Tony Tagged Me

The rules:
*Link to the person that tagged you.
*Post the rules on your blog.
*Share six interesting things/habits/quirks about yourself - anything that comes to mind.
*Tag six people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs ... people you would like to know things about.
*Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.

(1) I don't know that I have any habits, I feel like I must have the opposite of an addictive personality. The only real habits I can even think of include brushing my teeth three times a day and showering. I really hate routines and would probably resort to sticking a fork in my eye if I ever felt obligated to do repetitive things, which by the way is what I think a habit is (a feeling of obligation to do something repetitive). So, to recap, I despise routines, repetition and obligations. That sounds a bit like a diagnosis for something in the DSM-IV.

(2) I am not a picky eater, except for when it comes to lasagna. When I was in the fifth grade my mom made lasagna like she tended to do about once a month but this one time my entire family became violently ill after eating it. I'm talking partially digested noodles and red sauce all over our white carpeted, white walled suburban paradise. The next day she realized that the ricotta cheese had been expired for two years. I can't even look at lasagna anymore. I also do not eat pizza unless my blood sugar is low enough to risk fainting.

(3) I can't stand chipped nail polish on myself or any other person. I have refused to hire job applicants based solely on the state of their nails.

(4) Ok, so I lied about the habit thing. I am fastidiously committed to eyebrow maintenance and carry tweezers at all times like an asthma sufferer carries an inhaler. Unfortunatley, my mysterious ethnic heritage has provided me with some out of control eyebrows that must be attended to on a daily basis. You might think Brooke Shields has an issue, but put me on a desert island sans tweezers for a week and I'm almost certain I'd look like a werewolf.

(5) I hate leaving voicemail messages mostly because I hate the sound of my voice outside of my head.

(6) Wow, this totally turned into a list of things I hate/detest/despise. I am not normally such a negative person. I am generally an optimist, really! Does this count as item #6?

I tag anyone who would like to respond because I am really lazy.

About Me

I like run-on sentences and also syntax based loosely on the approved constructs of grammar.
