Ginger, Ginger, Ginger . . . I love ya! But, you do know tagging me is going to lead to pay backs?? Ha ha! Kidding! I got tagged by GINGER and I stole the "Tag" off of Andrea's sight! Wanted to make it more exciting that just me typing!! I am just not INTERESTING enough to have 7 WEIRD QUIRKS! Here goes my try! I may be updating!!!
1 - Checking Out at the Grocery Store - When I check out, I arrange all items on the belt according to what they are. For instance, all the veggies must be together, all the fruits together, all canned goods together, all cereal together, all frozen food together, all refridgerated food together, all hygiene together, all misc together! I didn't think it was weird until I have had a few friend while shopping with me notice it and announce it was a little OCD! It just helps me put things away FASTER!! I like organizations on some fronts . .. . others I am a little more laxed!
2 - My CLOSET - My hanging clothes in the closet I have organized! I organize by color! All the white shirts together, all blue, all red, all pink, etc! Really, I think I need to venture out if I have enough shirts of each color to place them in a catagory! So, there is my closet quirk - - I organize via color - - inessence I have a RAINBOW of color!!
3 - Parking - I must PARK in the last place in the parking lot and or in a spot next to a curb as to prevent getting a DING in my car! Yes, I am a DING hater!! So, if you are with me, you are getting LOTS of exercise - - we will park in the very last parking spot at the mall, walmart, etc. I have one spot I park in at Target . . . the only one that isn't the last spot in the parking lot and it is wedged between a planter curb and the cart return - - no chance of a ding on either side!!
4 - I LOVE OREOS!! I have had a love of oreos since I can remember! I love them for breakfast, I love them for lunch, I love them for dinner, I love them for before bed snack! I can attribute all 65 lbs I have gained since high school to my LOVE of OREOS and (lack of excercise since giving birth). OREOS! My favorite COOKIE!! Yummy yum!!
5 - RICE - I could eat rice and rice only for lunch and dinner day in and day out! Aside from OREOS, RICE is my other love affair!! I love minute rice cooked in butter, salt, pepper, onion salt, garlic salt, seasoned salt, and lemon pepper. Then, I love to drizzly WORCHESTERSHIRE sauce on it! YUMMY YUMMY YUMMY!! And as my older brother Cary has once reported, "RICE IS THE ONLY THING KEEPING YOU ALIVE" But, we can't forget the oreo! I do report I LOVE to mix a little Pace Picante sauce in with the worchestershire sauce once in a while!!
6 - SLIPPERS! I love slippers! OH! I am not talking bedroom slippers, I am talking flip flops. They are called SLIPPERS in Hawaii and well . . . . I LOVE THEM! They are the only shoe I wear unless I am going to Church or headed to work. Other than that it can be Jan. 1 or July 4 and I will be wearing slippers! I love them!! I am just barely throwing away a pair I bought back in 1996 for $2.99 from Longs Drug in Kaneohe. I am so sad, but the sole is basically gone and I look rather POOR when I wear them. SLIPPERS - - they are my shoe fetish - - and they are CHEAP!! Yes, I had slippers on the entire time in Idaho! I do say, the frost on the grass in the morning was a good WAKE UP to my slipper adorn feet.
7 - Loner - - yes! I call that a quirk because I once was not a loner. However, I have become such! In my old age . . . ha ha . . . I find myself wanting to be more social but not putting myself out there. Unfortunately, I have been told I come across SNOTTY! Truth, once people get to know me, they realize I am none the such! There are a few reasons for this appearance fo "snotty" I am told the following about myself:
- I carry myself with apparrent confidence
- I am quiet and keep to myself a lot
- I seem to be observing everyone.
In truth, I have learned I am really timid and often wonder why anyone would desire to get to know me. Weird! I also am always afraid to ask people to do things for fear that I am BUGGING THEM in doing so! Don't ask! I just don't ever want to bug people or over step my boundary! So, I over compensate the other way and well KEEP TO MYSELF!! Really, I gotta get over it - - but that is my quirk! I am a loner by fear of bugging people, but truthfully I am social, but I am always concerned about what other think. Ha! Did that make any sense?? I know just shake your head and say, "WHATEVER!"

All right, I'll try to come up with 7 silly quirks of mine, though I think I have about 50 that I could post! I remember your love for Oreos and rice! I remember at BYUH you used to eat so much rice, then coming home that's about all you ever ate! Now I know what to bring to a pot luck where you will be!
Janan,
I just had to let you know that I do exactly the same thing at the grocery store and in my closets. My closet, Scott's closet and all of my girls closets are all color coordinated. It makes life easier on laundry day when it comes time to put the clothes away. And the grocery store, I arrange my basket the same way, so it only seems logical, right?
I had no idea we had so much in common! I organize my clothes too! People in college thought I was like the guy on "Sleeping with the Enemy." And I am a loner too! I always want to be social, but I think the EXACT same thing--I don't want to bother so and so . . . So, I sit back and observe and just like you, people think I am stuck-up. Oh, Janan, Janan. I wish you lived by me!!!! We could be loners together and people would just think we were the stuck-up girls with the cute kids!
