Long Live the Quirks


Quirks are fun and I figured that they have to live forever. I think they are so good that they are going to be my first blog so Enjoy!

-I always brush my teeth the same way. I start with the bottom left move to the top left and then to the top right and then the bottom right. I conclude with the middle and can’t forget about the tongue.


-If you are a passenger in my car, your seat has to be in the right location, meaning out of sight with the corner of my eye. The last thing that I want to do is be able to see you when I’m driving.


-I feel that if I miss the beginning of a sporting event, say a Bucs game, and then they lose, it’s my fault. So all I ask is to be there for the opening kickoff or the first pitch.


-I have a fascination with airports. I would be more than happy to work at an airport whether at the ticketing booth or at the Burger King or at the duty free shop. I don’t know why but I like airports.


-I cannot and will not eat mashed potatoes. I hate them. However, I love French fries, baked potatoes and hash browns.


-Immediately after I open the car door to get out, I lock the doors. Oftentimes this isn’t good for the passengers.


-When I go to the beach, I always have to put suntan lotion on my face before I leave in fear that if I did it in public, I may miss a spot. Obviously it wouldn’t be a good thing to walk around with a white blob of suntan lotion on your face.


-My fan has to be on full blast at night or it is difficult to fall asleep. That or if there is no fan, it has to be cold in the room.


-Ever since I’ve been back from Kazakhstan, I’ve had this fear that someone is standing at the door and he is watching me. So everytime I walk through the house, I have to look at the door and make sure there is no one there. Also if I see the door is unlocked, I have to go and lock it.


-I like to pick boogers and eat them. JK. I actually like to flick them. Kidding again. Ever get that urge to punch someone in the face? Well I know this isn’t Christ-like but I get that urge often especially with stupid people or people that are cocky. I cannot stand them, but they have nothing to worry about because I would never do that. It would be both fun and funny though.


-I love toothpicks. If I see a toothpick in a restaurant, I grab one and play with it for quite some time.


-I love grass. In between plays of a football game, I will grab a piece of grass and play with it in my mouth. I know that sounds gross because of the insecticides and poop, but it takes my mind off the game and keeps me busy.


-Finally, as much as I like sports, I do not own a football or soccer ball. Weird huh?
