So what if I'm quirky...

I'm it! This is a quirks tag. You have to list 6 quirks about you and then tag 6 people... or however many you want really. I added a picture for each tag just for some extra fun. So here it is:

1- I love, Love, LOVE fun sock!!! Can't have enough socks right? What if they are striped, polka dotted, furry, argyle, etc, etc, etc??? The options are endless. About the only time I wear white socks is when I'm going running (which is about never) because they usually are better quality. But maybe that's another reason I hate running. A part of me is missing. If you find fun, colorful, patterny socks that have a high % in cotton and are good for physical activity, such as running, please inform me. What am I wearing today? Green and pink argyle. Sigh. :)


This is pretty much what my sock drawer looks like.
2- Anyone who knows me knows that I love cereal. It is a staple of life. It's been a favorite since I was a kid. I would take bags to dance, church, school, you name it. There have been days where that is all that I have eaten. The favorite question is a hard one because there are just so many splendidly good ones and others that just bring back memories. For today the favorite is Frosted Flakes. Just like Tony the Tiger says... They're Grrreat!

Look at all those options? One of the greatest sights of life.


3- I am a huge fan of Rock Band and Guitar Hero. The end of Spring semester 2007 I had Guitar Hero at UVU for stressbusters. It was in the halls for a few hours for 2 days where students could play it. Where was it the rest of the time? In our office where we would play it non stop instead of studying for finals. I went from playing on easy to hard in 2 days. Ridiculous you say? No way. AWESOME! This past summer at EFY we hooked up Rock Band in the gym where it was projected on the wall. Oh yeah! Great times. Oh, and if you didn't know, I am part of a Rock Band band called Jenny and the Rippers. We're pretty much amazing. We'll be having a reunion show coming up this month sometime I'm sure so if you'd like to witness the glory, please contact me.

4- I'm a fidgeter. Not like twitches or anything but part of me is always moving. Here are a few examples (some are recent and others are from my childhood, but tend to come out once in a while): 1) rub the edge of a blanket- all the way around and around and around..., 2) pick at my lips, 3) crossed legs and the one on top just bounces away, 4) clog/dance pretty much anywhere. I've always got a song or beat in my mind and it's just got to come out somewhere, 5) scratch backs or play with hair- I've been told I'm quite good so if you get the chance, I suggest you take it ;)

So this picture doesn't really go with the post too much but I thought of clogging and love it. This is me and my brothers after I got my 10 year All-America Team jacket. Good times...

5- I am not a fan of posing cutesy pictures. Love them on others, not with me. I am always making some sort of face in pictures. Once in a while you'll get a nice, old-fashioned smile out of me, but those just aren't as fun.


Um, not much else to say about that.

6- I have quite the vast knowledge of music as far as lyrics go. I can remember lyrics to soooo many songs although I couldn't tell you who sings it or what it's called. I love listening to music, learning of new artists, as well as listening to the old classics. At my new job I had a co-worker tell me that I am like a 40 yr. old in a young persons body because of the songs I knew. I don't konw what that's supposed to mean really but I'll take it.

This is Glen Hansard of the Swell Season. He was my favorite back in March and still is. He is THE man. Highly recommended.


Now I have to tag people. Uh... I tag Erin, Karlie, Shalene, and all those that feel urged to.
