leah says i have to list 5 wierd habits. apparently leah has more faith in my capacity for entertaining wierdness than i do. let’s see…
i’m sure there are those people in my life who could come up with this list (and probably a longer one) in record time, so i reserve the right to amend it when i get home– as to reflect accuracy.
Wierd habit #1: I eat things in multiples of two whenever possible. For example, two M&Ms, two pretzels, etc. This is to insure perfectly equal amounts of food on each side of my mouth. In the example of the M&Ms, they must also be the same color.
Wierd habit #2: When making lists of “Things To Do”, I list things I have already done that day so that I may check them off and feel productive.
Wierd habit #3: When reading or listening to something, I look for phrases that have letters or syllables that form patterns. For example, “University of Arkansas” has 20 letters. That is two patterns of 10. U ni ver sity o fA rka nsas. You can split the letters into even clumps of 1 – 2 – 3 – 4. That one splits up syllables so it’s not perfect. I’m sure I just lost some people there.
Wierd habit #4: I fix my hair to go get it cut.
Wierd habit #5: I wear pajamas that match. Not a set, necessarily, but a shirt that matches bottoms.
the job is awesome. i’m really happy with the way things turned out.
mom– if you don’t have a copy of “Somewhere Down in Texas” let me know. it is, in my opinion, the best one in a while. (excluding the 50 #1s of course!)
I also do habit #2. There’s nothing like giving yourself a pat on the back for all the things you accomplished that day. :)
of course you’re weird! You’re a Martin!
