I hate the feel of my oily face in the morning, and I do my hair second because if there’s less water in it, it takes less time to dry. (Right?)

3)       When I curl my hair, I start at the right side and work my way around to the left.

4)       I coordinate my scents for the day. Citrus body wash = citrus body spray, and so on and so forth. I’m anal about that, I don’t know why.

5)       When I do my makeup (if I do) it’s concealer, foundation, blush, highlighting shimmer, base shadow, eyeliner, and mascara. Again, something I never deviate from. Depending on the look I’m going for will determine how I do my eyes. I know, I’m weird.

6)       If I don’t have covers or something against my back when I’m asleep I feel vulnerable and I can’t sleep. At all. Because you know, mutant ninjas will attack me in my sleep and knife me in the back.

7)       When I boot up my PC at work, I boot up the Web, Messenger, e-Mail, then my system. If the icons aren’t right in my Start bar, I’ll shut down everything until they are.

8)       I absolutely CANNOT work at all unless I have music in the background. Actually, there’s not much I can’t due without music.

9)       I eat one thing at a time. I can’t take a bite of something, and then move onto something else. Maybe I’m autistic.

10)   When I check my gossip sites, I go to The Superficial first, Perez Hilton, and TMZ.

11)   I am the Grammar-Spelling-Pronunciation Nazi. It irritates the hell out of me if someone doesn’t spell something correctly, if their punctuation is off, or if they can’t pronounce something right. Repeatedly. Bryan.  

 

So, yeah, there’s a few of them. I’m sure there’s more that I can’t think of right now. Feel free to add more. Love you, Internets!

Creamer before coffee? Check! Less to clean, and I find it mixes more thoroughly. Any part of my body (save my head) that is left uncovered feels vulnerable. I've been like this since I was a kid and thought the alligator under my bed (Living in Florida, it's entirely possible) would bite off any appendage I stupidly left bare. Love your quirks and share a good portion of them! (Same exact thing with the shower. Hair first, so it can drip dry while I work on the rest of the routine.) You're linked!

OMG...how old are you? Am I really your mother? If not, you MUST be related to me.

YOU MUST.

With me, it's my feet. I can't sleep with my feet uncovered, because the monster that resides under my bed will surely reach up and grab it and drag me down.

How do you feel about a new reader who accidently hits submit before she types her comment?

Fun spin. I do cream before coffee too, but did not realize it was a quirk. I just don't like messing up a spoon first thing in the morning.

I gasped out loud when I read the quirk about the blankets on your back! I'm the SAME! In fact, I have to start out in bed with my back to the wall (as opposed to the bedroom door, which would make me feel very, like you said, vulnerable). I usually flip during the night, but only after my conscious mind slips into the background.

Good spin!

I have the same first seven quirks as you. Those Night Ninjas are scary stuff. Great spin!

ooooooh. If I hear a noise out in the living room at night I immediately put my hands under the blanket. You know, in case somebody comes to grab them or something.

I'm so glad it's not just me who's afraid of the dark. I hide all of the knives before I go to bed because you never know- the mutant ninjas might come unprepared.
