After sleeping more than 25 hours in two days, it’s safe to say I did my part in kicking this stupid cold’s butt. Unfortunately, I did miss out on girl’s night with Eve and Annabel Lee, but I did have time to finally get to work on these two memes, so here ya go.

Meme #1
From both Ari and Erin:

The first player of this game starts with the topic five weird habits of yourself, and people who get tagged need to write an entry about their five weird habits as well as state this rule clearly. In the end, you need to choose the next five people to be tagged and link to their web journals. Don’t forget to leave a comment in their blog or journal that says “You have been tagged” (assuming they take comments) and tell them to read yours.

1. I curl my toes then drag them on the carpet. I don’t know why…I’ve been doing this since I was a kid.
2. I stick the word no at the end of a sentence. e.g., It’s hot out today, no? I think it’s a Jewish thing.
3. I hate having more than 10 emails in my inbox, so I will make time to respond in order to keep the inbox number below 10.
4. I will stay up late to unpack because I can’t stand having a filled suitcase just sitting there.
5. I like to drink my pulp-less orange juice with ice and a straw.

Alright Annabel Lee, you’re it.
