Quirks :)

I started keeping a list of some of my quirks because I find them amusing Slight smile so I thought I'd share some of mine, you can add your own ones to the thread below if you feel like it: 

- I can't touch hangers - they freak me out.

- certain kinds of pasta are WRONG.

- particular bowls in my kitchen are for specific things (pasta, cereal) and cannot be mixed up.

- I haven't worn underwear since the pandemic.

  • Does anyone else get phrases or tunes stuck in their head for days and days? I've had one popular Christmas song (I won't say wich just so you don't get it too!) in my head for days, it just goes round and round and round in the background of my mind.. 

    A good example of this happened this morning.

    I was watching a suicidal slug trying to drink from a steep sided water bowl.

    It reminded me of yesterday, when I got a bug down my top and didn't like the feel of it against my skin (I rescued it).

    This reminded me of a Peter Greenaway film (A Z and 2 noughts) where 2 naked people are covered in snails.

    This reminded me of Michael Nyman, the composer, who wrote a lot of music for PG's films.

    This in turn reminded me of his music for The Piano.

    I am now walking around the house going da - da - da - da - da -da -da to the theme of the The Piano.

    This will probably now last for days and drive me and anyone unlucky enough to be in my vicinity, nuts.
