First, a meme wherein I was tagged by
koshlass who apparently wants me to spread it around. Too late for that, Katie.
OH, she meant the meme.
List seven habits/quirks/facts about yourself.
Tag seven people to do the same.
Do not tag the person who tagged you or say that you tag "whoever wants to do it" OR ELSE YOU FAIL.
1. I have a scar on my forehead resulting from a head-first meeting with a concrete sidewalk when I was 10 or 11.
2. At the graduation ceremony from my Elementary School, I received some award from Arnold Schwarzenegger's organization encouraging physical fitness for "excelling" in physical education. I was a total chubbo back then (moreso than now), and it confused the Hell out of me. I still haven't figured out exactly why. Maybe they just wanted to encourage me to get in better shape? Who knows! But if that is the case, that's kind of dick of them. I mean, I know people in the crowd must've been saying "wait, why's the fat kid getting an award for physical fitness?" Because I sure would have. And it's not like encouraging that sort of rotund physique is going to motivate somebody to change. Who knows.
3. I didn't discover the awesomeness of Iron Maiden until the past year.
4. I'm really quite flexible (physically).
5. I sleep with a pillow covering my my face from the top of the bridge of my nose upwards (including my eyes). Partially to block out more light, but it's also a weird comfort thing. Maybe it's because of my big Irish Ted Kennedy head, and I have to sleep with my pillows in weird arrangements to support it like Rocky Dennis in "Mask."
6. I set my alarm clock to be 12 minutes fast. Call me an idiot, but it actually works.
7. I pretty much stay in my work clothes - slacks and button-down shirt (sometimes with a tie depending on the shirt) - until I go to bed.
Now who to tag? Hmmmm! I choose: Justin (
enfarcer), Molly
itrytobeamused, Jess (
leopard182), LeVanna (
lolavavoom), Maeve (
mourningdove), Alyssa (
nightangelca), and because he's the newest addition to the f-list on LiveJournal...Seamus (
giftchild SACK GOT SICK. Poor thing came down with something fierce last night and all day today, and as a result was bed-ridden for Valentine's Day. She texted me in a sick-induced haze to let me know that she no longer had chills, but she still wasn't feeling "100$". She corrected herself in the next text she sent (she meant "100%"), but I think I'm going to start using that. As in, "You know, I'm a little concerned, because I'm not quite feeling a hundred dollars myself right now" (which is true - I might be coming down with something).
Understandably, she was quite dismayed. Not because it was Valentine's Day - she hates the holiday - but that she didn't get to spend time with me period, because I'm so damn awesome. I was too, but it is just one day and I'm definitely going to make it up to her before I leave next week.
Oh, I should mention that. I'm going down to Virginia all next week (leaving Tuesday morning at about 4:00am) to see my mother get married. So I won't be online at all. I'll have the cell on, but I'm not sure what that means for roaming charges in that area. I'm sure I could look it up, and will eventually, but I'm feeling particularly lazy right now.
There was more I was going to write about here, but I feel the slight tinge of a headache coming on. I'm not entirely sure if I really am not feeling $100 because I'm coming down with something, or if it's because of a combination of the weather and not getting enough sleep last night. I guess we'll know tomorrow morning.
More later...
