idiosyncrasies

March 24th, 2008

Idiosyncrasies. We’ve all got them. They make each of us unique. Here are some of mine:

1. I can’t sleep if the opening on my pillowcase is facing the inside of the bed. Same for my husband’s pillow. I feel like it is going to bite me if it is facing towards me. I even switch the kids pillows around if they are facing the “wrong” way.

2. I hate having my head touched (unless, of course, you are offering a head rub!).

3. All things need to feel equal and balanced. My ponytail needs to be exactly centered or it makes me nuts. Both sleeves need to be pulled up to the same part of my arm or not at all. I brush my teeth the same number of times on each side, every time. Hands in both pockets or neither. If I’m lucky enough to have one hand, foot or shoulder rubbed, I need to “make it even” and have the other one done too.

4. I don’t like my socks to be touching the tips of my toes. I always pull them forwards a bit.

5. This on is my Mom’s fault: Anything in my cupboards with a label on it needs to be right side up with the (english) label facing forwards. No upside down soup cans with the french side facing out here!
