caffeine_girl's recent entry comments re: Texas, one thought continued to occur to me:
Sounds like Texas would be great if it weren't hot all the time.
After recognizing this thought, I said to my thought, "But you like the heat, so...?"
This is true. I like it hot. I even had the furnace on today despite the warmer weather Toronto has been having. I'm only wearing 1 pair of pants today, but just a few days ago I had returned to my wintertime 2 pairs of pants - while inside the warmest room of a house with a digital temperature reading in the low 20s (Celsius).
I then realized that it's not the heat in Texas that's bugging me, it's the sun. I appreciate the sun and am scared of/in the dark, but I also hate the brightness, glare, headaches, sore eyes, flashes in the eyes, etc. etc. that comes along with the sun. Hmm, good thing I'm not in that
Pitch Black movie - hmm, yeah, that's perfect actually - living in the Pitch Black world/planet/I can't remember would be the worst environment for me. Super sunny most of the time but then ultra dark during the eclipse with weird, scary thingys (no, I'm not referring to Vin Diesel - hee hee) scuttling around. That would definitely drive me more insane.
So, there's one contradiction:
1) I like heat but don't like bright (I don't want to say I don't like the sun, because, well, just because - vitamin D and all that, I guess)
I was going to list more contradictions, but, well, I'm tired of typing (and baring my, hmm, soul?)
Tune in next [insert moment of time here - millennium, perhaps?] for more on the contradiction that is me!
