Joe tagged me for this meme. I don’t even think Joe READS this blog. In the old days, we would blame it on the “next blog” tab at blogspot. With the evolution of my non-blogspot blog, I would have to think he vaguely remember my blog name from that time that I commented on his blog about the knitted purse he won during NaPloMoFo. Seriously? Mommy Needs a Cocktail. Best blog name evah.
The rules are as follows:
-
Link to the person that tagged you.
-
Post the rules on your blog.
-
Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.
-
Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs.
-
Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.
Here are my quirks. The Husband was disappointed I had to narrow it down to 6.
-
I don’t like my food to touch. I’m not so crazy that I need those sectional plates. I don’t need that because whatever food is touching becomes its own provisional sectional. I will eat food that is SUPPOSED TO touch. Like lasagna. In fact, I’ll eat lasagna that has been left out all night because by God, I’m not throwing that whole pan out. But I won’t eat mashed potatoes that have wandered into the carrots. That’s just disgusting. And you people that just pile the food in the middle, one food on top of another? Kill me now.
-
I’m really not as balls-y as I appear in real life and on the Internet. Be nasty to me and I’ll probably go home, kick the dog and then cry in the shower for 30 minutes.

I’m a cheap date. GASP!! Horrifying, isn’t it? And when I do drink, it’s most likely an Amstel Light. Or, as my husband likes to call it, Amstel Water. I know. I know. Mommy Needs a Cocktail doesn’t drink every day starting at noon? If I have a two beers a week, odds are good that I have also gone out and gotten a body piercing as well. And pink tips at the ends of my hair.

I wear the same pair of shoes every single day. You read that right. I am fascinated by the bloggers that post pictures of shoes every day for weeks on end. How boring when you can write about your toddler drawing on the ceiling with a brown marker? Just not a shoe girl. In fact, when I was pregnant with The Baby, I wore my Steve Madden sneakers every single day of my pregnancy except for that day I went to the White House. That day I wore my FMP’s so my mom wouldn’t have to read about me in the paper. In retrospect, I should have worn the sneakers. Now I am wearing my Stuart Weitzman boots that I bought at Nordstrom rack for $119 (marked down from $405) with a gift card from Nana. I have worn them everyday since I purchased them in January for my trip to LA. I mistakenly thought that people would actually look at me while I was in LA. At nineteen days of wear and counting, I would say that $6.26 a wear is not too shabby. They look a little odd when I wear them with my pajama bottoms to the store, but whatever…

If I’m in the shower and I’m not washing my hair, I go crazy if even one single strand gets wet. Because it will get instantly dirty and will NEVER dry ever again.

It doesn’t bother me that I have lived in my house for 8 months and the tacky 1987 border is still in my kitchen and my bedroom. Doesn’t bother me one bit. That’s how lazy I am.
ah, who to torture? Amy, cause she is a sucker, Bella, because this is right up her alley. Tvtown, because all he’s doing is directing a silly morning show. Marelle, because she is one QUIRKY mofo. Christine, because, just because. And Izzy, because she has nothing better to do with a toddler and infant twins.
I forgot how horrible it feels to tag people. OK, none of you have to do anything. Really. I’m so sorry.

I could easily have written 2 through 6. Easily. It’s the first one that proves that you are truly “unique” because that one just sort of smacks of weird right there.

I don’t like my food to touch either. Except like tonight, when I made Shepherd’s Pie. Ground beef, peas & carrots sauteed in, mashed potatoes on top. But they were COOKED TOGETHER. So it’s one food.
I like premium liquor. Beer makes me burpy.

tvtown says:
I will pile everything you mentioned on one plate, then pour beer on top of it and eat it all.

Mark says:
To top tvtown, I’ll just pour a “real” beer (something you can’t see through or you can use as a motor oil) into a glass and then just spoon the food into the glass, sort of a beer smoothie with lumps

I am spreading the disease, er, I mean tag, on Minti.
You know, I don’t change much in the houses we’ve lived in either. Who has the time.
I wonder if the couple changed the purple bathroom with silver sponging on the townhouse we sold them.
