September — Day 12

What nervous habit(s) do you have?

Oh, this one is easy. 😂

The bouncing leg.

Sometimes one leg. Sometimes apparently both of them have decided to participate. 🤣

If I’m nervous, impatient, concentrating hard or waiting for something, my leg can start bouncing without me even noticing. Then somebody points it out and suddenly I’m aware that I’ve been sitting there like I’m personally responsible for creating a small earthquake under the table. 😂

I used to have another nervous habit too:

Biting my nails.

I did that for years, and I’m very glad I managed to stop. My fingernails are probably grateful too. 🤣

It’s funny how the body finds these little ways of releasing nervous energy before our minds have even registered what we’re doing.

Some people fiddle with their hair. Some tap their fingers. Some chew pens.

Me?

Apparently I attempt to power the furniture with my legs.
