What sticks with you?

I was just realizing the other day how many wierd and random little things I do or say are from random childhood moments: some make me laugh, some psyche me out, and some just make me cry...but all interesting nonetheless.

I noticed that I shake water off of me after swimming before I dry off with a towel...why? I recall an experience from childhood when my family went to our notorious spot at Bear Lake. I got out of the lake, and shivering in my little 5-year-old skin, asked my dad for a towel. His response was, "just shake it off!" and I did!!!! Crazy how that has stuck with me.

Another thing that has stuck with me is snuggling. Everyone knows I grew up in a large family, so I never had a room (or a bed for that matter) to myself. Now, I seriously sleep with pillows surrounding my entire body...I'm not comfortable unless I am all snuggled up. If Jason's not right next to me, then a pillow is. Although, pillows are a nice replacement for the bumbs that once surrounded me from childhood years. Anyone who knows me or my family can just laugh at that one!

I would love to hear what has stuck with you! Hopefully I'm not the only crazy one.
