Quirks

I've been tagged and am required to admit six quirky things about myself.

The rules of the meme:
1. Link to the person that tagged you.
2. Post the rules on your blog.
3. Share six non-important things/habits/quirks about yourself.
4. Tag six random people at the end of your post by linking to their blogs.
5. Let each random person know they have been tagged by leaving a comment on their website.

Here goes.

One: I had my nose pierced when I was 18 and again when I was 32. The first time, I took it out because I thought I was going to be a lawyer, and thought it might hinder my career prospects. The second time I took it out because, having given up the pathetic lawyer dream I was in the middle of giving birth to my third child and had to go into surgery for an emergency caesarean. You have to remove all your jewellery, and I put it in my husband's pocket and never found it again.

Two: When I was 16 I said that I might possibly get married, but I would certainly never have children because it would interfere with my career. Ha. And now I've turned into a homeschooling freak...

Three: I had a dummy (pacifier) until I was six. Mothers out there, don't worry about your kids and their dummies! After all, I'm reasonably normal.
Four: Perhaps I gave up my dummy too soon because I constantly need to have something in my mouth and I still bite my nails.

Five: In summer I have such hot feet that I have to sleep with my feet over the edge of the bed.

Six: I am a very fussy sleeper. I must have: my own mattress, doona and two pillows. I must not have bare arms or pyjamas that climb up my legs. In cold weather I must not have a midriff 'gap'. In summer I must have a fan. I have to wear ear plugs (the kind they give you for heavy machinery) and I must have lip salve on my mouth. There must be no bright lights or background noise from TV or radio. There must be NO SNORING!
