I got this idea from my friend Lisa Lewis. I hope she doesn't mind if I take it.... We all have quirks, and I think it is healthy to review them every once in a while ;) So if you read this, I challenge you to list 6 of YOUR quirks and then blog it!
1. I hate bare feet. And when I say "hate", I mean with every fiber of my being. If I happen to sit down next to someone with no socks or shoes on, I move the farthest away I can get without looking like I hate the person. :) I don't dislike the person, I just don't want to accidentally get swiped by their feet. And if I do... well... I have a moment where I have to close my eyes, and take a deep breath. ( I am sure I have to go see a therapist about this) And there have been some billboards with bare feet on them. I have to not look and speed past them. EW! Who thought of this??? You can only imagine what water parks do to me...
2. I always read the last page of a book. ALWAYS. I have to know that it ends well before I read it. I get a lot of flack from friends over this, but I still do it. And probably will do it for the rest of my life.
3. I am VERY crabby when I am hungry or tired. You can ask any of my 3 brothers. There have been many conversations with them that end in "Tara, call me back when you have eaten/slept." (poor guys!)
4. My bed has to be made before I can sleep in it. If I have ran out the door at the beginning of the day with out making the bed, then I have to make it when I get home, or before I get in it at bed time. It is so silly, I know. But... it is what I do.
5. I have 3 types of shampoo & conditioner in my shower at all times. I read some where when I was 14 or 15 that you shouldn't use the same brand of hair products all the time, or your hair will get used to it, and it won't be as effective. And I got a little obsessed with that idea, and I don't use the same brand 2 days in a row.
6. If I get up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom or to get a drink or open a window... I jump onto my bed from about 3 feet away. Why? You ask? I am scared that something is under my bed. Oh yes, I am quite honest about that. I have done it since I was young. And since I still sleep alone there isn't anyone to laugh at me--I still jump. But one day, it will be very funny to someone!

I'm totally with ya on #4 & #5!! I didn't know you had such a problem with bare feet. You probably wouldn't want to come to my house because we don't wear shoes in our house [one of my quirks ;)] and I'm not particularly fond of wearing socks without shoes.
I promise I'll share my quirks soon... still playing catch up!
