strange habits - Page 3

Whats the deal with coffee? I have the same problem: coffee must be in a mug. At work, it is a specific mug that I've used for years and while I will drink coffee out of a styrofoam cup from the cafeteria it seems to taste different, somehow.

If the volume on a radio is displayed digitally, I will set it to a number divisible by five.

Hunh, I wonder if there's a name for that. On the radio, TV, and whatever else I have, I have to have the volume set to an odd number or I can't stop thinking about it.

It is different. Styrofoam leeches evil poisons into your coffee.

I have established my strangeness previously, but I will drink out of a suspiciously dirty looking mug before I will use styrofoam. I keep a stainless steel travel mug in the car in case I decide to drink coffee somewhere that a mug or paper cup (with anti-heat snuggy) is not available.

Oh, and at least twice a year, the work mug goes home for a trip through the dishwasher, whether it needs it or not.

Coffie cups - I like those big coffie cups with tops you get at truck stops , not the tall skinny ones ( stainless or other material ) they don't hold enough , no give me those big fat roundish cups with tops , they can't fit in the cup holder ,and hold about 20 OZ , how else can i keep my self awake but diveing for my cup of coffie as it rolls off of the cup holder !!!!

Beer Glasses - JUST that a proper pint GLASS , ceramic , metal or horn are acceptable , but NEVER EVER FUCKING PLASTIC !!!! There are Puriety laws you know !!!!

Sleeping - no problem here , i can sleep just about ANY where .
Showering - i hit the high points , top to bottom , if i have time i turn the temp UP and steam for a bit . AHHHHHHH !!!!!
Shoes - my shoes or boots or sandles are ALLWAYS placed side by side and placed out of the way . I buy for comfort NOT style . Weird though style catches up with me , i have been wearing river (Teva style ) sandles and light hikeing boots for for decades .
