10 Things to Hate About Meme

RULES: Each player of this game starts off with 10 weird things/habits about yourself. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 10 weird habits/things as well as state this rule clearly. At the end you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their names.
1. My under garments and socks must match my outfits, or I will be supremely uncomfortable all day long.
2. I will always notice what shoes you are wearing. I notice everyones' shoes. I also pass judgement upon poorly chosen shoes. I am bad.
3. I believe that I can do anything I set my mind to. Especially if I've seen it done. Nine times out of 10, I'm right. Unfortunately, eight times out of 10, it takes me three times as long as I'm expecting.
4. When driving long distances (not riding), I constantly calculate the average speed I'm travelling, based on the highway mileage signs and the elapsed time between the signs. e.g. Madison - 39 miles, and then Madison - 23 miles. Given 16 miles travelled in 20 minutes, I'm going 47 miles per hour. (What? It keeps me awake and lucid.)
5. When taking a shower, I wash my hair, my face, my torso, my arms, my legs and my feet. In that order. Every time. Then I shave whatever I'm shaving that day. Then I spend at least 10 minutes just soaking in the HOT water. Then, I might condition my hair, if I have time & I feel like bothering.
6. I can feel myself falling asleep. I'll be lying in the bed, relaxing and floating, and suddenly it will feel like I'm rolling over a gentle ledge and dropping down into a soft, cushy bed, and most times, I'll even say to myself "ah, there we go." And then I'm gone.
7. I like Donnie Iris. "Ah, Leah" baybees!
8. I've never broken any bones other than my toes, so I've never had anything set, or worn a cast. The only stitches I've ever had were for fileting my thumb while baking my dad's birthday cake. Seven stitches to close up a divot on my left thumb (I'm not counting episiotomy stitches). I was 22 at the time.
9. When I was in college and still underage, I dated bartenders. As long as I was dating a bartender, I didn't have to worry about the quality of my fake ID. After I was legal, I still enjoyed the free drinks.
10. I love being picked up by tall men. Physically picked up. Remember high school dances? I loved finding the tallest guy on the floor and asking him for a slow dance, because it was likely that he'd pick me up at some point during the dance (to relieve his aching back - I'm only 5'2"). I've had a couple of women pick me up too, and I'm not sure it's the same thrill - but I appreciated the effort. :)
Okay, now I have to tag people. Yikes!
