If I could sleep forever...

Before you look at today's post title and go thinking I'm depressed or something, I just want to ensure that everyone knows that a) it's from a Dandy Warhols song, b) I'm really, really, supremely exhausted today and c) not forever, but maybe hibernating through winter wouldn't be the worst? I mean it obviously would be the worst and I'd rather not voluntarily miss out on an entire chunk of my life, but you know what I'm getting at. Chunky knit scarves are slowly but surely becoming a wardrobe staple again, which isn't annoying quite yet but I can imagine will become so in a few short weeks.
The lovely Jenn of Over Obsessorized has tagged me in "6 Unspectacular Quirks", wherein I'm required to state...well, 6 unspectacular quirks about myself and then tag 6 other bloggers. I have more unspectacular quirks than I believe I could ever possibly count out, but I'll try to narrow it down.
1. I absolutely, 100% cannot stand to have incomplete albums. I literally do not have even one single in my iTunes. Artwork, genre and every other field imaginable also have to be consistently, meticulously filled out. It borders on OCD.
2. My entire apartment can be messy save for the kitchen and I'll be happy. A clean kitchen is a sound mind, most everything else is extraneous.
3. I type 80 words per minute, but only use two fingers. It confuses everyone who sees it.
4. I feel out of sorts if I don't read my horoscope first thing in the morning.
5. Listening to Coast to Coast AM as I fall asleep is an unmissable ritual of mine.
6. I haven't used cash to pay for anything in as long as I can remember because I debit anything and everything. No wonder my card has been replaced 16 times at this point.
Tagging certain bloggers is always the hardest part of completing these things for me, as I really do adore all of you...however, the amazing and gorgeous Chauss of Je Ne Sais Quoi has given me the 'I Love Your Blog' rose award (thank you!!!) and I'm to tag others in that as well. In the spirit of hitting two birds with one stone, I'm tagging the following wonderful bloggers in '6 Unspectacular Quirks' AND 'I Love Your Blog' to complete or not complete as they wish...
Nita-Karolina
Blonde Hair, Blue Jeans
Frassy
Lesse Looks
Stompface
Strawberry Kitten
What is Reality Anyway?
I hope everyone is having a wonderful Thursday, as I certainly am - I'm picking up my self-bestowed vintage presents in but a few short hours, some of which you'll no doubt see in tomorrow's post. Stay tuned!

    Oh thanks for the award sweet! I did the 6 quirks fairly recently, so I won't bore you all with that again. But thanks for thinking of me.

    You are making me want my chunky knit scarf again. But it is so hot here at the moment. Which is very exciting too!
