A day late, because I didn't feel like doing this yesterday. And for some reason I'm having a hard time thinking of quirks... (I should have saved the "I drink coffee with Coffeemate" one for this category)

1. I don't kill spiders.
2. I never mix milk from a new carton with some from a nearly empty one (my mother taught me this - probably dates from getting milk fresh from a dairy, which she did as a child)
3. I kiss my hand to a magpie if I see one.
4. I often inadvertently refer to more than one sheep as "sheeps" - this was a family joke, dating to a foster-child we had at one time who did that. I get some funny looks.
