Cupcakes and Cashmere

im awkward at holding hands. i love awkward angles. i cant draw a straight line. when i eat a twix bar, i have to take off the side chocolate, then the top chocolate and caramel, and then the cookie. i also eat cheesecake by scraping it off on my fork, layer by layer, until i reach the graham cracker at the bottom. im addicted to gum. i like the number 72. i have a nose fetish. i also love hands. i collect hats. i kill plants. i save fish that are dying in walmart’s tanks. i sleep talk, sometimes in other languages. i love the smell of cigarettes, even though im an asthmatic. if im sitting at my desk, im almost always sitting indian style. i love periods (as in, the punctuation). i can only read at night. i randomely get claustrophobic and have to leave the house. i love socks, although i almost never wear them. i love hanging pictures upside-down or sideways, whatever way is incorrect. im way too literal of a person for math. i name inanimate objects. if i meet a guy and i cant remember his name, i call him oliver or bernard. strangely enough, i do not do this for girls i meet. im really good at naming things.
i know i have a million others, but thats about all i can think of for now

This is one of the greatest post I’ve ever read! Ok, here we go:
I am terrified of cats and house flies. Kittens are worse than large cats
I iron and starch my sheets, and will not allow anyone in my bed unless they’ve bathed or showered
I have to have all labels facing the front
I will not go to the bathroom in a place where the paper end is coming under the roll..had to be over the top or I’ll just hold it
I cannot stand french pedicures
I love being engaged, and do it as often as possible, but can’t imagine actually going through with marriage. Maybe some day
Bad grammar, strange smells and bad shoes are deal breakers
I have a nose like a beagle and actually have an x I refer to as “Swingset-hands,” as his hands had a metalic/sweaty smell. Deal breaker, unfortunately.

Nothing wrong with being individual and cheeky…that’s what I think quirky means anyway.

Hmmm… my quirks…
-If I touch something by accident, I have to touch it with the opposite body part/side of my body which can be a bad thing when I’ve touched something hot/spiky.
-I seperate things whilst eating them, it takes forever for me to eat jaffa cakes…
-I have panic attacks when cooking about the food being cooked too fast/too slow/undercooked/too dark/too light. I’m drenched in sweat by the end of cooking sausages.
-I like to have a hot and cold drink at the same time.
-I eat frozen peas and dry spaghetti.
-If I’m away from home I talk to my cat/horses through the phone [during a converstaion with my mum] and have started to make my boyfriend do it.
-I use my feet to pick objects up off the floor… a lot…
-I still like making dens.
-I take photographs of everything because I have such a terrible memory and like to document my life.
-My computer is organised into about a million different files which are within files, which are within files, which are withi…
-I write in a microscopic size.
-I range between having days when I do nothing productive to days where I sort out my entire life in an hour.
-I’m so tidy that I’m messy, when I tidy my room it can take days because everything MUST have IT’S OWN SPECIAL PLACE.
-I hate wearing matching socks or unmatching underwear
-I like my fizzy drinks to be slightly flat and will shake them until they are [and my boyfriend hates his drinks to be even a little flat so it works well], also I quite enjoy if a can of fizzy drink has been left in the sun so it is hot but still fizzy – wierd burning/tingling/painful fizzy feeling as you drink it.
-I hate the sound of unglazed pottery being moved over other unglazed pottery [like if a pottery cup is turned in it's saucer].
-If my makeup goes on badly it ruins my whole day.
And that’s not even scraping the surface…
Sorry for attacking your comment space and I know this is a bit late but I’ve just come across your blog and so I’m now going through every article. [Is it even called an article? A section? You know what I mean]. Oh there’s another quirk – I prefer square brackets to normal ones – they just seem nicer.
