25 things......

I just copied and pasted this from my facebook account. Boring, I know. Deal with it. :)

1. There are 5 things in life that I really hate doing: washing my face before bed, stopping to fill up at the gas station, talking on the phone, eating at fancy restaurants, washing dishes.
2. My favorite food of all time is potato pizza from Stevi B’s. I could eat it every day. No question.
3. I have no idea how to make small talk. I just end up either saying something strange or saying nothing at all. For this reason, I think a lot of people who don’t know me that well think I’m either a weirdo or a snob. I am neither and it makes me sad bc I actually really like talking to people. I just suck at it.
4. I can’t sleep with a shirt on (I feel like I’m choking), but I have to wear pajama pants (I don’t like my leg skin to touch).
5. Perfect teeth bother me.
6. I went through a few really weird months during grad school where I was totally obsessive-compulsive about light switches and doorknobs in my house. After locking a door and/or turning off a light, I had to touch (the doorknob and/or light switch) three or four times with the palm of my hand or I would get a really creepy feeling that wouldn’t go away. I don’t know what that was all about, but I’m glad I don’t do it anymore.
7. The thing that annoys me most about people is selfishness. I wish that everyone cared just a little bit more about their fellow man and that they would actually go out of their way to make other people happy every once in awhile. The world would be a better place.
8. I really hope that I’ll want kids one day.
9. I’m a vault when it comes to other people’s secrets, but I have a hard time keeping my mouth shut about my own. If I’m thinking it, I’m probably going to say it.
10. I’m a very bad runner. One time I ran three miles on the treadmill and I’ve never been more proud of myself. The problem is, most people I know can run three miles no problem, so nobody else shared in my excitement.
11. I almost never cry about things that actually affect me personally but I’ll cry at the drop of a hat about something ridiculous.
12. A stripper once told me that I have nice boobs. She only saw them covered with a shirt but I took it as a compliment.
13. If I do end up having kids one day, I’m adopting them. I have absolutely zero desire to have them myself. In fact, the thought of having a baby inside my body totally creeps me out.
14. Somewhat related to #7, I sometimes daydream about going to live in an ashram. I think it would be nice. Very nice, actually.
15. I have a terrible fear of getting my fingers caught in things (electric mixers, doors, etc…)
16. I don’t get stressed out very often, even when I should. I’m chronically calm.
17. I love accents. I wish I had more of one.
18. When I was younger, I used to pretend I was the Fonz.
19. I love hats. I would wear a hat every day if I could.
20. Girls make me nervous. #3 is much worse when I’m trying to talk to a girl. I blame this on the fact that I never had many girl friends growing up.
21. I love when a series of events happens and none of it makes any sense at the time and then all of a sudden you realize that all of those things happened in order to get you to this certain point in your life and you realize how crazy life is and how little control you really have over the whole thing. I think it’s exciting.
22. I like Single Me much more than I like Relationship Me. I’ve decided that I’ll never date seriously/marry anyone unless I happen to come across someone who can make me exactly as happy as I make myself. While I think that it’s pretty unlikely that this will ever happen (see #7 again), the idea that it could is very nice to think about.
23. While it would be much more practical to learn Spanish, I really want to re-learn to speak French.
24. I never had braces but I was always jealous of the people who did. I thought they looked cool.
25. I like to think that we (people) reincarnate until we get it right.

And one more:

This picture gives me nightmares.
