Hump Day Meme

[tiffosis]

Tagged by aelfsiden

A. List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
B. Tag seven people to do the same.
C. Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it."

Quirk: I count the stairs when I am climbing/descending them.
Habit(bad): I undermine myself at work, for fear of doing too well and being given additional responsibilities that I don't want.
Fact: I have bungee jumped.
Habit: I wash my hands. A lot. Even after washing dishes with hot water and soap, I'll wash my hands, because, eww, I touched the sponge. Sometimes, just on the principle that an undetermined amount of time has passed since I last washed them.
Quirk: I read more than one book at time. Not because my attention span is lacking, I just feel that there are too many books to read in this lifetime.
Fact: I was in FFA in high school and competed on the Ornamental Horiculture team. I can make a mean corsage y'all.
Quirk: I get all twitchy if I have no lip balm.

Hmmmm, maybe I should be calling this my OCD meme.

I had to follow the link to FFA, but so cool! Do you have an pics of your entries :D

Somewhere, there are. Actually, there's a whole scrapbook related to my work that year, that I ended up entering into the county fair(1st place!). I was such a nerd!

It's in storage now. =(
And this was long before the days of digital photography.

Maybe it's time for a comeback!

HAHAHA! Oh, yes, you definitely should be calling it your OCD meme. :) You're as bad as I am. Did you know that Joey Ramone was very, very OCD? To the point where they'd finish a show and the rest of the band would be waiting in the bus and he got stuck on the stairs, climbing up and down and counting them until one of the other boys went back inside and got him? Hearing that made me feel a little better about my own idiosyncrasies (I'm a counter and checker in the OCD department).

And lip balm is VERY important! The best one I've found is NATURAL ICE SPF15 (http://www.drugstore.com/qxp15814_333181_sespider/natural_ice/medicated_lip_protectantsunscreen_spf_15_original.htm). That's some awesome stuff. It doesn't feel waxy at all and it stays on really well.

♥!

I didn't know that about him. Wow. That's bad. I remember watching a Dateline or something about people with really bad OCD, and there was this gut that shut himself up in his bathroom and hadn't been out in like a year or something. Scary. Thank God I'm a minor leaguer when it comes to OCD.

I do the checking to. That one's the worst, cause it causes me so much self doubt about if I locked something or turned something off. I sometimes go back and check, but I try not to give into that too often.

I'll give that one a try if I see it. I love the Burt's Bees Lip Balm (http://www.burtsbees.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/ProductDisplay?categoryId=10001&subCategoryId=-108&productId=-88&catalogId=10051&storeId=10001&langId=-1), it's my fav.
