Strange Little Things

I'm sure we all have our quirks, the funny little habits we have that we don't notice until they're pointed out to us. I have a fair few, for example...

I can't wash my knickers in anyone elses machine (even my mums) I have to use my own.

My knickers have to match my bra.

I always ask for tea, or say I'm making a cup of tea but I mean coffee, I've never drank tea, this confuses everyone except the children, they know I mean coffee.

I never use apostrophes in texts, I just leave a space. I also don't use a full stop I put a kiss in instead. I also hate to end a message without a kiss, it just seems wrong. Some friends (well, just the one actually) have their own special signature kiss ending.

I read at least 6 horoscopes every day and half believe them too. I don't like to date Virgo's either, they don't match well with Leo's, yes I know that's taking it too far.

Charlie calls everything we (that's Sarah and I) drink 'tea', whatever cup or glass it comes in and whatever colour, which is handy really... we drink a lot of 'tea' in our house!

TF - I notice you didn't offer up any of your own ... x

Penelope - yep, it's ok I know I'm slightly bonkers

Tim - sure it's cute now but will it be when he's 42 ? Mind you Charlie's probably way smarter than me !

Haha...I love you girl! You always have a way of making me smile. BTW, I totally get the bra matching the knickers thing. My girls think I'm nuts, but it's gotta be that way!

You're very intuitive. I only know I have quirks when good friends point them out. And then I'm all embarassed.
