quirks

As requested by Camille, here are six or so quirks about me. Not sure if it is safe to divulge this information about myself?

* Opera sing in high pitches when I'm extremely excited, cold, or scared. If you've ever been around me during one of these instances, you know exactly what I am referring to. 
* There will be dancing. My regular rooms are the kitchen & bathroom. To be honest, it is so much more than dancing, I pretend that it is my music video and I go all out. Quite a sight.
* Love to turn plastic water bottles upside down and put my chin in the bottom. It fits perfectly and feels oh so nice.
* Clench my jaw and grind my teeth when I hold babies. This is completely necessary so that I don't squeeze them to death from their cuteness.
* Buy & save clothes. When I get something new, I don't wear it right away. I typically save them for special days or fun plans. Just counted, and in my closet right now there are 12 items of clothing that have never been worn. Apparently I need to make fun plans.
* Name my journals & my cars. 
-Current journal is Abundantly Blessed. After each entry I sign out with the journal name, then my name. Can't believe I am admitting this!
-Here are some past car names...nora, spanky verde, little buddy, stallion, ruby sue, peeker, and russell the love muscle. Current car is not named, and I am taking suggestions.
*One more for good measure. This one is debatable. Personally refuse to believe this is a quirk, but some have informed me otherwise. Dip my fries in chocolate shakes. They belong together.

I loved this blog. It is so fun to hear new things. I laughed out loud when it came to the cars because I have vivid memories of a few of them. Oooh good times.
