Blankety-blank

Adrienne filled this out, and since I need something to distract me, I’ll give it a whirl.

1. The first thing I do in the morning is try to get out of bed without having a contraction.

2. Every night before bed I massage the Palmer’s lotion onto my tummy, brush my teeth and take an Ambien. Then Tim and I talk until one of us falls asleep; usually Tim goes first, and I’ll read until my eyes droop.

3. My favorite thing to do when I’m having a bad day is read of my favorite books for the hundredth time, or go in the kitchen and tinker until I come up with something tasty.

4. Something that makes me cringe is having to take my shoes off in other people’s houses, and not by choice.  It’s always made me uncomfortable; there’s something too personal about walking around barefoot , like forced intimacy or something. Whenever it comes up it actually makes me go into slight panic mode – weird, I know. Plus, there’s always someone (usually someone I don’t know very well) with nasty feet or dirty socks. GROSS. Let’s just say I could never move to Japan. 

5. Social situations are fun when it involves the few select people in the world that I actually like, LOL. Just kidding!  I do like to meet new people, but only if they are intelligent and interesting – and they often aren’t, so things can get awkward really fast for me.

6. I like to collect books. I have a lot of shoes, too.

7. Weekends are for brunches with Tim, cleaning up the house and visiting with lovely people.

    Ypur number 4 made me laugh out loud because I am the SAME way!

    Hope you have a great weekend!

    haha I was thinking something along the lines of #4 when I was visiting you last week! I don’t like to be barefoot (I’m OK with socks) in other peoples’ houses, and my flats are starting to get stinky, which meant I was having major paranoia about stinky feet, so I was VERY happy you didn’t insist I remove my shoes. So funny!

    Ah! I am the opposite. I HATE the thought of all the crap you walk around in on the street being dragged across my carpet and floors. The outdoors should STAY outdoors, it is so gross! I sit on the floor and Belle crawls and eats off the floor, I don’t want dirt and crap from the street all over them. Plus it makes the carpet dirty and stained.

      sorry, i didn’t mean to make that sound so mean, i just don’t see how no shoes is better than yucky shoes. oh well, to each his own i guess.

    • Ha ha! We have Chloe and Stabler, so we have to vacuum a lot anyway, I guess I’m used to it. And, I’d rather have Marco eat a piece of dirt than eat something that has potential foot fungus on it. *SHUDDER*.

      LOL it’s funny to hear about everyone’s neuroses. We’ve all got our ‘things’.
