Me? Quirks? Inconceivable!

I’ve been tagged by Zoe. I’m sure I’ve done some version of this meme at least twice, but in the interest of being a good sport I’ll try to think of new things that are quirky about myself. I’m sure it will be unbearably difficult . . .

First, the rules:

* Link the person who tagged you
* Mention the rules in your blog
* Tell about six unspectacular quirks of yours
* Tag a new set of six following bloggers by linking them

1. I can’t watch someone try to untangle a knot without feeling a compulsive desire to try to untangle it myself. If I get started I can’t stop until it’s untangled, or until my eyes go crossed. I get weirdly obsessive around knots.

2. I have trouble with straight lines. Even with the help of a ruler, I find drawing or cutting a straight line completely impossible.

3. I can’t stay awake in cars. If I’m driving I’m fine, but if I’m the passenger I get so sleepy I can’t keep my eyes open, and I sort of drift in that place where I’m not quite awake and not quite asleep.

4. I get irrationally, disproportionately bad tempered when I’m hungry.

5. I make obscene noises when I encounter beautiful yarn. The obscene noises are usually accompanied by heavy petting and possibly my eyes rolling back in my head. mmmmmm, yarn.

6. I get all excited when a new weed pops up in my garden beds. Then I wait and watch for the flower so I can find out what it is. This inevitably leads to a healthy new weed population which I must then pull, but I can’t help myself.

Now I’m supposed to tag six other hapless individuals. Let’s see, who haven’t I harassed in a while?

1. The sexy and hilarious Ms. Lucky Libra

2. The always entertaining Farmchick

3. The delightful Tammy.

Why does it seem like everybody and her mother has done this crazy meme?

4. Hedgewitch, I’m so sorry, but being tagged has made me desperate, and you’re always a good sport about these things. Please forgive me. I’ll buy something from your Etsy shop next time I make some money, K?

Okay two more, I can do this . . .

5. Howling Hill! You need something more to do!

6. And finally, Sasha, because I’m jealous she got to go to a big ole herb festival!

Please don’t hate me, everyone, it isn’t my fault!
