Yes, another meme ...

I know, I know … I’ve been a bad blogger lately. I’m taking the easy way out with pictures and videos. And now, in that theme, a meme from Claudia:

Seven random and/or weird things about myself:

1. I can’t sleep if I’m alone in the bed. I’m used to having Scott and at least one (large) dog, which is usually lying on top of me. Whenever I travel and have a bed to myself, I can’t sleep.

2. Sometimes I hate driving by myself because I’m scared of getting into an accident and not knowing exactly what to do. I feel like I always need someone to “take care of me” in any situation that involves my car.

3. I can’t imagine anyone who looks worse in the color red than I do. When I wear anything red, I notice every blemish and imperfection anywhere on my skin. Red makes me feel ugly.

4. I obsessively count the number of stairs from one floor to another – in my head, not out loud. I don’t always notice I’m doing it, but I do it. I also count the number of steps from one room to another, but not as much as I do stairs.

5. I always have to be doing something with my hands when I’m walking alone in public – either have them in my pockets, or carrying something. Sometimes I’ll carry my cell phone or a pen just to have something in my hand.

6. I’m more confident and friendly when I’m wearing a suit than at any other time.

7. I feel uncomfortable around people who are taller than I am (I’m 6’2”). I’m not used to it and I feel intimidated, even though I have a friend who’s 6’4”.

That’s it. Tag yourself and play along if you’re so inclined.

I am the same way with wearing suits. I'll count the number of steps, too. Even though my offices are on the third floor, the number of steps up (56) equals five floors. ;-)

You know they have medication for that counting thing. So you're 6'2"? I had no idea you were such a tall drink of water. ;-)
