1. I love to iron linens.

2. I love the smell of fumes from large buses.

3. While dressing in the morning, the first thing I put on are my socks, the second is my shoes. If my slacks don’t fit over the shoes, I make an allowance and put the shoes on after the slacks. It gets cold here in Minnesota.

4. I love to take tests.

I look for a good place to sleep in case I ever become homeless. I work in the financial district in SF and I arrive in the dark. I look around building structures and alcoves for high, dry places to sleep if I ever am without a roof over my head. My family thinks that’s really weird, but it is an innate fear I cannot shake. My favorite building has picture windows about 4 feet off the ground and protection from the wind. It’s on Sansome between California and Sacramento.

I’m really weird. I eat md’s frencfries with vanilla ice cream. i have half a million things going at once. i love to plan outtings for me and my friends and i keep a lot of people’s scedual’s going(did you remember that you have an appointment at such and such time? i never nag, i just remind if you tell me.) i play with people’s faces, like when you play with a kid’s face. Kid’s like me because i am just like them and get what they are saying. I love rainy days too, but i also like sunny days. when i was working i couldn’t get enough sleep, and now that i’m not, i am getting so little sleep and thriving on it. And aparently i’m weird because i think elephants are gorgeous. i want to come back as one after i die. one thing i want more than a lot of stuff is a snowflake necklace. and i can’t find one.

It’s nice to know there are others like us isn’t it? I eat all the topping off a slice of pizza and then eat the crust-never both at the same time and I too only drink “flat” soda. I am a sock convert and have a goal of a pair of socks for each family member for Valentine’s day. One down and six to go. I think the Loopy Ewe is a wonderful shop and Sheri is exemplary in her service and personable attention to our needs. Thanks for all your hard work.

I’m with you on the rainy stuff, I once moved to San Diego and begged my boyfriend (who is now my husband) to send me a plane ticket home after only 3 weeks. I live in Connecticut.

I have had a blast reading about all of the idiosyncrasies. I absolutely can identify with the whole gas thing. My biggest thing is my keys. I have a place that they belong when not in use–a small pocket on the front of my current purse. I start to twitch if my DH uses them and lays them on the counter or on my desk top. Thanks to all for sharing. It’s nice to know that there are fellow “humans” out there!!

I talk to myself and have actual conversations. My friends at work are used to it now, but we just hired a new dentist and he has yet to get used to it. It may be due to the fact that I was an only child and needed to amuse myself or it could be that I’m just weird!

Ok, I have a weird one for you. Everywhere I go I notice how lazy folks are in the restaurants, mall, stores, especially books store bathrooms and never push down the papertowels in the receptacle-wastecans. So after I have washed my hands with the papertowels I use it to push down the waste and wow you would be surprise how it won’t overflow or even be that full afterwards.

i did this meme, but i’ll see if i can figure out something different.

I’m an Xtreme multitasker. Right now i’m reading blogs, listening to a book tape, and knitting booties for charity. This is standard for me. I’m not happy if I’m not doing at least 2 things at once. And I have a hard time JUST knitting and listening to book tapes. don’t feel like i’m doing enough.

1) I *hate* peanut butter. My dad loves it (superchunky preferred), but my mom hates it. She claims to have tried multiple times to feed it to me when I was a toddler (just because most kids like it and she wanted me to try *everything* once), but I always refused.

2) I’m allergic to caraway seeds. Not like anaphylactic death-allergic, but they make me unhappy. I learned this in organic chemistry lab in college when we had to distill caraway oil from seeds. Explained why rye bread always made my stomach hurt…

3) I nearly always count my knitting by threes. Three stitches, three rows, etc. I think it started when someone near me in a guild meeting was counting out loud by twos, and I couldn’t concentrate on my counting. Now it just works better for me!

Sheri, I LOVE my sock blockers, the friend I gifted with a sock blocker keychain/a me-made soc for it/the instructions is in love with it, and I am sorely tempted to ball and start knitting from my Yarn Pirate Isobel yarn. This first-time customer loves your “e-shop.” The YP must wait–too many socks in the queue before it.
