My sis in law Kenzi tagged me. So here are 6 (actually 8) quirks about me...I'm doing it for Steve too since he doesn't have any time to blog...I mean any...

1. I like to have vacuum lines at all times in at least one part of the house. This is usually the guest bedroom and part of the family room. We usually walk around the coffee table a certain way so I'll always have vacuum lines

2. I also like empty trash cans. We have a trash can in our bedroom, but I usually tell Steve not to throw any trash in it and to put it in the bathroom trash can..

before I bore you with my OCD on cleaning I will try and think of other quirks I have, but most of mine have to do with cleaning and organizing!

3. I hate wrinkles in my clothes. I will either steam or iron everything I wear, which makes travelling a pain because everything gets wrinkled

4. I can't sleep with the closet door open or any doors open for that matter. If I know a door is open I will have to get up and close it

5. I (like McKenzie) have to have earrings in my ears and usually pearls. I am on my 6th set of pearl studs. I would wear them waterskiing and swimming, etc. I am smarter now though..I wear fake pearls when I do sporting events so I don't lose my real ones. Last time we were in Hawaii my mom bought me my final final pair because I had lost my other ones that Steve bought, which he bought because I had lost my last pair of final earrings from my mom. However, the Hawaii pearls really are the last ones she said she would buy me so I better not lose them :) And I love them because they are big :)

6. I can't eat fast food. I know they have salads and stuff, but I just can't eat there. The only thing I can eat from those places is a frosty or small McDonalds vanilla ice cream cone. When I was little and on road trips I wouldnt even go in them. I would sit in the car...Pathetic I know.

7. I like my chicken done. And I don't like the fat part or the edges.

8. I have to add another because I don't like ending on a 7. It's an ugly number eventhough it is supposed to be good luck. I can't leave the house without the bed made...EVER!

Okay here are some quirks about Steve as told by Marissa:

1. He is very obsessive about his hair. When he gets out of the shower, he has to put on a hat so it doesn't make his hair puffy. While walking in the wind, he gets very nervous about his hair. When we were dating, we did baptisms for the dead and he kept saying, "well I'm not going to get baptized" and I was like "that's fine, I don't care." Then he ended up having to...and he was a little nervous/stressed about his hair!! Now I know it was all because his hair would be wet and he wouldnt' be able to put a hat on so it would get puffy!!!

2. He has to have his tie exactly to the middle of his belt. He will tie it over and over again until it is exactly to the middle of his belt.

3. He is very concerned about his shirt/pants being of different bagginess. He does not like if the shirt is baggy and the pants are more fitted. This is even a problem for workout clothes.

4. He likes pizza more than any other person in the world. He doesn't care what kind at all..he could eat it 3 meals a day and probably NEVER get sick of it..(his fav is Pappa John's which is a disgrace to us east coasters!)

5. The bathroom door must be closed when he is taking a shower. He notices if I even open the door a little.

6. He likes things to fit exactly perfect. He'll try on the 31, too small; 32, too big. It's one inch. Medium, sleeves are too short; large, body is too long. Jeez he needs a 31.5 and a M/L. I know I am picky, but he can certainly hold his own!

7. Okay he probably wouldn't have cared too much about the other ones, but this one may break the straw off the camel's back...He used to take a bath nearly every Sunday with bubbles (with a scent he chose) and the music going! It was pretty funny..Ocassionally he would even read..He doesn't have time for these luxuries anymore :(

8. I just dont want to end of 7..see above :) His shoes have to match just right..he is picky when it comes to shoes..

He will probably kill me, but that's okay...

I tag Brenda, Wendy (post it on Ben's blog to spice things up), Mindy, Ashley (this will give you something to blog about :), and whoever else is bored at work like me!!! Also, feel free to post about husband quirks either in conjunction with yours or instead of yours! i think it's funny to read about men's quirks because its a given we women have them!
