Weird Habits quiz
Ground Rules: The first player of this "game" starts with the topic "5 weird habits of yours" and people who get tagged need to write an LJ entry about their 5 quirky habits as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next 5 people to be tagged and list their names.

1. I need both hands to read. My right hand holds the book, my thumb keeps it open, and I turn the pages with my left. Alternatively, I hold the book down on the table with my left hand spread along the bottom edge, and turn the pages with my right. This is especially true the first time through paperbacks, when they're still stiff and have a penchant for closing of their own volition. This makes reading one while giving blood damn near impossible.

2. I work from right to left at work, but left to right at home. Pending documents start out on the farthest edge of that side, and they get closer to my centerline as the preliminary preparations are accomplished. Once they're done, they either get thrown into the trash or filed away. Moving papers around physically makes it seem like work is actually being done, even if the lion's share is actually done inside the magic box.

3. I read books in one place - there's a bed book, a lunchroom book, a bathroom book, and a living room book. Occasionally, one will be engrossing or enjoyable enough that it will follow me around.

4. I'd rather eat leftovers cold than re-heat them. The only exceptions to this are soup and stew, and sometimes pasta. Pizza, chicken, steak, pork, chinese, whatever - from fridge to fork to face.

5. I can't clean "just a little." Setting out to straighten up my desk in 20 minutes turns into cleaning three rooms over the course of an afternoon. This is why I'm either in a completely clean environment, or in organized kipple-chaos up to my eyebrows, because I know almost exactly where anything I need is (the exception being if it's something I didn't like, in which case, it can and will be lost fourteen inches from me at any given time - the wireless router I tore the house apart looking for last night was underneath a single piece of paper on my desk the whole time).

Who wants to parade their minor neuroses? I actually tagged folks yesterday, today it's voluntary. :-)

I can't believe this isn't all over the place this morning, but Incompetent Design got summarily bitchslapped out of court in Dover PA yesterday.

Boo. Fucking. Yah.

I just got a talking-to from my very-amused manager, who was apparently confronted by an offended personage of some sort, because I sent the following announcement to the supervisors, one of whom forwarded it verbatim to their team:
Hot off the presses is the Cup Cavalcade for this week in the Fresh Training section, wherein you and your minions will learn everything you could possibly want to know about the cups we sell to our customers!
Apparently, a few folks had to look up not only "minion," but "cavalcade" as well.

Calgon, get me the fuck out of here!
