Here are the rules:
Tell about 6 unspectacular quirks of yours. Tag 6 fellow bloggers by linking them. Leave a comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged.

Here are my six quirky things:

1. When I am cutting up vegetables, I count. I don't mean to, I just suddenly realize that I am counting how many times I have chopped. When I start a new piece, I start counting over. I know- it's a little Rain Man!

2. Every night, and I mean EVERY NIGHT, I put Vicks Vapo rub on my lips and up my nose. Yes, that's right- up my nose. Why? you might ask? When I was young, I used to get very bad bloody noses. I have had my nose cauterized seven times. The Dr told me I needed to put Vaseline, or some other moisturizing cream in my nose at night so it would not dry out, or else I would wake up with a bloody nose. Vaseline made me feel like I was suffocating, so one day when I was sick with a cold, I put Vicks up there, and it has stuck ever since! (I know, that was WAAAAAAY to much info!!) Isn't Adam a lucky man to get to go to bed with Vicks EVERY night?

3. I can do the splits on both my right and left side without stretching. A product of a lot of years dancing and stretching while growing up and a less than hard muscular physique!

4. Since the year 2000, I have lived in the following places-
-South Ogden, Utah
-Hanscom AFB, Massachusetts (a suburb of Boston)
-Vandenberg AFB, California (on the central coast)
-Minot AFB, North Dakota (can you say, almost Canada? beauty eh?)
-Pflugerville, Texas (a suburb of Austin)
-Corpus Christi, Texas
-and some as of yet undisclosed location not in Corpus Christi.
It's the year 2008- would anyone like to calculate our moving average???

5. I drink Diet Coke like it's water. I can drink a Diet Coke right before bed and not loose an ounce of sleep for it.

6. The only TV shows I watch are reality shows. I know it's kind of nerdy, but for some reason, they are the ones I like the best. I still watch Survivor, the Amazing Race, American Idol, and So You Think You Can Dance. My other favorite thing on TV is the Fox News Channel. I watch it while I am cleaning the kitchen, folding laundry, eating my lunch, making dinner, and anything else I can do to pass by the TV in the afternoon. Shepard Smith and I are tight!

It was fun to hear about your quirky things! I know we all have plenty. I like to watch Fox News too!

WOW! You sure have moved a lot! It was fun getting to know more about you seeing as how I only really knew #3 ;) Which I don't think I could do anymore by the way, so you are awesome! And I don't know why but I never pictured you as a reality tv person. The only reality show I watch is SYTYCD and Americas Next Top Model - I really need to give that one up. It's riduclous, yet I continue to watch it. Oh well right?

Tynel, I am so happy to know that there is someone out there besides myself who is a night-time Vicks addict! You described my nightly Vicks routine to a T! :)
