Tagged: 7 Quirks

Here you go, Becky

1. I started recycling my plastic bottles because I only drink Arrowhead water (separate issue) So I felt pretty guilty knowing how many plastic bottles I have used in the past and not recycled. Now, I practically dig through every garbage can (public or private) so I can collect all the plastic bottles and recycle them. Ironically enough, I haven't actually recycled one bottle. Rather, every bottle I have ever collected is my car or in my room. I am a real saint.

2. I get really nervous to answer the phone. (More nervous now that I lost all my contacts because I don't know who is calling me anymore). I usually don't carry my phone with me, but when I do have it I see who is calling, wonder what they want, check the vm, and then muster up some courage to call them back. Hello, my name is Stacie and I have a Phone phobia.

3. I like leaving the lights on, but have an internal struggle about the electric bill and wasted energy. I just like coming home to a light on. I blame this quirk on Grandma Joan. My roommate bought me a really cool night light which is in our bathroom and that seems to help.

4. Apparently, I cackle after I say something funny. I am pretty upset about this one because I didn't know about it until a week ago when someone pointed it out. This person told me that he/she promised never to say anything about it, but couldn't handle listening to my cackle anymore :(

5. When I see a zit or blackhead on myself it has to be eradicated immediately- no exceptions.

6. I love music. I love sharing music. When someone talks when I am showing them a song I, want them to shut up- not because I want them to listen to the music, but because I really want to listen to it. I start to disengage from conversation and tune them out completely. It's true.

7. If I pop one knuckle I have to pop them all. Followed by neck and back pops. Ending with a few shoulder and neck stretches.

I tag Heather, Shannon, Stacey, and Leatha.

Sooo fun! I am so glad I am not the only one with a phone phobia... maybe there is a support group we can join??

Good job Stace! I love reading these things, and they make me laugh!! And I think you should always cackle. Poo on those that disagree.

Marianne said...

I've never noticed the cackle. But I'm sure I would love it! Yes, I have phone phobia too. I make Adam make all phone calls. Thank goodness for email and text messaging.

Leatha said...

I think you should cackle away. I also think I might have an easier time trying to find 7 non-quirky things about me......

Good to hear from you. I use a "special" water bottle because that has been a concern, but thank you for the fyi...
