Three little quirks you have that not everybody knows.
1. When reading books, I read them so as to not break the spine. I hate the feel of that crack along the back and have ever since my brother instilled this into me years ago.
2. Whenever I hug anyone in my family (or anyone in my family hugs each other for that matter) we squeeze tight and do a one-two-three pat on the back. I have no idea when we started this.
3. When opening a ketchup packet, I squeeze out whatever I can, then suck off whatever remains at the tip. Insert your own dirty joke here I suppose.
Three things people SHOULD know about you if they want to get along with you better.
1. NEVER talk to me when I'm reading or trying to write. Interrupt me if you have to, but either get to the point ASAP or shut up and wait until I'm done.
2. Don't move the armrest in my car without asking me. I drive my car every day. Chances are I've placed the armrest in the best position to, you know, actually let me keep control of my vehicle.
3. Heat kills me. Let me do whatever I need to in order to stay cool.
Three pieces of obscure trivia (general trivia, NOT about you).
1. It is possible to talk to mole rats by tapping on their burrows.
2. Coca-Cola did not create the commonly known image of Santa Claus, though they enjoy claiming credit for it.
3. The problem with the tax on tea that spurred such things as the Boston Tea Party was not because the tax had been raised, but because it had been lowered.
One odd thing currently in your purse, wallet, or pocket.
In my filofax (currently with me thanks to the rebooted PDA) I have a collection of business cards from various members of Anne Rice's family.
