Alright already!!!

Okay - I have been officially tagged twice -by both Misty and A'Lisha. So I will go ahead and tell you 8 quirks about me (this is really hard by the way - requires too much thinking!!)

1) I hate answering the phone at work. I don't know why - but I always have. Not only do I not answer the phone very often, I don't check my messages very much either. Stupid - I know. But I can't help it. I even tell everyone - if you call me you may not get an answer for a couple of weeks - email or IM is always your best option.

2) Cooked carrots - disgusting!!! I love raw carrots - but cooked ones are so gross. People always say they taste the same - but really they don't. I also think it is a texture thing - they are rather smooshy and frankly they smell bad.

3) Watching re-runs of "Without of Trace." I have to say that this is one of my new favorite shows - and I only watch it at 10:00 at night. Hello - it makes me stay up way to late -but I can't help it. I have decided though that watching this show at night helps me to unwind - from my very busy days. Also, I know this show is on during prime time as well - but it is just not the same for me. I am addicted to the late night showings on TBS - oh well what can I say.

4) KSL.com - I love KSL.com. Not only can you get the news - but I love to look at the classifieds. I do that almost daily - though I have only bought one thing in over 2 years from the classifieds. Pretty funny - I am not exactly sure why this is fun for me - but it is not a day without browsing the KSL classifieds.

5) I love looking at houses on the MLS - and no, we are not looking at moving yet. This has become quite a passion for me. I can probably tell you what areas have the most houses for sale, what the average is in the area and what schools your kids would go to. I have way too much fun doing this - and you never know when the information may come in handy.

6)I hate opening mail. When I get home, I will look in the mailbox to see what is there, and if nothing good is there - or there is a bill or something - I leave it in the mailbox for my husband. (I just wrote that and realized how dumb that is - now that is quirky!) I have nothing else to say about this.

7) I love phone games. I have Suduko and Mahjong on my cell phone and play them whenever I am in a meeting - because it is the only way I can pay attention. I think part of my son's ADHD problems come from me - I swear I am getting more attention deficit the older I get. I can't just sit somewhere - I have to be doing something - always!!

8) My feelings get hurt way to easy. I hate that about myself. I take things too personal and than I feel bad if things don't happen the way I think they should. This is something that I try to work on and can usually mask pretty well - but it is very hard for me to not get upset if things happen - even if they were unintentional.

Hey, I'm glad you did your quirks! It was fun to learn new stuff about you. I had no idea you hated cooked carrots - I thought you liked all types of veggies. I guess you learn something new every day :)I'm like you - I get my feeling hurt easily too. I'm sorry if I have hurt your feelings in any way - it definitely was not intentional. You are a wonderful person. Love, Misty
