Six quirky things about me...
1. I LOVE making lists and checking them off. In college, I was obsessed with my planner. I had so much fun making my list for the day and checking things off one by one. Sometimes, like today, If I do something (like a load of laundry) and don't write it on my list, I will go back and write it, just so I can check it off. I have become much more relaxed since having kids, and realizing that my day rarely goes as planned.
2. I can't fall asleep without the t.v on. I set the sleep timer every night, or put a dvd on and nap on the couch. I have tried sleeping without it, but I always end up lying there for an hour, just thinking. My brain goes crazy without a distraction.
3. I hate talking on the phone. We don't have a home line, and I am a big time call screener on my cell. I never answer if I don't know who it is, and even if I do, I don't always answer. I listen to my messages and call back if it's important.
4. I won't eat potatoes. Only french fries that are crispy. If they taste to much like potato I won't eat them. Gross.
5. I get Melasma with my pregnancies. It's sometimes called the pregnancy mask, and is hyper-pigmentation of the skin. I get dark splotches above my lip, on my nose, cheeks, and forehead. I have to wear sunscreen and keep my face covered, and even then, I still get it. I have had people tell me that I have dirt on my face. It fades a little after birth, but not completely. I hate it, because it means I have to wear makeup to cover it up, and I never wear makeup. And besides that, it always looks like I have a mustache. I decided that when I'm done having babies, I'm going to go get the laser treatment to remove it. It costs like $800 so I better start saving.
6. I always keep my toenails short. I hate it if I can ever feel them with my other toes. Sometimes I clip them so short I have to paint the skin when I put polish on. My feet feel dirty when my toenails aren't short.
I think everyone I know has done this tag, so there you have it. If you're quirky things have changed, or you've grown some new ones give us an update.

your lists! I became much more of a list checker-offer after Nezdeh...
Aw, Jeanine you're such a good sport. This was fun to read! I like lists too, but not quite as much as you :)
I'm glad you found me! And it actually makes me feel better that you gained 50 lbs. with Beckham - you look fantastic now, so that means there's hope for me. I looooove the wall hangings you put up in your apartment, by the way.
P.S. After living with you more than once, I did not even know a single one of the quirky things about you. Good to know!
I was planning on offering you the other half of my BFF charm necklace after reading about your love for checklists but now I am having second thoughts seeing that you do not share my love of potatos. Luckily I believe we now live in a world where potato lovers and haters can coexist peacefully.
I get the melasma too and HATE it, but at least I've been mainly pregnant during winter.
No wonder you haven't talked to me in months!!!
I would like you and Rach to know that I've already gained 40lbs. and have 6 weeks left!!!
