I have been noticing lately how everyone has little quirks that only they have and I think it is funny to hear about how other people are so here are some funny things about me! Keep in mind I am only child so maybe this has a lot to do with my ways!!!
I have never jumped off a diving board.
I never had cable until I moved out of my parents house when I was 21. They got cable the following year!!
I was terrified that my parents might win the publisher's clearing house. Then my dad wouldn't work at church and mom wouldn't teach school. Seriously, I would hide the stamp thing when it came in the mail.
I am pretty much a fearful person..... to list a few:
elevators
wouldn't ride on a boat till I was 18!
any ride at Disney World....at 8 I told my parents to go have fun I'll just wait on this bench.
Mormons-don't' ask long story
lake water
getting water in my ears
My parents didn't listen to the radio in the car so we had the Baptist Hymnal I memorized almost everyone.
I visualize everything....including how people look before I meet them, and what people's houses look before I see them.
I put on my left shoe before I put on my right.
I used to want to be a cashier at Kroger.
I said I would never be a teacher, or go to UALR....i did both
I love the way the scissors sound when they cut the fabric at Hancocks.
I miss the way my grandparents false teeth sounded when they chewed food. HAHA it sounded like a tick tick tick!
I loved sleeping in my parents room...i would write them a note saying can I sleep in your room check yes or no and I would run away.
I never thought I wouldn't make drill team. When I didn't in 8th grade I told my parents...this can't be happening to me. I made it the next year!!
I lied to all my elementary friends telling them I had an air conditioned tree house with a water bed. I wanted to fit in!
In the swimming pool while most people were swimming I was baptizing all my friends.
I thought Jesus was the women who took up the offering in church. My parents said we give money to Jesus and she is who I gave my money to so I thought that was who Jesus was.
I made my mom talk to me in a little girl voice. I called her Little Rebecca!!!
Getting new KEDS shoes was my favorite summer outing.
I would sing hymns to my friends on the playground at school!
I had to count to 100 every day at nap before I went to sleep.
Well, I hope you have enjoyed my little quirks....what are some of yours???

what a fun post! That's halarious that you baptized your friends in the swimming pool! Also, I love the one about the tree house!
A couple of my quirks:
* I order "extra ice" every time I order a beverage
* I swallow gum as soon as I get it "chewed up," like, 5 seconds after I put it in my mouth
* I HAVE to shave my legs, every single day, or i'll go insane
Oh I forgot how much I love you! I can so see you doing all those. I am so glad that we were "late bloomers". I hope Maggie is as innocent as you were aloud to be at home. The sleeping in your parents bed cracks me up! I told my sunday school girls about us being in Jr. High sitting in your parents bed before bed. We all sang the the New Testement song. By the way...Maggie has had a new pair of T-strap keds in every size so far.
So funny!
