Quirky me

I've been tagged! My cousin Marcie tagged me and I'm a little slow at getting around to actually posting this. I'm sure anyone who knows me pretty much knows I have way too many quirks to list...but I will try to keep it to the required 6. :)


Rules: Link the person that tagged you. Mention these rules on your blog. Tell 6 unspectacular quirks of yourself and tag 6 fellow bloggers. Got it? Let's go!

1. I really don't like milk. I never really liked milk growing up and would force myself to eat it with my cereal and drain the milk to the side of the bowl so basically I just got the cereal. Usually my parents forced me to drink the milk telling me I was wasting it. Yuck! Now I eat my cereal with juice and top it off with sliced banana! I love it!
2. I pretty much have to do some form of exercise every day whether it's pilates, running, wlaking, the elipical, whatever it is I have to do something or I feel like a slug. Plus I love the energy and the high it gives me. During the summer I love to to do long runs during the middle of the day. It's great because you get tan and you get a great work out!
3. I love shoes! I used to walk into Target or Forever Young and walk out with a couple pairs of cute shoes at a time. I especially love a good pair of heals! My shoes live in this rubbermaid bin and it's long outgrown it making it very hard to find a matching pair when you are in a hurry!
4. I fall asleep watching movies all the time. Even if I am at someone's house I still struggle to keep my eyes open after the first 10 minutes.-Sometimes I don't even last that long!
5. I love watermelon! I love it probably more than the average person. In fact given the opportunity I would eat watermelon for every meal! Oh and I don't care if I eat the seeds either...doesn't make a difference to me at all.
6. I really like sleeping on the floor. Before I got married I often sleep on the floor next to my nice made up bed. My Dad used to think I would get so in the habit that I wouldn't ever want to sleep in my bed. To prove him wrong I slept in my bed for a month straight! From then on I just went back and forth from the bed to the floor whenever I felt like it. Since I got married though I've had to change my ways. :)

I tag Aria, Kari, Jen, Megan S, Jana, and Amanda!

Michelle we are so much alike. I often prefer the floor to a bed, absolutely love watermelon, never make it through movies awake, don't drink milk, & love to exercise. Even our names are the same. I think we were destined to be friends.

I love watermelon too, I once ate half of a large melon all by myself, I spent most of the next day on the potty! I'm so glad you like to run in the heat, I wish I liked to run at all. Love the bathroom pictures, very cute.

Hey there quirky girl. I didn't know you slept ont the floor. That is pretty weird. (just kiding) It's funny that I actually knew most of that already. I guess when you've been friends with somebody for over twenty years you pick up on those things. (Yes, I said twenty years.) Can you believe that? We are so old.

Aria said...

I've been trying to think of quirks...but I haven't been able to come up with anything super interesting. I'll let you know when I respond to your tag. :)

Megan said...

Ha! The watermelon... I will always think of you when I eat watermelon!I have never met anyone who loves that stuff quite as much as you. And I remember the disinterest in milk from all of our sleepovers we used to have. Country Cousins forever!
