    At work: I tend to take on too many tasks at once and then get frustrated when someone asks me to help them out with their tasks (but I know that I should be flattered because I'm the "get it done" girl). I am always overwhelmed by the fact that I'll have a stack of things to do, and people will wait in line to ask me to help them get their stuff done. Work is constantly a game of beat the clock. And a source of stress.

    At home: I place too much importance on order and organization. My DVDs used to be alphabetized, but then we had to move them to a cabinet because they were too numerous, and had to stack them instead of shelve them, and they aren't alphabetized anymore.

    Oh and also I am a human dictionary. I will argue the meaning of a word to the point of pulling out the Websters and finding it even if it were the most insignificant thing ever. It's like a magical ability.

    Damn that's more than one trait. *lesigh*

    Sometimes I'm oblivious to things around me. My husband also says that *at times* I lack common sense.


    Also, if I am really digging a band, I like to play the crap out of their music for days, sometimes weeks on end. It annoys even the smallest child in our house. :laugh:


    I also start many things at once, several never get finished.

    I am hopelessly punctually challenged.
    I also guess I fret too much, but I see it more as planning ahead.

    I get really fidgety when I get bored, which is bad when I don't want to make it obvious that I'm bored.

    I'm the random girl who's always doing 5 things at once so I'm rarely ever fully paying attention unless you tell me I need to. I get paid to have ADD at my job as a dispatcher. It's literally part of my training. Skim, adjust, take, attach, command, delay, lunch, assign, complete,copy, returning equipment,copy. Complete and available. 23 people, 2 hospitals and 3 screens. Yeah, that's my 530 am job. Lmao. I do however rarely touch a computer on the weekends and focus whole heartedly when I'm with loved ones. I also text while people talk to me. I know its bad but seriously people, I do this for a living lmao. Calm down, I don't text while I drive lol :)

    Hunting is a good burn. Do you eat back all your calories? :tongue:

    when I post things, I have a tendency to use a lot of commas instead of periods, which I would assume would be annoying to some people who like to have closure, but the book The Autumn of the Patriarch was written like that and it got a Nobel Prize, thus I think I should get one too!

    what else would he do with the people he kills?? isn't it against some norm to just leave them laying around?

    Well, for sport implies catch and release, or mounting your prey on a wall, not necessarily for food...

    I guess I was reading too far into the word hunt then. I thought he meant hunt as in kill, skin and eat.

    I'm a grammar guardian. My daughter and I will watch TV and say out loud the word that should have been said. Quickly not quick, for example. I try not to correct anyone's language except my grandchildren's but it's hard! I also get great fun hearing what others are saying but not meaning to say. Kinda like the old Pennsylvania Dutch saying: throw mama down the stairs her hat. My grammar isn't perfect, no one's is, but wow they way some people mangle it...

    Im a "say inappropriate things just as the room gets silent" person. Or the "whimsical, see where the day takes us/never plan anything" type. That one seems to drive a lot of people crazy. :laugh:

    I never apologize for making puns. They are ALWAYS intended!

    I LOVE puns! The cheesier the better! I also have a rambling problem. It happens more when I get over-tired. I'm only 25 and I'm guilty of telling my mom stories over and over without realizing it. She does it back, tho.

    I also have OCD, so I'm sure all my little 'quirks' are plenty annoying to an outside person that's not used to dealing with me.

    OCD, the volume of the tv must be on a even number
    Me too! And the radio in the car, etc. I Hate that 17 is usually the perfect volume but I can't just leave it there.

    Oh yes.

    Oh, if we ever hang out you can't be like that. It's a deal breaker for my OCD brain. Haha!

    Way to follow through. All you other easily distracted people take a leaf from this person's book! :)

    I will talk intensely about what I am interested in and not notice that other people don't give a damn about quantum mechanics or dinosaurs from the Cretaceous period.... that is, when I bother to talk to people at all. :) So I guess I am the weirdo that doesn't say much, until... she starts rambling about something boring. I am getting better at reading the signals though.
