I was tagged by Sharon. I'll do it before I make another entry later explaining the pure HELL of New Year's Eve. If it was any precursor for 2006, I want off this boat right now!

On to business.

Here are the rules.... Write five weird habits of yourself and then you need to choose the next five people to be tagged and link to their web journals. Don’t forget to leave a comment in their blog or journal that says “You are tagged” (assuming they take comments) and tell them to read yours. 

Weird habits, huh? Me? I'm so normal!

1. I'm paranoid. I'm up at least once every 2 hours during the night. I check on the kids, then on mom, and do a sweep of the entire house, rechecking the locks. Every time. Even though I know they were locked 2 hours ago, and 2 hours before that. And if I hear a noise at any point during the night that I can't explain away... Oh Hell.

2. I'm a control freak. Is that a weird habit? I have the weird habit of being a control freak? Except during sex. That's a totally different area that you don't *really* want to know about, do you?

3. Anything that's spreadable must cover every inch of the bread evenly. None of that peanut butter just globbed in the middle. It has to cover the entire surface area. Same for butter, or mayo. The contents of a sandwhich must be orderly in appearance. The tomato slice must be directly in the center. The bacon slices must be in horizontal rows, evenly spaced, and cannot exceed the size of the bread or bun included. Brody refuses to let me get sandwhiches with anything on them when he's with me. I have to ask for everything on the side so I can "get it right the first time instead of taking an extra 10 minutes to disassemble and reassemble a pre-made sandwhich!"

4. I used to have the weird habit of constantly flipping my cigarettes, even when I had just knocked the ashes off and there were no ashes yet to flip. I was a continuous cigarette tapper. I say used to and was because I haven't had a cigarette since October 3rd.

5. I'm an impulse buyer, for ridiculous things. I'll never impulse buy an article of clothing I'll never wear, because I can rationalize that it looks way better on the mannequin than it does on me. Once, I went by a car lot and saw an adorable little red 80's mobile. It took me right back to 1985. I bought it. You can always use another car, right?

I'm going to tag Kasey, and Brian. Yes, it said 5, but I'm a control freak and I say 2. So there!
