5 quirkky things about him

He was "Mr Computers" when they first came out--taught computer classes, helped other teachers learn to use them, was a master programmer, etc. But now, he can't even get on a website without panicking!

He can hardly walk to the bathroom from his bed in bare feet--he has to have socks and shoes on AT ALL TIMES

He is Mr Laundry--and is very particular about how it must be done. He does it all at our house, and DON'T TOUCH HIS LAUNDRY.

This I love about him--He NEVER leaves a mess behind! He cleans up after himself, never leaves his clothes anyplace but where they belong--not even a sock on the floor EVER!

He hates to talk on the phone and would rather drive 50 miles to talk to someone to avoid a call!
