Mama Blu's

Cover Charge Sun 12/29

Hey y'all!

Phew! Just got a chance to sit down and relax for a little bit. Have I ever told you guys how much I hate grocery shopping?

The worst is when I get weird looks from people at the checkout line. I can't help it. I have this quirk. I hate to just jumble everything up on the counter. I tend to separate the groceries. Frozen foods together, drinks together, produce together... you get the people. AND I am particular about the order. I put all my heavy items on first and then my soft squishy and/or breakable things at the end. Needless to say there is a lot of backing and forthing while I put things up on the conveyor belt thingie.

Today I thought I was safe as Hubby had opted to stay at home. Normally he likes to switch the stuff around while I am not looking. :rolleyes: But sadly, no. Turns out the man behind me thought it was quite humorous. I happened to meet his eyes while I was organizing everything and I swear he was laughing at me!

Please tell me I am not that odd. Or at the very least, how about for tonight's cover you share one of your little quirks or odd habits? It would certainly make me feel better. :eek:

Blu :kiss:

Odd I thought that was how you were supposed to put your items on the conveyer belt. I always do as well. :) :rose:
Hmm quirks I'm sure I have a lot of them but it's hard to recognise them in yourself. I don't have any bad ones like Sheldon's must knock Three times, but I do have the one of locking the door and the checking it too make sure it is locked even though I just locked it.

I do that too! What's worse is realizing I just locked the front door but left my keys on the key rack thingie inside. :eek:

I do the same when grocery shopping. But any attempt on my part to validate you as 'not odd' for this quirk would be useless, considering the source of said validation.
In addition, I also insist on bagging my own groceries. For one thing, I can usually do it faster. For another, I know my squishables won't be squished and my crushables won't be crushed. I never say this, of course. What I tell the bagger is that I do it myself so if anything is damaged when I get home I know it's nobody's fault but mine.

Oh MsBlu, you're not crazy at all. I do the same thing. Maybe not to the extent but I do place things in groups.

I have several quirks and habits ...

My food can not touch, well a little bit but I wont pile food on other food. I have to get into the bed from the left side. No matter what.

I'm sure there are more but I wont bore you ...

:rose:

hee hee.... squished squishables and crushed crushables... Love it!

Perhaps we are not the odd ones? Perhaps those people that just jumble their groceries up on the conveyor belt are odd. Yeah, I think I will go with that. :D

Actually I think it is quite interesting.

Do you sleep on the left side of the bed?

In my wallet all bills will be front facing and in order of decreasing order...20's 10's 5's
If not I will change them every time...lol
Can you tell I used to work cash?

[laughs]

You want a project? My house seriously needs to be organized. I keep trying to do it, but apparently I suck at it. At this point I have given up and just watch Hoarders in order to feel better about myself. :eek:

Do you sleep on the left side of the bed?

Nope, I sleep on the right side of the bed and end up in the middle. :D

Another thing is, if I'm going to drink a glass of milk. I have to place it in the freezer for about 5 mins or so. The only time I don't put it in the freezer is for a bowl of cereal ...

Not feeling so strange now are ya?

:D :eek:

:D :eek:

I am feeling much better about myself now. :D

Especially considering I do the same thing when I drink milk. It must be in a glass and sit in the freezer until frosted. I can't stand room temperature milk. It even smells bad to me. :)
 
Cover charge

I sort them too, mainly because the checkout people are idiots and don't care. They know enough to keep the cleaning products away from the food but that's about it. There's one girl who's 16, looks 12, and actually threw a 4lb chuck roast into the same bag as my eggs and said " Oopsie" and giggled. Broke 4 of them. Then got pissed when I made her call someone to get me a fresh dozen. But I digress. Yes, I sort and wouldn't do it any other way so you're not odd Miss Blu, or maybe we both are.....

My little quirk is every morning before I leave the house I get 4 quarters, 2 dimes, 1 nickel and 2 pennies to put in my pocket to start the day. Been doin' it forever.

Hi Nut ...

Why do you do the coins?

Just curious
 
MMMMM giving me naughty thoughts :D Strip off and lie on left side of the bed and make you crawl over me to get to your side :) :kiss: :rose:

[laughs] That wouldn't work with me. Just because I am always cold. Any part of me that touched you would send you into hypothermia. :eek:

I am wondering the same thing! Share, Mr. Wonderful?:kiss:

LOL sorry won't work. Missus is the same and she calls me her electric blanket because my body temp is naturally high, so you are free to snuggle. :) :kiss:
