Thimble Thoughts: Tagged!

Tagged!

I was tagged by Susan from By Grace to do a Meme. I'm sure I've done this one before, but I'll play again. After all, there are many crazy things about me I can share with you.

Here are the rules:
1) Link to the person who tagged me.
2) Mention the rules.
3) Tell six quirky yet boring, unspectacular details about myself.
4) Tag 6 other blogger´s by linking to them.
5) Go to each person’s blog and leave a comment that lets them know they’ve been tagged

*Well, y'all know I have this thing about numbers. Especially even numbers. I particularly enjoy numbers by twos and fours. But when I eat those little goldfish crackers, I have to do them in increments of ten. If I pull out more than ten I put how many I am over back in the bag/box. If there is an odd number of them left in the bag/box, I won't eat them.

*I get aggravated when the throw pillows on the couch are not where they are supposed to be. Putting them in their proper place is the last thing I do before going to bed.

*I DESPISE burping. I mean, I know we all do it. It is a natural way of expelling gas from the body. BUT, EXCUSE YOURSELF FROM MY PRESENCE. And when children do it, especially older children who should definitely know better, I have certain thoughts toward their parents. What is wrong with teaching our children manners? Hello, people!

*When someone says something to me I usually spell out the sentence in my head and wiggle my toes with each letter. I could expound on this, really, but I'll spare you every detail of this crazy habit.

*When you visit our home, I like for our entire family to stand on the porch and wave goodbye to you like the Beverly Hillbillies until you are out of sight.

*I do not like to talk on the phone for idle chit chat. I would much rather communicate through emails or IMs. The sound of the phone makes me cringe (except this week while my kids are gone.) I LOVE my caller ID so I can screen my calls. Yes, I know people hate to hear my machine. And yet...they still call.

Who I am tagging:
Susan from Boogers in the Woodpile
Amy from Music and Notes
Lisa from A Place to Land
Tiffany from Mrs. Creative
Dana from The Simple Gift James 117
Katie from Turner's Talent
Starla from Anything and Everything
Carla from Three Men and a Lady...and a Poodle

Yes, I know I tagged eight people, but sometimes I'm a rebel.

Have you ever been accused of being OCD? :) I think disorders are very overrated. Take restless leg syndrome for instance. Because someone can't keep one leg still in church, doesn't mean they need to be psychoanalyzed and drugged up just to appease the brain gods of the psychology world.

It's amazing how our society can develop a disorder for anything, as if any one person on earth were perfect enough NOT to have a disease, disorder, mental dysfunction of some sort. My 2 cents worth, but it was interesting how 10 gold fish was your limit :) Personally, I like the new Busy candies (the ones with all the W's on them) ;)

This was good! : ) I'm the same way about the pillows on the couch--and the ones on my bed.

Hugs!

Well besides numbers we have two other things in common. I don't like burping or talking on the phone.
To answer your question about the Pepsi cans. Pepsi was doing this big Star Wars thing; I think they had remade a movie or something like that. So I saw that Pepsi was coming out with different cans, so every time I would get a new can, I would just put it up. One time I had got a can from school and while I was coming home on the bus somebody tried to buy the can off of me because they wanted something to drink, I wouldn't sell it. LOL!!!!

If you despise burping, be glad you don't live in this household! LOL When other people are around, my dh and boys are polite, but when it's just us . . . well, it's not pretty.

I do something similar to the spelling thing in your head. I see words all the time, and ever since I learned to type I've also typed them out sometimes in my head. For all that, I don't type fast enough to be considered a good typist, though. But I AM a very good speller!

I'm going to do this I just wanted to let you know!! I just have to be able to sit down and do it. With having no internet until Friday makes it a little hard. I will do it one day when Emma is sleeping!
