Terrible 32's

I'm embarrassed to admit, that I've become really whiny lately. 

I've caught myself whining, stomping my feet, pouting, having tantrums when I don't get my way, and talking baby talk. 

I honestly don't know how this happened.... I don't remember ever doing it before. In general I think of myself as a strong, independent woman.  This behavior is the exact opposite of that.  I think I did it once, somehow got the impression it was cute, saw I got my way, and now it's becoming a habit!  And Jerm is on to me.  I'll ask him to give me the remote when it's on the table right in front of me.  Or to change the radio station when I'm in the front seat right next to him.  I whine comments like "buuuuuuttttt Jeeerrrrmmmmmm........" and "I don't waaaannnnnaaaa". 

I think I'm most worried that I'll behave that way in front of other people!  Like, I'll be in the comfort of my own home and I'll have a visitor, and I'll unleash my inner 2 year old.  Eek!  I hate children that act like that.  Let alone grown-ass women acting like children! 

I need to nip this in the bud ASAP.  How does stuff like this become habit?  Why can't I form some good habits, like drinking lots of water and flossing daily?  Why are my habits always bad - like whining and smoking and leaving my shoes in the middle of the floor?  I mention smoking because believe it or not, I don't believe it to be an addition for me - but a habit.  I don't NEED to smoke; I have no symptoms by not smoking.  I could go days/weeks/months without a cigarette......and I don't get cranky, I don't have insomnia, I don't overeat (I just do that anyways).... until I drink.... and then I crave a smoke.  That first sip of beer gets me every time.  I can go days without smoking and easily smoke a pack in a night.  It's disgusting.  I know this, but it's a habit.  Kinda like whining I guess.....
