Practically Perfect - Quirks an all!

There is this huge likelihood, or temptation, of re-inventing yourself as a blogger.
I was recently catching up with a friend (Hi Dee) who tells it how it is. If there is a wart in sight - well!!! I let it out that I was a new blogger. In a moment of weakness / braveness I gave her my blog address. I found myself apologizing straight up. The 'me' that I am representing in this blog was perhaps a little different than the 'me' that I had shared with my friend. In my own defense I have to say that Both 'me' representations are more or less true to who I am, or have been or hope to be.
Recently I have been reading other blogs and was interested to see a
'Keeping it real' spot. http://familyrevised.blogspot.com/ (sorry! As yet I have absolutely no idea how to link, or grab buttons). Anyhow I thought this idea fit in really well with my thoughts on re-inventing yourself as a blogger.

So here is the beginning of my lists of imperfections (habits, bothersome irritants or quirks).

KEEPING IT REAL

1. I often leave the tap running while I clean my teeth.
2. I swig milk from the carton.
3. I have been known to let a rip snorting snore escape.
4. I watch way too much realty T.V
5. I practically over-analyze everything.
6. I commence my journey and then buckle up my seatbelt.
7. I use food as my comfort, reward or boredom buster.
8. I drum my fingers when stressed or when engaged in complex thinking.
9. I will tell a little white lie to save face or protect someone else.
10. I eavesdrop on other people's conversations while using public transport.
11. I possibly use way too much toilet paper for environmentalists.
12. I have participated in some gossip.
13. I have plagiarized.
(12 and 13 are confessions)
14. I tend to move in to 'lecture' mode when trying to make a point with the kids.
(working really hard on that one!)
15. I love wearing flannelet PJ's.

I am going to ask my kids to come up with 5 annoying habits of mine. I will post them later. May as well get 'really' real.
