Some of my quirks

While driving today I was thinking about some of the little quirky things I do, the way I prefer certain things to be done, things that bother me, things about me that probably aren't normal, but hopefully are endearing, not annoying. So I thought I'd share some of them with you. You may or may not know these things about me. Please feel free to add to the list if you've noticed any other quirks.
I hate hot air blowing on my face
It doesn't matter how cold I am, I can't stand it in my face. In the car I always have the heater on the feet function. I can't sleep at night if the heater is blowing on my face. The blow dryer, hand dryers, heaters of any kind. I love them, just not above the shoulders. To tell the truth, hot air in my face makes me ornery.
I like my drinking water room-temperature
I don't like drinking cold water. It freezes my throat. I like to drink water water fast, and it's easier when it's not too cold for my insides. Besides, cold water will give you a sore throat :) (If you've ever been to Argentina, you'll understand why that last statement is funny)
My sneezes
They're quirky. I don't really understand why. But every time I sneeze, my brothers make fun of me.
I don't really mind what temperature my food is
It's true. I just don't like it super hot or super cold. But I'll eat food straight from the fridge that should be warmed up. Sometimes I like it better that way. Like pizza.........and french toast. Well, maybe not better, just different.
I can't sleep on my back..........or with socks on
No matter how hard I try, I just can't do it.
I'm allergic to the cold
No joke. I don't just hate being cold, but I actually break out in hives if my skin is cold and gets rubbed by my clothes. Let's just say that winters are long for me.

Your sneezes are stupendous Kirsti! You should be glad they're so...refined. We boys just have to feel like our faces exploded to get a good feeling from the sneeze. ;)

Wow I didn't know a lot of those things. I do remember the no socks when sleeping thing though. And since you are allergic to the cold I think you should move to Arizona and be my friend here!

You forgot the sleep talking and walking quirk...
