Quirk Time
I have been memed by Catholic Fire.
Rules: "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 are tagged" (assuming they take comments) and tell them to read yours."
- Some of my parodies have come to me while at Eucharistic Adoration or reading the Divine Office.
- I would rather spend five hours writing a program to do a repetitive computer tasks than to spend five minutes doing that task.
- I Christianize lyrics of secular songs in my head being very charitable in their interpretation. Tool to me can be a praise band.
- I will read anything in sight while eating, product labels etc and a pair of pants that can't fit a paperback book in the back pocket are worthless to me.
- I still just love saying the words Pope Benedict.
Pass on to Ipsissima Verba, De Civitate Dei, Mixolydian Mode, Holy Fool, Aliens in This World.
Known as 
#2 is not a wierd habit. It is the definition of computer programming. And it has a wonderful heritage, don't you know?
Rovol seated himself beside the younger man, like one organist joining another at the console of a tremendous organ. Seaton's nimble fingers would flashg here and there, depressing keys and manipulating controls until he had exactly the required combination of forces ... He would then press a tiny switch and upon a panel full of red-topped, numbered plungers the one next in series would drive home, transferring to itself the assembled beam and releasing the keys for the assembly of other forces. Rovol's fingers were also flying, but the forces he directed were seizing and shaping materials, as well as other forces. The Norlaminian physicist set up one integral, stepped upon a pedal and a new red-topped stop precisely like the others, and numbered in order, appeared as though by magic upon the panel at Seaton's left hand. Rovol then leaned back in his seat - but the red-topped stops continued to appear, at the rate of exactly seenty per minute, upon the panel, which increased in width sufficiently to accomodate another row as soon as a row was completed.
Rovol bent a quizzical glance upon the younger scientist, who blushed a firey red, rapidly set up another integral, then also leaned back in his place, while his face burned deeper than before.
"That is better, son. Never forget that it is a waste of energy to do the same thing twice, and that if you know precisely what is to be done, you need not do it personally at all. Forces are faster than human hands, they are tireless, and they neither slip nor make mistakes."
[E. E. "Doc" Smith, SkyLark Three (1930)]
Re: #3 I do the same thing. My favorite is "All I Need" by the Temptations.
Lyrics from: http://www.oldielyrics.com/lyrics/the_temptations/all_i_need.html
Oh, this heart of mine, carries a heavy load.
When I think about how I've hurt you so.
After you've been, been so good to me.
I've been unfaithful, darling, I've caused you misery.
The feeling of guilt, oh, it tortures me.
And only you, my darling, oh, can set me free.
And darling, all, all I need
Is just to hear you say,
You'll forgive me, forgive me baby.
All, all I need, to have you touch my hand,
Say you'll understand, baby.
...
I know, I made a big mistake.
When all your love, darling, yes I did forsake.
It's on my mind, it's in my heart.
This guilty feeling tearing me apart.
With every step I make, every breath I take.
I'll make it up to you, I'll make it up to you.
Undo the wrong I've done, undo the wrong I've done.
I've been unfaithful, I know it's true.
But I'll make it up to you.
Captures the heartache of sin very well.
