Thanks Myra, I needed to magnify my idiosynchrasies and share them with people. Really, like you guys can't tell by just looking at me?
tag rules:
1. link the person who tagged you (Myra Johnson)
2. post these rules
3. tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours
4. tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them
Alright, Here we go!
1. I have a problem with people who use words incorrectly and don't know what the word means. I hate "flustrated", "libid", "irregardless" and "Ir-re-pear-A-bel". Doesn't anyone read Word Power in Reader's Digest anymore? I am not so great with grammar myself, especially punctuation, and I will let you know. I don't use a word unless I know what it means and how to use it in a sentence. I love talking with my friend, Laurie, because she is this way also! I have learned a few things from her.
2. I love my desserts FROZEN! I am not talking just about ice cream. I love cookies, candy, truffles, candy bars, brownies and chocolate bars frozen. You name it, then I would prefer it cold. Don't watch me eat, because I bite into frozen treats. Some of my friends cringe when they see me do this. If I refuse dessert from your table (a rarity... I know), it would be because it is hot or warm. The only things dessert-wise that I love hot is Hot Chocolate and Starbuck's Hot Apple Cider. Mmmmm.
3. I stutter... Not many people are aware of this, because I go to great efforts to control it. It's very slight, but it's there. I stutter the most when I am really tired. It is not always the usual form of st-st-st-stuttering, but words mashed together. Here is an example: I want to say the word happy and glad, it will get combined into glappy... It is not on purpose, and those close to me overlook it, thankfully.
4. I love nicknames. So, Hayden is Tate, Dumpster, and Cutes McCoy. Alyssa becomes Princess, Skinny Minnie, or Lulu. Aaron is Buddy, Friend, and Slobber-dog. I would tell you Curt's, but I shouldn't swear and neither should you... Just Kidding. His name is Toots, Sweatheart (when I am mad), Honey and Turdis (another mad). Don't ask me where they came from, they just are.
5. I love to watch "Sister-Kisser" movies. I mean the kind of movies that men hate. The kind that you are nearly sobbing at the end of. I will be buying The Bucket List, because I cried at the end. I own Titanic, because I cried. If I cried, it was a great movie and it recieved a slobbery, cried on "Shellee award". If I laugh the whole way through, and then cry at the finale, it becomes own-worthy.
6. I attract mosquitos. I'm not talking just about a few. If you have seen Lilo and Stitch, there is a scene where mosquitos land on Pleakley. He thinks they tickle and then, WHAM, they start stinging him. Well, I don't think they tickle. Whenever there is an event outside, I have to bathe in bug repellent. I often have more than 5 bites on my legs if I have been outdoors during the evening. It's not a fun quirk, but it is one that I live with. Curt calls me Pleakley sometimes.
So, I hope you have learned a little more about me, and now understand me a bit better.
So, now... I tag, Marisa, Vandee, Karla, Brooke, Geniel and Missy Johnston.

i just heard about this and am dying to know if it works...spray Listerine mouthwash (from a spray bottle) on yourself and it will repel mosquitoes. if you try it, tell me if it works! also, i heard mosquitoes like you if you eat bananas because it'll make your skin sweet...who knows if it's true, but i wouldn't eat bananas for a whole week before girl's camp b/c of it.
I totally have the same stuttering issue! For reals. In fact, when I was 14 and invited the boy I had the hugest crush on (Kelvin Kinsel) to hang out at my house with my friends... Well, we were having a water balloon fight and for whatever reason I called somebody a "deef butt". I have no idea what I meant to say, but that wasn't it. And then, forever, I got teased about it. I almost died. In front of the guy I like!
Now I have learned that when I am stressed or feel like whatever I am going to say isn't going to be well received, I tend to stutter. Word smooshing as usual, but sometimes, the st-st-stutter sort. I don't know where it came from. It's totally new. Trippy.
Hi there, how everything? Were doing good.
Does it also annoy you when people say "I changed my life. I did a complete 360." That drives Robert nuts. I think it's funny (:
Myra, I will try that, anything helps.
Karla, I hate that I stutter, I try to be quiet if I know that I am having a tired day.
Kimmie, That's funny... I never really thought about it.
The one that Curt and I get bothered by is 24/7. Can't they just say "everyday"? Do I really need a time reference?
Wre doing fine. Were asking for 115, ooo but a house in another area is 108. We have a good feeling it will sell. It just trying to stay positive and keep prayin. ya those puppies are cute but wre weaning them which is a pain but its ok, done it before
