Six weird things about me. Mmm. Be selective, Val.

1. I have to wear outfits that match or contrast attractively in colour (including jewellery and undies) - today it's mauve trousers, white blouse with mauve and lilac stripes over lilac vest top, white bra and panties, mauve socks with pink and white stripes and purple shoes.

2. I can't stand to see a curtain not hanging straight or a throw askew, but I can leave papers everywhere and forget to vacuum for days (well, wseeks, really).

3. I ask myself questions out loud in the second person and answer them in the same way.

4. I have 14 dollshouses and room boxes, none of which is finished.

5. I keep buying boxes to store things in, but I have nowhere to store the boxes. They are on the sofa.

6. I put important papers, mail that needs filing or answering, subscription magazines in their wrappers and other vital paperwork on top of the TV in the kitchen. Then when that's full I put things on the hifi. Then on the stairs, one after another. Eight of the twelve are now full from the edge to halfway across.
