OK, ladies. I've been tagged. Both Meredith and Heather tagged me to post six quirks that I have. Really, all I have to say is 6? I can only pick six? Oh, what will I choose? Well, here goes. Here, in no particular order, are six unremarkable quirks about me.
1. I talk in my sleep. Not mumble, groan talk, but complete sentences, carry on conversations talk. Sometimes with my eyes open. Scary, I know. You don't have to tell me. I'm the one spilling my guts to people in the middle of the night. AND, unless you tell me, I don't know I did it. Or what I said.
2. I love monkeys--all kinds of monkeys. I think they are awesome, and if I had a pet, I would want a monkey. But, since no one else seems to think having a monkey for a pet is such a great idea, I have to settle for stuffed ones. I have two. Grand Master Monkey and Sleepy Time Curious George. Yes, for real. Hey, no laughing. Did I mention they are fierce? ;)
3. I play with my eyelashes when I am tired, but only the eyelashes on my right eye. Which is funny because I'm left handed. Regardless, if I'm playing with my eyelashes it's a sure sign that I am very sleepy. And, if I'm missing a bunch of eyelashes on that eye you can know that I've had a rough month. Ha!
4. I love school, and I even (please do not start throwing things at me) love homework. I always have. I was one of those irritating kids who asked for extra credit homework all the time. I still love to do homework. Maybe that's why I love Beth Moore so much? I can tell you this. I signed up to take a Bible study at church this fall, and I nearly died and went to heaven when I found out that our "workbook" is an enormous three-ring binder filled with worksheets to fill out. And, yes, I still shop for new school supplies every year. Some people reorganize their lives around New Year's Day. Well, for me it is mid-August. And, yes, I know I'm weird.
5. I love music. Almost any kind of music, really. I know most of the words to many Top 40 song from the last couple of decades. My dream is to go on Don't Forget The Lyrics. I play at home every time it is on. And, if you are ever over when it is on, don't talk to me unless it's during a commercial break. You'll break my concentration. And, seriously, it takes a lot of concentration to remember the words to "Blame it on the Rain."
6. And, finally, well at least for this meme, I cannot stand and will complain for years about any movie that doesn't end the way I want it to. Seriously, if I don't like the ending, I will not ever like the movie. Even if I liked all of it but the last five minutes. There is one huge exception to that rule and that is with "The Way We Were." That is my absolute favorite movie of all times (except maybe Gone With the Wind), and I love it even though K-K-Katie and Hubbell don't end up together in the end. I could psychoanalyze that for you, but refer to number 4. You already think I'm weird. So, I'll just let it drop.
And, before I go. Thank you all so much for your prayers. They mean the world to me. The two tests they've done so far have been normal, which they expected, and I have another test tomorrow morning. Yuck, yuck, yuck! Thanks again for praying! I love you all.

Funny list. I'm not sure how I feel about you liking homework. UGH!
How have you been feeling? I have been thinking about you. We need an update on you.
Seriously? Homework? What is wrong with you woman!!! Just kidding, but really that is strange :-)
I hope your headaches haven't been too bad, glad the test have been normal!! Praying for you!
I LOVED this!
I am with you on the monkey obsession. I was given a stuffed monkey on the day I was born. He is affectionately named "Funky Monkey!" Do you know where he is today? I have passed him on to Vance and he sleeps with him every night. TEAR!
I hope you are feeling well!
I knew we were long lost sisters!! I heart homework too!! WOW never thought I'd say that sentence out loud ~~ someone who feels my pain
:0) Hope you are feeling better. Hang in there!!
Praying,
Dawn
I hope you are feeling better, Heather! I loved reading your list. I have to admit though, monkeys freak me out! :)
I love these things..yay for your participation. (and p.s. I love school too..just not the test part!)
Praise God your tests have gone well so far! Praying for you tomorrow!
Oh my goodness! Heather that is funny about the homework! I am absolutely the opposite of that homework fact! Great to get to know you better! Praying and thinking of you!
I like school and I love monkeys. Maybe I should go to monkey school. That would be fantastic! Would you like to go to monkey school with me? We could learn all about monkeys. And there would be monkey homework.
Did you sign up for Le Tour??? If you did, it is AWESOME and you are going to LOVE IT!!! The best homework ever. :)
Hilarious! I love school supplies, too, and our world TOTALLY revolves around "school years!" Praying for you!
Seriously girl about the movie thing!! I am such a baby about movies, and when they pull one of those crappy endings, I throw a fit and pout for days!!!! Movie life SHOULD revolve around ME! I mean seriously people.
How have you been feeling?
