I'm learning to laugh as hard as I can listen
I was tagged.
I really really need to be working on my assignment that's due tonight, and yet, since I was tagged by two different people for this, I have a reason to procrastinate.
Each person tagged gives 7 random facts about themselves. Those tagged need to write in their blogs the 7 facts, as well as the rules of the game. You need to tag 7 others and list their names on your blog. You have to leave those you plan on tagging a note in their comments so they know that they have been tagged and to read your blog.
...except I'm not gonna tag anyone else. Feel free to do it if you'd like though.
Random facts:
1) One of my favourite things to do is go grocery shopping in the middle of the night (note: this requires access to a 24-hour grocery store). I associate it with random trips to get fun and/or necessary things with at least one other person who's up at least as late as you are.
2) Last night I got home from NYC, called friends, and sat on my porch. I was surrounded by a bright moon that was partially covered by whimsical clouds, a ton of stars, and dozens of fireflies. This is where I belong. This place is me (note: I have many other places in the world that are also me; this is but one).
3) A bunch of people may already know this one about me, but when I was young I didn't start speaking for a really long time. My parents and others started getting worried that I actually wouldn't ever speak and started preparing for that. Then I started speaking in fully formed thoughts. None of the baby babbling, one-word fake comprehension bullshit. I wanted to take in the world, think things through, and say what I meant. I spent a lot of time as a child just staring at things. I still do that, though I think I'm a little more reserved about it now.
4) I'm in a better emotional/mental state overall than I have been in a really long time. And yet I still hurt, deep down, a lot. I hurt because of what I know is there, and I hurt because of what I know is not. It's hard for me, and I can't quite seem to make a decision on what to do about it.
5) I still don't have a job for the summer. And there is no excuse, even if I wanted to give one; I am overqualified and/or underenthusiastic.
6) I really love Times Square... at 4am when there are only stragglers left on the streets.
7) I've waited until now, a full five years later, to take my G1 exit test. It's booked for June 26th, and I have no idea if I will actually pass. I can drive well, I've never had any problems with it, but the governmnent's 'rules of the road' are long gone from my brain, so we'll see what happens. I've also had my M2 (motorcycle license) for almost five years now, and am sad that it's going to expire in December.
