OK, so I got tagged. My mission: share six quirky things about myself. Here they are, in no particular order:
1. When I eat Skittles, I sort them by color. I never mix colors.
2. I assign gender to letters and numbers. 1 is male, 2 and 3 are female, 4 is male, and so on. Likewise with the letters - A and B are female, C and D are male, E is female, F is male, etc, etc.
3. I have never had wisdom teeth.
4. I have to check that I set my alarm two or three times a night before falling asleep.
5. I have such extreme arches in my feet that I leave two footprints (a total of four, if you count both feet.)
6. I have an unusual fear of ground hogs.
Well, that was actually sort of fun. Good idea, Rick. Glad I played. And if you read this, consider yourself tagged.

Do you hide on Feb 2nd?
I totally get the genderized numbers and letters... but B and C are feminine. I think I consider curvy letters/numbers as feminine.
C is a male. Always has been, always will be. Just like his bros M and T.
My 6 quirky things:
1. I love to mix Skittles
2. Letters and numbers are just that, as previously mentioned
3. I have wisdom teeth, but they've never been pulled (still there and I'm still stupid)
4. I have to ask Rob to check the alarm 2 or 3 times before I go to sleep (kinda hard to do when he travels)
5. My husband and my oldest child have such flat feet that they look like duck footprints
6. I have an unusual fear of bugs of any type (I married Rob because he kills all things crawly and doesn't hold it up in my face and go "ohhhh")
I could have created my own, but you're just so cool that I thought I would follow your lead. Thanks!
Mixing Skittles is the coolest. I like to make my own flavors like with Jelly Bellys. I've never understood your number is a gender thing. Do prime numbers take on an additional role?
Prime numbers have no additional role; however, they are generally found more attractive by the other numbers.
On a similar note, are vowels treated any differently? I would have thought consonants are male and vowels are female. You know, just like all dogs are masculine and all cats are feminine.
A and E are female, I,O, and U are male. Y is always male as well.
I'm with the on the dog/cat thing, though.
And since I never answered Rick's question: Ground Hog day does not haunt me, as Pete or Phil or whoever he is is presented as cute and cuddly. And Ground Hog Day was a great movie. But have you ever seen ground hogs in the wild? When they get scared, they go stiff as boards and look like the undead. It's creepy as heck.
Ground hogs control the time contiunuum. Bill Murray is still stuck.
Well, there's another perfectly good reason to fear them.
Are groundhogs related to possums? Because they freeze when scared as well. My dog thought he killed a possum once - he was so proud - until he found out the possum was playing possum. We didn't tell the poor dog that the vermit wasn't dead. We made him think it was removed. Hated to ruin his moment.
This might be my favorite comment thread ever. A+. I guess that's male.
