Title: Annoying Habits
Basil - October 6, 2006 07:39 PM (GMT)
What are some of your spouses most annoying habits/obsessive behaviors?
I would start the list, but given the current fragility of my marriage, I'd rather not.
Here's one, though:
String can drive herself crazy looking for misplaced things. It's probably not to the level of clinical OCD, but if somethings lost it can detain String from moving on to other things for quite awhile. This is probably not that uncommon, but I'm shooting for something not too offensive.
I know one annoying habit she would probably say about me: When I'm tired I start scratching and rubbing my face. I have no idea why, but I do tend for feel pressure around my temple and forhead. It relaxes me. I need a good facial massage someday--maybe some cucumbers on my eyes, etc. :unsure:

Unlike myself who is perfect, wifey has a few flaws that I pray get fixed.
Wifey blows her nose EVERY-MORNING upon awaking...whether I'm asleep or not. Typically VERY wet and very LOUD.
I find her long, brown hair EVERYWHERE, esp in the food, clothes, shower and my buttcrack.
She has a tough time completing tasks...she'll fold clothes but never put away, get milk out and let it sit out all day, etc.
She spends money like we have two incomes and we really only have one...and compared to most, it's really only half an income.
Shall I go on?

Typical phone call between Matt and me
Me: Hey, hun, what time will you be home tonight?
Matt: Well, I have a patient at one and then I have a break until three and I need to go to the bank and the pet store. But the bank and pet store are opposite directions, so I'll only have time to go to the pet store so I can be back for my patient at three.
Me: Okay, so what time will you be home?
Matt: Well, then I have 10 patients between 3 and 5 and I need to catch up on some accounting.
Me: Okay, so what time will you be home?
Matt: Well, I'll have to stop at the bank on my way home since I won't have time when I'm running my other errands and my last patient is at 5:30 and I need to work on some filing.
Me: Okay, so what time will be home?
Matt: Well, I have to feed the fish before I leave and shut off all the lights and lock the door...
Me: JUST TELL ME WHAT FREAKIN' TIME YOU ARE GOING TO BE HOME!!!!!
Matt: Oh, I'll be home at 7:00.

String is a copy/technical writer's dream--she has a complusion to read every label, drug information insert, or mailing that she stumbles across--stuff that virtually no one else ever glances at. Ask her for a summary of the label from a box of Frosted Mini Wheats. . . or actually please don't!

I how Misty would reply... My language... I swear like a Drunken Irish Sailor, that just dropped a 50 lb weight on his little buddies.....
Misty has a tendancy to porcrastinate worse than me ( i do it too just not as bad) and she tends to get down on herself and her looks and that tends to irk me more than just a lot.....

Matt sounds like my wife. :wall:
Her most annoying habit: obsessive cleanliness. :urgh:
My most annoying habit: slovenliness. Hmmm. See a problem here? :haha:

Man I think I'm married to Squat. Your wife sounds as annoying as me. scary, very scary. :unsure:
I do tend to over do and not finish stuff, like I'll be cleaning up the kitchen and realize I have a load of clothes in the dryer so I fold them, forgetting that I was washing dishes in the first place. Then the clothes will sit on the kitchen table for a day or so, waiting to be put away. I'll get it all done, just not in a particular order. Since I pride myself on my ability to multi task :rollseyes: I really can do everything at the same time. That makes my husband crazy.
He chews his nails when he's anxious. I just think that's nasty. :blink: He's also a shover. Rather than put something away in the right place, he'll just put it away where it fits. So we tend to lose things or just make more work for me later on. Otherwise, the guys a saint for being able to handle me all this time...and still like me!
