1. I just stuff the bills in my wallet.
They're all crumpled up. ;)

4. I was wondering too.
Does "anal" qualify?

7. Are you kidding?
The word "anal" isn't in my vocabulary. My room at home and my dorm room look like bombs went off in them, and my wallet looks like a war zone.

9. Did you know "anal" spelled backwards is "Lana"?
I'll never think about Lana Turner the same way again.

11. And I know exactly how much change is in my pocket....
to the penny. Grandma told me to watch my nickels and dimes and the dollars will take care of themselves. I'm still waiting. :)

I stop at three on your poll. So, is that anal enough to land a date with Lana Turner in my dreams?

12. There are dollar bills stuffed willy nilly in my purse...and about 8 lbs
of change rolling around the bottom of it. I am a money slob... Shame on me.

13. I can never find anything in Miz t.'s purse.
If the answer to "Where's the...?" is "In my purse.", I just hand it to her.

14. MrG and you should have a beer. He is always asking me why
i feel the need to carry a bunch of wadded up paper around. This is all he sees when he looks in my purse. Once he tried to straighten it out...once. :)

15. Paper towel or napkin.
She always has one.
I've never noticed that she drools all that much.

20. You never know when you need one...
to write a note...in broken yellow crayon. Man I miss Erma Bombeck. That was her line. ;)

16. I gave up ironing them 30 years ago.
Edited on Thu Jan-27-05 06:30 PM by TahitiNut
Well, I gave up ironing altogether 30 years ago. I'm just not anal enough to drag out the board and iron just for my wrinkled money. But it's tempting. :dunce:

18. My great-aunt Mattie did. No kidding.
When she gave me cash gifts for birthday, whatever, she'd try to get brand new bills from the bank.
In her later years she'd just spray on a little starch and iron them.
I'm serious.

19. "No kidding"? "I'm serious"?? Did I give the impression I was kidding?
Edited on Thu Jan-27-05 06:42 PM by TahitiNut
I wasn't. :dunce: I've used spray starch. :dunce: I still spend the older bills first.

I'm anal. I admit it. It's the first step to recovery. :silly:


I may have lied, though. I seem to remember ironing my shirts a couple of years ago and dragging out my wallet and ironing my currency for old times' sake.
