I made up a game called LAVA DEATH where I would put sofa cushions on the floor and have to hop on each one, otherwise I would die and wriggle around pretending to burn. (And yet I turned out normal. Sort of.) Other weird things I do: count stairs as I climb them, mutter to myself constantly when there's no one around, and fill up pages with handwriting so I can run my hand over them.

I don't think the things I do are weird--and you wouldn't believe how much authors love Cathy-on-a-Stick, so really, what's weird? :-)<br /><br />But okay, I have a whole slew of sports-related somewhat superstitious quirks. Like if I'm sitting with Mister Man and my team has the ball, I'll threaten to throw something at him if my team screws up. He's pretty darn invested in the games, for at least as long as he stays in the room with me.<br /><br />Is that the sort of quirky behavior you meant??? :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640755272364792151.post-58188276613400655592013-10-14T20:03:26.904-04:002013-10-14T20:03:26.904-04:00Quirks are wonderful!

I can't let my fingernails get too long, and I get the heebie jeebies from the idea of painting them . . . they are clipped to finger length and kept clean from polish, etc. Ok, that's almost an OCD quirk, but there it is.Tyrean Martinsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15356604721537744361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640755272364792151.post-44587797681952872712013-10-14T15:53:12.008-04:002013-10-14T15:53:12.008-04:00You're right - crowds outside are better.

The closest I come is putting milk on my cereal. I never put jelly with my peanut butter though I like both. I also don't use condiments.

But I eat the crusts FIRST (just like I eat the cake first) because I like to save the part I love MOST (the squishy middle and the frosting) for last.<br /><br />I didn't embrace my inner quirk until I was about a senior in high school. I think it is that I was tall and already stood out, so didn't want to stand out MORE until I finally realized I actually could thrive BETTER not fitting in.Hart Johnsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17599570189253229318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1640755272364792151.post-32057941579282168912013-10-14T11:14:55.780-04:002013-10-14T11:14:55.780-04:00I always eat a peanut butter sandwich after eating...I always eat a peanut butter sandwich after eating popcorn.
