25 Things About Me
If you’re on Facebook you’ve likely seen this meme being passed around. I don’t typically do these because I’m lazy, and people know WAY more than they should about me already. But, I had some time to kill between classes so I did.
I’m posting it here too because dammit I spent twenty freaking minutes writing out this list.
1- I once dropped out of an ethics class because a midget sat behind me.
2- I prefer my coffee cold no matter the weather.
3- I’m the most unorganized person I know.
4- I group my candy by colors before eating it.
5- It’s difficult for me to remember to wear underwear.
6- When the weather is cold one of my knuckle’s hurts. I blame Kyle Judd for stepping on it in fifth grade. I have not forgiven him.
7- I can hold a grudge like no other. See above.
8- The last time I cooked a full meal was 2003.
9- I still wear the same pair of Converse shoes I had in high school.
10- I feel completely inadequate 70% of the time.
11- I think it hurts to wake up.
12- The hotter the weather is the better. I thrive in sunshine.
13- I leave the ‘s’ off words that should have it, and tack it on to words that shouldn’t. This drives RLO crazy.
14- I want to have a child someday, but worry I’m far to selfish to be a mother.
15- I go crazy if my toenails aren’t painted.
16- Sometimes when I’m reading a really good book I skip the last chapter so the characters stay alive in my mind forever.
17- I hate white wine.
18- My mother is right about my life far more often than I like to admit.
19- I hate autism more than any disease.
20- The term Spinal Bifida makes me giggle.
21- I’m proof that CPR saves lives.
22- I check my email obsessively.
23- I’m attracted to men with brown hair and blue eyes because of my Frank Sinatra obsession.
24- I hate when men wear any sort of jewelry.
25- I once broke up with someone because they read Tom Clancy.
You just made me spit all over the office keyboard, and that was only the first one!!!
Re: #14 … I’m sure that if/when you ever decide to have a child, you’ll find that you have nothing to worry about with regards to selfishness.
Parenthood has a way of changing people; and most of the time for the better.
And I can say this as an almost 43 year-old man without any children. Sigh.
These lists are usually boring, but you made it entertaining, so thanks for that. I understand number 1, because I am afraid of giants, personally. Tall people freak me the hell out.
I actually hope you’re joking about #1 and really #20 also.
Wow. Hate and wine in the same sentence! Guess that explains why I’ll be taking on the white and you’ll be taking on the red in our contest. Cheers.
Waking up is painful. I also need to have my toenails painted bright red at all times.
I agree with you on the painted toes, the inadequacy, male jewelry, the sunshine, the waking up…
#5 should be #1. Other than that, I have nothing.
I never read memes. They suck.
However…this is brilliant.
So…does this mean I can’t fix you up with my autistic brother in law becasue he wears gold chains and thinks CPR is a ginat crock of shit?
I’m doing mine on my blog, too. Because…why not?? All of those people on Facebook clearly don’t have blogs.
While the other 24 are interesting #1 is the best and I can’t believe I didn’t know this about you. That may be the funniest thing you have ever written or said.and I have no doubt that it is true.
I group my candy by color as well, and have to eat the “extra” ones that don’t equal the other colors in number. Then I eat the rest so that all the colors remain the same in number.
Then I go see my shrink.
#4- I totally do this too!
To Cat- Same here. I have to eat them in rotation (starting with the bad colors (brown M&Ms) or worst flavors (Yellow Skittles) first) so that I end on my favorite.
Glad to hear I’m not the only Loon who does this!
Can you elaborate on number 21? I am really curious.
I also group my candy by colors before eating them.
Maybe you’ve been saved from a very dangerous situation. Congrats!
