Unspectacular Quirk #1. I clean when I am upset (or at someone else's house). Joe always knows when he has made me REALLY mad when I start cleaning the house. I think it is something to keep my hands occupied (rather than popping him upside the head). If I'm at your house and helping you clean, no worries. I like to do that! If you're at my house and I go into crazy cleaning frenzy, it is time to duck and cover.

Unspectacular Quirk #2. I hate doing my hair. Absolutely HATE it! That is why you always see me in pig tails (when short), a pony tail (mid-length) or braids (when long). I love it flat ironed and looking all pretty, but I just can't bring myself to spend the time when I could be sleeping!

Unspectacular Quirk #3. I like falling asleep to Fantasia or Fantasia 2000. I have a little portable DVD player sitting on my nightstand. Every night, after Joe tucks me in, he turns on my movie so I can fall asleep. I don't usually make it past the first number (unless I jump ahead before putting my head on my pillow), but I know when he turns it off!

Unspectacular Quirk #4. My brain never shuts off (which is probably why I developed Quirk #3). I can't not think about stuff. At night, in the morning, while I'm driving. My brain is constantly going 1 million miles per hour. This morning at 5am I was thinking about my sprinklers and the most efficient way I could install the remaining systems, which led me to thinking about installing a fence in the next few years, which led me to mentally move some of my sprinkler heads to accommodate for the future fence and perhaps a flower bed on the north side of the lawn. I almost had myself dressed and out the door to start digging when Joe told me to get back in bed. I couldn't fall back asleep because of my energizer-brain so instead I spent the next 2 hours contemplating sprinklers, work, life, kids, puppies, and more.

Unspectacular Quirk #5. I LOVE making charts & lists. Anything that I can make "pretty" in Word or Excel. Chore charts, gift charts, shopping lists, to-dos, birthday lists, "ways to improve myself," etc. Anything that can be stuffed into a chart or a list, I am there. Need a list or a chart or a spreadsheet? Call me! I would LOVE to help!

Unspectacular Quirk #6. I like to move. I would almost say I need to move. It used to be every year I'd get the itch, but since I married Joe he has stretched me to two. He's working at making it longer. But seriously, every few years I have this burning need to pack everything up and go somewhere new. So far it's just been different homes in Davis County. But I would seriously love to move outta state and even out of the country! I think I was a gypsy in a previous life!

I tag Marla Burns, Amy Lund, Daisy Reyes, Naomi Wolf, Brenda Smith, and Suzanne Smith. Maybe this will help Suzanne actually blog! hehe
