I CAN BE SORTA STRANGE

I got tagged by Dan Lilly. Unofficially, I present to you six quirks or habits I can’t seem to break from.

1. When I sit on the toilet, I always sit angled 45 degrees to the left instead of facing directly forward. This is not true, however, of public toilets.

2. When I adjust the volume on a car stereo, I can only increase or decrease it in increments of five volume points. I simply cannot listen to anything at a volume level of 12, for example.

3. I keep the food on my plate in separate piles and will never let them mix. I’ll also never scoop from two different piles in the same bite.

4. Wearing a mis-matched bra and panty set is an impossibility – even if I’m the only one that knows my little secret that day.

5. When erasing a blackboard, whiteboard or anything similar, even the tinniest streak left behind will drive me absolutely NUTS!

6. I will park and re-park the car until I’ve got it completely straight in the spot.

That said, I now tag Tony, Rebecca, Raul, my Mom, Krista and Tania.

I never wear a mis-matched bra and panty set either…it just seems wrong.

Pamela Dawn

I always do and my husband makes fun of me…I think it’s mostly because I can’t find good fitting bras. So the ones that are comfortable and that I like to wear don’t have panties to go with!

I don’t think that I own a matching bra & panty set. Maybe Santa Yule will be so kind this year to give me one!

Eva

Matching bra & panty set?? OMG, I am soooo not girly-girl. :-p

PatZ

why 45 degrees?

Amy

A good tip about matching bra and panties is to buy two of the panties.

Gwen

I do the same volume thing as you do but for my TV! It’s set to 10 for regular, 5 if I want to “test” my hearing, and 15 if I’m cooking in the kitchen and want to keep hearing it!

Yeah, I can relate with your OCD-ness.

I especially liked number one and I wonder why public toilets don’t apply. Funny the little patterns we end up making for ourselves.
