Only Six?

I was kind of tagged by my niece, Megan, to post six of my quirks. My response? It is going to be hard to limit it to only six. I am officially tagging my sister Jody, because she has as many quirks as I do! And if Lynn Whitely ever gets a blog -- I would sure love to read her top six! Actually Lynn, you can leave them in the comments!

So what do you think of the photo? I got this one when I entered "Quirky Person" into Google images. Ah, the incredible power of the internet...whoops, back to the task at hand...

1. I seem to have a compulsive disorder to only clean/put away what someone just seconds before took out for a purpose. For example, my counter will be entirely cluttered...my husband pulls a glass out of the cupboard...he then goes to the refrigerator to retrieve something to drink...in the two seconds that takes, I arrive on the scene and absent mindedly put his glass in the dishwasher leaving intact all the items that should have been put away. This scene is replayed on a daily basis.

2. I tend to ask questions and then not listen for the answers. Then I ask the same question and again I fail to listen for the answer.
*
3. I play Spider on the easy level because it makes me happy when I win. If I lose, I reset my stats so I can pretend I always win.
*
4. My husband insists that I will dance around the house, putting off making a trip to the little girls room, only to decide I urgently need to use it just as soon as someone else is occupying it.
*
5. My husband also insists that when doing something complicated and confusing on the computer, I will click on options without reading them and then wonder what I've done.
*
6. My husband further points out that I am hopeless about giving and taking directions that involve "left and right". Apparently he finds it confusing when I say, "Turn right" as I point left -- go figure!
*
As you can tell, my husband was very helpful bringing to mind a few of my quirks. I would write more, but right now I need to chat with him about HIS quirks!
