Thanks to The Jet Set Girls for tagging me in the wild meme sweeping the blogosphere! I love their post because they write about eachothers quirks! In a tell-tale post I will describe 6 quirks about myself.
MY Quirks are mundane run-0f-the-mill variety exciting and noteworthy, here we go…
1. I don’t particular like to use plush bath towels. Those big fluffy towels look beautiful in the linen closet but when it comes to drying off I really like the thin, rough and abrasive type of towel that are hard to find nowadays. I also can’t stand using fabric softener with my towels, I like them stiff. If I had time I would iron them!
2. Something I’ve learned about myself is I *have to* maintain a certain amount of stuff, having my this’s there and my what’s where? is time consuming but I’m a pack rat! I’m convinced that the cereal boxes I’ve kept flattenned under boy2001’s bed, used Japanese phone cards tucked under my panty organizer, AOL cd’s etc… will rise in value and I will become the most famous pack rat of all!
3. I can’t stand predictability. I know it’s comforting for children so I appease them with a routine but in all other aspects of my life I try to diversify as much as possible. You may have noticed that on this blog, I will have 5 posts in one day and none the next. I could easily post date the launch of the post to have readers on a rationed feeding schedule. That would be the orderly and sensible thing to do but that is NOT who I am so it’s not going to happen. I will continue to post as the inspiration and impulse strikes and hit “Publish” without regret.
4. I love to birdwatch. I have 10 bird feeders around my front windows and I secretly despise the birds when they snub me and go to my neighbors. Right now my Goldfinches are MIA and the Hummingbirds have not shown up yet this year- it’s still early but… I love when they hang out here and let me watch them through the window all day. All of my family members have been trained to look for birds before attempting to enter the front door. If there are birds they have to wait or go through the back entrance!
5. I can only cut my hair if a famous celebrity is involved. When I was a child I got a Mary Lou Retton hair cut and in the early 90’s I got a Demi Moore “Ghost” hair cut. Scraggly longer hair since then.
6. Not only do I love to use makeup, I love to look at it. I have some posts coming up with the cutest little makeup packaging. It’s just so pretty I can’t stand it.’

Daphne, I just received your email and had you mixed up with someone else (this will help explain my email back to you
Thanks so much for the give away. Can’t wait to read the book!!! Rebecca
I kinda agree with you on the towels, but not on the pack rat thing. As Hope pointed out, I’m obsessively organized these days. It gives me great joy to throw things out! Also, living in NYC, I kinda have to–my apartment is small! Thanks for playing!
