Tagged . . . For The Very First Time

Since I only started blogging on May 18th, I guess I was forced to jump in with two feet by being tagged. Thanks Sara for allowing me to experience this new phase of blogging. I was requested to list 6 unspectacular quirks of mine and here they are:

1. I don't like to do the dishes without gloves on. It's not that I am protecting my "man hands" (I am not fearful that I will loose the "Gillette Razor" hand modeling account or anything), it's just that I like to use really, really hot water when I wash dishes. Also, I don't like the feel of old food, especially off of someone else's plate, on my delicate digits! Yuck!

2. I can't stand to hear other people chew! This is more than a quirk, it's a pet peeve. I especially don't like the sound of people chewing on ice. It makes me cringe like fingernails on a chalkboard. Also, sadly, children are not exempt from this annoyance. : )

3. I am a little bit of a bleach freak in the kitchen. I don't feel like my counters are clean unless I have used some type of bleach cleanser on them. You would think I am some sort of clean freak . . . but I can assure you I am not.

4. I am not a fan of loud noises. I don't have ligyrophobia like Rachael (which is a fear of loud noises), I just don't like them, especially in continuous form. Loud music is okay on occasion, but even that has to come to an end at some point during the party, doesn't it?

5. I don't like my children being late to school. I know we all work at this, I just take it very, very seriously . . . probably too seriously . . . okay, I can't remember them ever being late . . . yet. There have definitely been some close calls, but I torture my family in order to get them to class on time!

6. Finally, I have to be comfortable in clothes. I am definitely NOT a slave to fashion. You should see how long it takes me to buy a pair of shoes. I have to put them on, walk around the store, take them off, put them back on, walk around again, and on and on it goes.

Well, I did it! I thought it would be hard to figure out 6 quirks about myself, but it came rather easily. Anyway, it is my responsibility to tag 6 unsuspecting bloggers, so consider yourself tagged if you are named Joy Reed, Sheila Vincent, Rick or Michelle Hagins, Nicole Pickard, Chrisy Myers or Colleen Winans. Some of you have been "tagged" before and have not complied, but I'll give it another try. : )
