A little while ago, ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
pyrafire risked my mild exasperation by tagging me to do a meme about five interesting or annoying habits I have. Of course this meme is utterly impossible for me, not having a single annoying aspect. So instead, I'll tell you what other people to consider some of my more endearing quirks:
1. Product rotation. Everywhere in my house, we properly rotate product: new toilet paper goes behind the old, the new cereal does not get opened until the old cereal is gone, freshly filled ice trays go on the bottom (or on the left in our new place). I'm somewhat militant about it, which I think people find charming.
2. Bat goes up. This is a "pot thing" that refers to the placement of the tiny pipe that goes in a dugout (a dugout being a little wooden box where you put already cleaned weed and a little pipe, very conveneint for people who enjoy the risk of smoking outside their homes). Most people face theirs down because they say...actually I don't know why they say it. But people look at me like I'm utterly insane for putting my in facing up. I don't want weed getting stuck in the spring. Anyway, people say it's weird, but those people are wrong.
3. My chair. No one should ever, under any circumstances, sit in my chair. In my own defense, my enforcement of this rule is kind and benevolent. Seriously though, get out of my chair. I will hurt you.
4. Obsessive taping of The Simpsons and a few other cartoon shows. Obviously, this is not wierd, and many of the people who say it is wierd like to stop by and watch, so they can shut up. When I started taping them, you couldn't just buy TV shows later. If you didn't want to wait for a rerun, you had to tape stuff you wanted to watch again. Nowadays, recording TV is less important and more prevailent. Isn't that funny? I'm not even taping LOST, because someday I will have a job again.
5. I can't think of anything I've left out. Maybe someone can suggest something quirky about me. Just remember that I have the internet, and as such, can find each and every one of you if someone gives me a ride.

In "look who died" news, the immortal Munson from Flash Gordon has died. Sad and all, but it also reminded me of this thing I read at the site where I go read when I want to read writers who are funnier than me. And that thing is located here. If you had no idea that this site existed, you should stop being such a lazy, slacking, idiot and avail yourself of the comedy already!
As for me, I had an awesome EMDR session today; worked out some things. My therapy focus currently is on avoiding self-sabotage. I imagine I'll be working that theme into my NaNoWriMo novel this time around. I'll also be dealing with the se7en deadly sins (yeah, they've officially changed the spelling of that), and tragic flaws and the like. So that should be enlightening and fun.
