When I was a kid about 7 or 8 I noticed an odd odor and saw that my mom and my aunt were smoking.."a different" kind of cigarettes. My mom told me that they were "cigarettes without filters". Not knowing at the time that they were actually smoking marijuana, the next time I was at the store with her and she was buying some Parliament 100's, I asked if she could get the "cigarettes without filters" since they smelled really good.

Eversince then I was to afraid to even put my thumb near my mouth (up until I was 7 though)

When I used to suck in my boogers through my nose my baby-sitter said that I was eating my boogers whenever I did that. She said that if I keep doing that a booger tree is going to grow inside of me and I would have boogers coming out of my ears and mouth and nose and stuff. I got scared, but it didn't stop me from swallowing my boogers.

For as long as I can remember, I've been a nervous chewer. I would chew 'till my fingers bled, then I would just keep chewing anyway. One day, when I was 8 or 9, my father told me that the only things that we couldn't digest were bubble gum and nail clippings, and that my appendix would burst if I kept chewing. I think I stopped for a week... maybe. :-O

My dad lost the top half of his index finger about a year before I was born, and when I was little he told me that he had come loose and fallen off because he picked his nose too much. Then he would grab my finger and twist it and tell me mine was coming loose.

When I was about 6 or 7, I still sucked my thumb. Everyone in the family tried to get me to stop, but I wouldn't. I thought sucking my thumb was a good way to get my Daddy to come see me before he went to bed because he would alway remove my thumb from my mouth. Sometimes I still stick it in my mouth; I guess I still want my Daddy to come in and take it out.
