Okay June........I've Been Tagged !
1. I do laundry at all hours of the night. I'll wash a load at ten and then wake up at 3 to dry it. The really ironic thing about this is that my mother does the same thing. Wierd!
2. I have been extremely claustraphobic (spelling) ever since I was accidentally locked in the back of a refrigerated truck on a catering event. How did I escape? I ran side to side in the truck throwing myself into the walls and someone outside noticed the truck rocking back and forth. This still gives me nightmares.
3. I never eat the peanut butter from the bottom or sides of the jar. I throw it away. I also never drink the last bit of milk from the carton. I have no idea why I have this wierd quirk.
4. I have no depth perception and only one of my eyes works at a time. This is a result of my being born cross-eyed. I also have a lazy eye - especially when I'm tired.
5. My junior high gym teacher and coach, Mrs. Beaster, taught me how to hit a baseball. I will be forever gratefull to this woman for the time, effort, and care that went into this. I was 13 years old and had never had a hit....never even CLOSE to a hit! She actually had to stand behind me and hold the bat with me until I learned. This saved me from humiliation for years after. I actually played intramural baseball in college. Had some hits too!
6. I hold my pencil really wierd.......many teachers tried to change this....unsuccessfully.
I'll do eight because June did 8....
7. I love being able to open the windows up in spring .....after being cooped up all winter with stale dry air. Taking the first spring ride in a car with the windows down and the sun shinning is right up there on my list of favorites also.
8. The stupidest thing I did in college was to drive my beloved 1974 Ford Maverick named "Gertrude" around the block on a back road in town with my 2 friends on the hood. We were just having fun and being idiots with no thought to how dangerous this was.
I now tag Jake and Amanda, my mother and father, and Hannah, who will all have to be "Tagged" on my site.

Thanks for playing! :0)
I can't imagine how scary that must have been to be stuck in the refrigerated truck. WOW!
Very interesting - and scary! That laundry thing? I think that disease has been around a long time,a mutant virus that seeks out new mothers everywhere and then it lives off its host for a lifetime. Once struck down with the laundry virus, there is no cure but one - hire a maid!
