I'm Strange


This will come as no surprise to many of you, the fact that I am strange. This came to my attention again today when the hubby and I were eating the fruit and nut mix he likes. I realized I was doing the strange thing I do with food when I had divided the different nuts in the palm of my hand.

You see I do this very strange thing with all kinds of things; chips, M&M's sweet tarts and now nuts. I didn't think it was strange until I did it at work one day and I realized Patrick was watching me eat my M&M's. Here's the deal, I like to separate my M&M's by color and quantity. Usually in my hand, I will take the M&M's and run them up my fingers, green, red, blue then by quantity, 2 red, 5 green, 8 blue, then I eat the red ones first, then green, then blue.

With chips I like to eat the broken ones first then the whole ones, Sweet Tarts all of one color then the others and so on. Today with the nuts I separated all the sunflower seeds, soy nuts, strange green nuts, raisins, cherry's and so on.

I'm sure I do other strange things, actually I know I have other strange habits. Don't we all!

It's these quirks that make us unique! My list of them is monstrous!

I don't do that with M&M's because they all taste the same.

Mixed nuts? Check.
Skittles? Check.
Jellybeans? Check.

Etc.
