30 Things
This was originally the 25 random things meme that went around Facebook.
1. For the first time in my adult life, I think I have a job that I really like.
2. I’m a complete movie and television snob. I can’t stand most big Hollywood flicks. I think that if a TV show has a laugh track, it’s automatically going to be lame (with the exception of Seinfeld).
3 I’m completely obsessed with planes and plane crashes. I love the show “Air Crash Investigation.” I have nightmares about plane crashes. Yet I’m not afraid of flying and I still love all those plane crash documentaries.
4. I kiss my dog on the mouth… Even though I probably saw her licking her asshole 10 minutes earlier.
5. I wish that I had a British accent. I prefer British spelling and I would use it regularly if I could get away with it.
6. Completing the 545 miles of the AIDS Lifecycle is one of my proudest accomplishments.
7. I failed my first driving test the first time but passed my motorcycle license test on the first try. I would really like to get a pilot license.
8. There have been several instances on bike rides where I am certain that I am doing what I was meant to be doing.
9. I’m incredibly competitive but I try to hide it. Probably not well.
10. I really hate winter. If it was up to me, it would be 80 degrees every day. One of my most favorite things in the world is being able to go outside at night without a jacket.
11. I love classical music, including opera. I also love musicals. I also used to play the piano and the violin.
12. I’m a really fast reader and I consider myself to be very well read.
13. I weigh same weight on my drivers license. Not many women can say that. When I got my license at 17, I’m pretty sure I lied about the weight. This might be the first time in ages that the weight is actually correct.
14. I hate confrontation.
15. I think I have a superior palate to most. I don’t trust/believe certain people when they say they like a restaurant/food because I know they have shitty taste.
16. When I was a kid, purple was my absolute favorite color. Now, I can’t stand it.
17. I get really scared of the dark sometimes. Like, when I go camping. Or when I wake up from a bad dream.
18. I’ve always been an atheist, even as a child. I wasn’t raised with any religion so I never really knew what it was or what it meant. When I was old enough to understand that LOTS of people are religious and what it was all about, I thought the whole concept was really silly.
19. I still have both of my American Girl dolls (Molly and Felicity) and their clothes. I paid for Felicity myself and I will always remember that she was $88.00.
20. I can’t stand the smell of air fresheners, laundry detergent, most perfumes, most soaps, shampoos, candles etc. I really hate that fake smell that tries to make something smell like something else.
21. I’m scared to get old.
22. I’m always afraid that I’m going to fall down stairs, so I always take them really, really slowly.
23. If it’s yellow, I let it mellow.
24. I’m pretty good at figuring out how to fix things.
25. Once, I got a citation on the light rail for not having a ticket. I never paid the fine and then there was a bench warrant out for my arrest. That was the most expensive train ride I’ve ever taken.
26. I have an incredibly high pain tolerance. I have a hard time giving sympathy for those that complain about things that would probably be relatively minor to me.
27. I think My Chemical Romance is a really good band.
28. I didn’t really like peanut butter and jelly until I was an adult.
29. I like flat soda, room temperature drinks and soggy cereal.
30. Lots of people claim that they have to poop after talking to me.
