Tag #2 quirk:n. 1. A peculiarity of behavior; an idiosyncrasy: "Every man had his own quirks and twists" Harriet Beecher Stowe. 2. An unpredictable or unaccountable act or event; a vagary: a quirk of fate

The Rules: Link the Person who tagged you. Mention rules on your blog. Tell about 6 quirks of yours. Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same. Leave a comment to let them know.

1. I love lists. I usually make a list of all the things I have to do in a day and then I take pleasure in crossing the things off the list. I never go to the grocery store without a list in hand. I make a list of things to pack when I travel. I have a list of goals for the month on my refrigerator right now.

2. I hate whip cream on ice cream!! That really bugs me! I hate when the whip cream melts into the ice cream ruining the delicious ice cream flavor. Whip cream is for pies only!! And don't even get me started on nuts!! I hate nuts on ice cream, in cookies or brownies, and especially in cakes! YUCK!!

3. I am a TERRIBLE singer, but I enjoy it so much. I love to sing loudly around the house, in the car and in the shower. I secretly wish I could be a singer on Broadway.

4. Every night before I go to bed I wash my feet in the bathtub. I cannot go to bed without washing my feet. Believe me I've tried, but I end up laying in bed thinking about dirty, smelly, feet ruining my sheets, until I get up and wash them.

5. I am a neat freak! I don't necessarily like cleaning my house, but I NEED for it to be clean. And no one can clean it better than me. I don't think I could ever have housekeepers because I will just have to re-clean everything. But for being such a clean freak, I hardly ever make my bed, it's the one thing that doesn't bug me.

6. I love chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream. I love to buy a half gallon of it and eat it straight from the carton. But I don't really eat all the ice cream. I enjoy "digging" through it, picking out the cookie dough chunks and only eating those, leaving just the vanilla ice cream. When Spencer goes to have a bowl of ice cream, he gets so mad that there aren't any cookie dough pieces left. I always deny that I did it. He's tried to get me to just buy cookie dough and eat that, but it's just not the same.

O.k. so I have shared some odd things about me, now I want to hear from some Moreno Valley girls: Jill, Tamarah, Holley, Leanne, Shauna, and Janae, I tag you guys!
