I've been tagged by my friend, Amy, so I must tell you seven unusual/interesting things about myself. This may be the first time I've admitted some of these things publicly.
1. My husband tells me I have a peculiar way of brushing my teeth. I apparently need to rinse my right hand in the water throughout the tooth-brushing process, giving it a swift rotating movement with a palsy-like hand.
2. I can't eat around dogs or cats. I can't eat if my napkin, cup, or plate has dogs or cats on it. I lose my appetite around household pets.
3. I got a tattoo of a flower on my first date weekend with Mike.
4. I moan unconsciously while eating cereal. My dad said I did this during high school when I would eat breakfast across the table from him every morning. Mike will imitate me with a faint, short moan when I eat cereal next to him now. I don't know I'm doing it. I think they're making the whole thing up--
5. I tap dance and just quit lessons when I moved here.
6. I don't eat eggs. When I was little I wondered what the difference was between the eggs that hatch chicks and the eggs we eat. I heard the eggs we eat were unfertilized eggs; therefore, in my warped mind, I believe we eat chickens' periods. That disgusts me.
7. The "monster" in my bedroom when I was young was E.T. That weird creature was on the floor next to my bed every night when I was little. I slept with the door open in case I needed to make a quick exit and get away from him.

Hi Honey,
I do not like cats---period. I like dogs, but I don't want one. Besides that, I do not want to be tied down to anything. I never buy a greeting card with cats on it.
We have a 93 year old woman here who hums all the time. It isn't really a hum, it is more like a groan. I don't think she knows she is doing it. You can hear her coming down the halls.
I don't believe your idiosyncrasies
are so bad.
There was a man who always thought there was something under his bed and he didn't know what to do about it. A bar tender told him to cut the legs off his bed. Then there wouldn't be a place for anything under his bed. Ha.
I remember your teeth brushing habits from our 1EO days...you also brush with hot water!
That is hilarious! :) Thanks for sparing, although I could come up with a list of 7 super easy. But my life is an open book so I'm sure at least Scott and Heather know most of them thanks to early marriage late night discussions around the Smith table in Bluffton at Christmas time. My most random thing about me though? When I type at the computer, I physically act as if I am talking to that person with facial/head/body movements, smiles, sighs, frowns, even gestures which Eric finds absolutely hilarious. Knowing how animated I am, I'm sure it's funny but have no clue.
I really don't remember the cereal moaning! Maybe I just thought you were REALLY in love with the pb captain crunch or reeses you ate for dinner every night! BTW- I'm with you on the warm water for brushing your teeth, I hate cold water on my teeth. I'm going to go think about my 7.
