idiosyncrasy
I - d - i - o - syn - cra - sy
1. A structural or behavioral characteristic peculiar to an individual or group.
2. A physiological or temperamental peculiarity.
3. An unusual individual reaction to food or a drug.
List five of your own idiosyncrasies and then tag five friends to do the same.
1) Whenever I'm walking by myself, I try and estimate how many steps it is to my destination, and count down from my guess in my head to see how close I was.
2) I can't have anything touch between my toes. Toe socks and thong sandals freak me out. Even if I'm walking barefoot and a stray hair gets caught between my toes, it tickles so bad I have to stop walking, catch my uncontrollably twitching foot, and remove the hair.
3) I love grids. I organize my life in grids. My things-to-do-lists are boxed and divided by category. All of you that have seen how I kept track of Halloween preshow info have seen what Im talking about.
4) I wont eat almonds or most almond flavored things. My father hated almond flavor, and his running joke the entire time I was growing up was that if my Mom tried to give him anything almond-flavored, she must be trying to kill him with arsenic. So I learned to fear almond flavor.
5) I can taste the difference in almost any synthetic process done to food. From obvious ones like the difference between regular and diet to the subtle ones like the difference between regular OJ and Calcium added OJ.
Those were the first 5 to come to mind, but I know there are more.
It says I have to tag 5, so I'll tag
