What are your idiosynchrasies?

scaeagles · 07-17-2006, 12:07 PM

You know, those little quirks you have that make you unique?

When I make a sandwich, there must be balance. For example, I cannot have a glob of mustard on one part and a barren portion on another.

I flip my pillow at night to find a cool spot.

I separate my trail mix into pleasing taste combinations. For example, I can't stand raisins and chocolate together, so they must be separated and not in the same bite.

What idiosynchrasies do you have that help make you who you are?

I love Ovaltine in my coffee

I will eat colored candies in groups of color - all green M&M's first, then blue, then red, etc.

When I'm doing a repetitive task or am general idle, I will randomly count things.

Tori thinks I'm a clean freak, but I really am not. I just wage a losing battle against entropy on a daily basis. I also cannot stand it if pictures aren't straight- I've been known to go around other people's homes adjusting their wall art. Hanging stuff Gallery style was a major breakthrough for me, but it still has to be linear and organised on some level. I also obsess about leaving things plugged in- anytime I go anywhere I have to go around unplugging things so our house doesn't blow up.

Besides checking for new LoT messages every 10min you mean?

Chewing on ice.
Running Yellows

Chewing on ice is a sign of a vitamin deficiency- B vitamin, I think. I used to do the same years ago, until my doc caught on and put me on mega-vitamins. The compulsion just went away on it's own.

Oh great, so now I have a complex. Oh well. At least there is a support group out there for me...

No, its a sign that one isn't getting enough sex.

I love grilled onions but cannot stand their raw counterpart in almost all foods, except mexican for some reason, and occasionally salads.

I very much prefer to enter Disneyland through the tunnel closest to city hall. I've been entering on the right side since I can remember and have no desire to change.

I want hot foods hot and cold foods cold. I get cranky when this doesn't occur.

I like mustard. I like mayo. Mixing them is an abomination.

Oh, and I'm a master pillow flipper as well, scaeagles.

Um, this makes no sense. If you go enter through the tunnel closest to City Hall, that is the tunnel on the LEFT as you go in.

It was all a plot to confuse you. Yeah, that's it.

Actually, it is a jumbled mess. I was cutting and pasting part of it while talking on the phone and let's just say that I don't multitask well.

I have to go through the tunnel on the right, the one furthest from city hall.
