Huzzah!

As I fiddle fart arou-- um, work on the computer tonight, Hubby is FINALLY installing the new motherboard for his computer. Is there any greater news at this very moment? Once again my computer is mine, all mine. Bwahahaha! I never was good at sharing...

Oh! And I've been "tagged." *sigh* AmyDoodle of Mind Over Mullis gave me the news last night. Story has it I'm to disclose 5 odd and/or unique things about myself. Bummer. I'm also supposed to tag five new people... but I refuse to conform (sorry Amy). 'Tis your choice, Oh Faithful Readers. So if you'd like to clue those of Bloggerland in on all your funnies, post away... but I don't want to name names (you know who you are, Melanie) and leave you feeling trapped or pressured (kimmi, I'm lookin' at you). I shall merely proceed with my own facts.

1. I'm OCD about washing my hands. When a sink and soap are no where to be found I steal from the stash of baby wipes meant for my two-year-old. Or... a good spit bath works.

2. I carry a Kleenex in the waistband of my pants (the ones without pockets). You never know when your nose may require a good swiping. Or when Hubby will need a smear of grease rubbed from his cheek. (Note: Do not do this while dining at 54th Street Grill and Bar for your third anniversary.)

3. I count steps, silently, as I ascend or descend them. It's a good thing our two staircases have just twelve steps each, since I can only count to fourteen.

4. Hi, my name is Janna and I'm addicted to caffeine. Primarily that which is found in Dr Pepper and Starbucks mocha frappucinos. Here's what I look like when I haven't had any:




Although, to be fair, I look the same when I've had too much. Or when I get out of bed in the morning.

5. I'm a self-conscious person. Really. Oh, cripes. Was that a boogie on the end of my nose? *runs to other room, away from computer so no one can see*

Janna, I'll play along, but I don't know enough people to tag 5 more. It seems all the blogs I read have already been hit!

I must comment on the stair counting - I consider myself borderline OCD and fight the "natural" tendencies to count everything, check my purse one more time, and wash my hands a lot.

That came to a head when my mom came to visit last July. We live on the 4th floor and I've forced myself not to count them - to this day I have not - but the first time she started climbing she asked how many there were. I shouted for her to keep it to herself or I'd be doomed to counting the rest of the time we live here. :)

So far, so good.
