Reader's Digest (I love this magazine) recently published an article called Are You Normal or Nuts? with some questions from people explaining their unusual behaviour and asking how abnormal it is. Oh boy, do I have some that weren't covered, but I do share some of the odd traits - not the fear of heights, and not the problem getting a second date, but I'm wondering if you could guess which ones I do from reading the article? Just take a guess, and maybe even tell me one of your more embarassing or strange habits?
Some things I do that aren't mentioned - I have this hatred of lamps. I avoid them if I can, and even though I need one for my art desk, there's no way. I've been trying to remove my fingernails permanently for years, but they always grow back, and I'm overly superstitious. I'm also obsessed with eventually having all of my coathangers match, which is completely silly, since visitors won't see them. It's actually on my goals list. And once I start collecting something, I go overboard.
I was personally amused by the stepping on cracks one, since everyone around me laughs at how superstitious I am, and how obscure some of the ones I follow are. Also, the food one amused me, because I've been wondering forever if it was all women or just me who don't like to eat in front of people they don't know well, like when you're taken to an event? I prefer dates that don't involve food, or at least not until the end of the night, when I'm more comfortable around the guy. Which two were your favorites, and are you guilty of them? Sooooo...Are You Normal or Nuts?
