Day 9: I’m a copycat

Margalit posted her True Confessions today, and you know what? It was a great idea. So, I’m gonna do it too. Call me a copycat.

-I am obsessive-compulsive about recycling. I think it started when I received a book called something along the lines of 101 Things Kids Can to To Save the Earth. But, you know what? My apartments are so not recycling friendly, and the stuff is taking over my apartment.

-Kind of along the lines of the above, I’m obsessive about using things up. I get great joy in using the last of hair gel, or eyeshadow, or whatever. I like to get rid of things, in a way.

-I don’t like having things that belong to other people for very long. So, for instance, I have a tupperware container that belongs to my friend Carrie. I washed it right when I got home, and it’s waiting in my car to give to her again. I honestly wish people felt the same about my stuff, because there are some VERY overdue books out there.

-If I’m super stressed out, I do laundry. Laundry has a definite beginning, middle, and end – making it something I have complete and utter control over. Also, I love the smell of Downy.

-If my cat is sleeping and she looks SUPER cute and cuddly. I must wake her, I cannot help it.

-I am completely uncapable of having only one knitting project going at a time. Right now, I believe I am working on 3 or 4 things.

-I hate leaving and listening to voicemail messages. Seeing the blinking red light on my office phone makes me cringe. Please know (MOM) if you leave me a message longer than 30 or so seconds. I delete it. I think “Call me back, bye” is a sufficient message.

-I really hate paying full price for things. Thus, I am in love with coupons. Really, really in love with them. If you’ve every been to Target with me, you know this, because I probably gave you a coupon for your toothpaste.

So, what are your true confessions? Are you as quirky as I am?

Totally old Diesel shoes. They are a size 10, which makes me feel dainty.

    We have some very weird things in common. Very weird.

    And I haven’t paid for a tube of toothpaste in I don’t know how long, thanks to the one-two-three punch of 50-cent coupons and Kroger’s regular 10/$10 sales on Colgate and Crest, AND their generous coupon-doubling policy. cha-CHING!

        Ok I must say this, with shame. I do not recycle. At all.

        But I donate things to Goodwill a lot. And I also love buying things on sale. The cheaper the better.

        And now I’m trying to remember if I’ve borrowed any books from you that I haven’t returned.
