God Bless... Russell Crowe???

That's right, my little friends I said it! Although not a real fan of Mr. Crowe on the average day I was watchin a late night show...hmmm... can't recall who... sorry- anyway- OH!! watchin' late night with Jay Leno and Russel Crow is there as a guest. His answer to the current economic crises???
"What are there 300 million Americans? Give them each 1 million dollars to stimulate the economy... It's cheeper then the 700 billion" (I'm paraphrasing here folks- but you get the idea!).

What's that I hear? Cries of "Crowe for President!!"???
Maybe not, but I do think he should be in charge of the economy... at least until the my check comes in.

TAG!!

MJ tagged me. :)

Rules:
1. Link to the person who tagged you.
2. Mention the rules on your blog.
3. Tell about 6 quirks of yours.
4. Tag 6 fellow bloggers to do the same.

There are so many odd things about me, yes I actually Do recognize this people, but here are the required six:

1. I am not a lover of feet. Naked toes are just not my thing (and this is NOT a fetish-look the word up in the dictionary and you will see why ;) This will not shock anyone, and I know everyone was waiting for this one so lets just get that small tid bit of well known information out of the way. :) I hate them. I am immensely grateful for my own pair, but I don't want to see anyone elses. The only exception to this is baby feet. CUZ lets face it they are freakin' adorable. Why do I hate feet so much? I would tell you if I knew, but I don't. I am, however utterly fabulous at lying so if you want me to make up some story let me know and I'm sure I could accommodate you.

2. I have only recently re-joined the rice eating population of the world. This comes after a three or four year hiatus. There are two reasons for this- one involved feet, and I wont tell you the other here. Again, ask me later and I'll let you know. *warning* once you know these reasons you may not want to eat rice again either... don't say I didn't warn you.

3. I am the single most unorganized person in the world in EVERY part of my non eventful life- except work. Anyone at work who has gone to lunch with me when I drive will attest to this aspect of my personality. I truly do not understand why, but I cannot work if my desk is a mess. Were talking boarding in OCD (or DCO because that would be in alphabetical order -you're welcome Stacey-). I need the stapler, the tape dispenser, the key board and the adressograph 2000 all in their respective places. Not to mention that the computer monitor needs to be sitting at the correct angle. (This is not an invitation to mess my desk up when I walk away people - I know what you're thinking in your devious little minds...)

4. I always listen to Joni Mitchell when it rains. I love her voice, and it has always seemed rather rainy-day to me. I never intended it to become habit, but now I cannot truly enjoy a good rainy day with out listening to her in my car.

5. Speaking of driving in the rain... I have really no great fear of driving in the snow. A snow storm just doesn't scare me (with the rare exception or two every few years), but driving in the rain can leave me feeling petrified.

6. I have to have the perfect pen to write. It changes everyday. I am pretty picky with this. Some pens just don't feel right some days, and just because it worked on Monday does not mean it will work on Tuesday- or maybe it will work for an entire week. :) Oh- and I absolutely cannot use a pen that is supposed to have a cap- but it's missing. ARGG!!! This drives me nuts! The pen is then too short and will not do at all. It's all good though- I LOVE purchasing pens and other various paper products- but that is another quark all together!

There you go- 6 odd quirks about me. Your turn!

Don't Fret- You're identity is safe at the Arctic Circle

So I am running to work after school this afternoon, and feeling a little hungry, so I stop off at the Arctic Circle for some tasty tid-bits (mmm.. love their cheeseburgers friends). I pull up to the window and hand the girl my card... and she asks for my ID. My ID?? Now, I know what you must be thinking.. "Dawney, why were you making such a large purchase at a fast food place that it would require the minions who slave away there to make sure you are, in fact, you?" My total was $3.43. That's it. I smiled, and showed her my licence. I would like to point out here that the name on my licence and the name on my card are NOT the same.. so... not sure what she was looking for, but apparently she found it and proceeded to hand me something out of the window... a miniature clip board with two receipts and a pen for me to sign! ARE YOU KIDDING ME? Isn't it common knowledge that you don't have to sign for under like 20 bucks or something? If there is someone who wants to take my card and go to a fast food joint to use it- I'm thinkin that said thief probably needs it more than me and I say "Bon Appetite! my sneaky little friend!"
Moral of the story...
If someone takes your card and goes to Arctic Circle don't worry- the sleuth workers there will nab the fiend!
