#1 I use spell check for everything: important things, not-so-important things, emails, blogs, Christmas lists. This isn't necessarily quirky, but I really enjoy it when "No spelling errors found" pops up. It's like a little pat on my back from a typing teacher:) That might be a little prideful. Oops.
#2 I am addicted to Coca Cola. I used to joke with other pregnant mommies that Mallory and Morgan's amniotic fluid was Coke. I'm not really that bad, but I do need (okay, want) one everyday. And, I especially like the Coke from Chili's, McDonald's, Taco Bueno and a can that's been in the freezer for about 20 minutes (thanks Kara!).
#3 I am the worst about finishing things. I start projects, have great ideas, run out of time and there is sits. Incomplete. Ugh. It's really annoying to me...and to Brad. I moved some pictures in our house to another wall with a really pretty decorative shelf thingy. Too bad 3 of the 5 frames don't have any pictures in them...and it's been almost a month! Several people have seen the frame with the married couple and looked closer to see if it's us. It's not. Ugh.
#4 I love brownie, cake or cookie dough batter. LOVE it. I will bake brownies just so I can lick the bowl...and spoon...and scrape the bowl again. I know I'm not the only one. I called my sister one day to confess, and she said she does the same thing. Sorry Kelly! I had to make myself feel better on this one:)
#5 When I am bored or nervous, I will peel my nails. I don't ever bite them (unless there is a really crazy break), but I do peel them. I really enjoy it when I can split them. Okay, this is sounding really strange, so I'll stop talking about it. I think I peel them because they don't grow very long, and when they do, they start to break in the corners. Maybe they would grow longer if I put some hardening stuff on them when they start to break instead of peeling them. Hmmm.
#6 I talk/walk in my sleep almost every night. When I had my first job at Tom Thumb, I was a grocery sacker. I would wake up at the foot of my bed sacking groceries in my sleep! Then, I would realize what I was doing and tell the person I couldn't take their groceries out because I had to go back to sleep. The same thing happened after I became an RN. During orientation (when you do everyone's everything...IVs, catheters, dressings on wounds, you name it, you did it!), I would wake up so distressed because there would be a patient needing something, and I didn't have any of my supplies! What a dork!
Now I tag Kara, Karen, Shannon M. and Laura...and anyone else who wants to be a little introspective!!!

Hilarious! I've been known to make brownies or cookies and just decide not to cook them. I wish I could say it only happened a few times! ;) My nails peel, too. I hate it, but I can't resist peeling that layer off. Then it looks even worse!
I am glad I could contribute to your coke addiction! Yes, I too will make a dessert (even cupcakes) just so I can lick the bowl! Everytime I read the amount of cookies a recipe makes I have to subtract that number by at least 5. Sad!
You needed to add that you also talk in your "not totally awake stage" too...it's pretty funny to see. :)
See the brownie thing isn't too crazy. Sometimes that's just the right amount to take care of the sweet tooth.
Um, those are really good. I did a head-nod-in-surprise thing when I read you walk in your sleep...had no idea!
Thanks for contributing! Fun!
So, what is Brad's reaction to the walk/talk in sleep syndrom? I can't believe he has kept that secret for 6 years! Especially since his favorite thing is to make fun of people's quirks!
Okay, that just made me laugh out loud. I was a sacker at T.T. too, and I would sack groceries in my DREAM, but never go through the motions. Funny.
