So bored.

The Rules: Each player of this game starts off with 10 weird things/habits/little known facts about themselves. People who get tagged need to write a blog of their own 10 weird habits/things/little known facts as well as state this rule clearly. At the end you need to choose 10 people to be tagged and list their names. No tagbacks.

1.  I sleep with a stuffed animal.  Her name is Penelope and she's a black lab.  Gabby got her for me for my birthday (or something) sophomore year.  I have slept with her since.  She went to London with me, and has been to camp for three summers in a row.  She is here in Seattle.  Part of it is emotional comfort, but part of it is physical - I can't stand sleeping without something in the crook of my arm.

2.  I have bones on the sides of my knees that stick out.  Not all people have these sticking out, apparently.  On my right one, there is a quadruple scar from the multiple times I've been shaving and have ripped my skin right off.  Lovely, eh?

3.  I change my accent to match the people I'm talking with.  It's not disrespectful - it's almost a respect thing.  I can't explain it, but it happens quickly and usually without me noticing.

4.  An ex-boyfriend told me that I have small teeth (before he was my ex).  Now I notice it constantly.  Really drives me crazy.  I wish he had never said it.

5.  When I first moved to Parkersburg, I made up this whole story about a guy who lived down the street in Richmond and how we had dated and how he missed me.  I never told anyone it was a lie.  I guess the power of recreating myself overwhelmed me.

6.  Driving back and forth from Shentel, I used to play Tristan Prettyman's CD and pause between each song to address the invisible crowd I was playing to - dedicating songs and the like.  I'm assuming she'd stop being my MySpace friend if she knew that.  :0)

7.  I waver between thinking I'm quite pretty and thinking I'm practically unnoticeable.  It's not a plea for compliments, honestly.

8.  I am honestly living a bisexual lifestyle, and do not feel any more attracted to men than I am to women.  It hurts my feelings when I hear people consider bisexuality just a stopover, indecision, or experimentation.

9.  I insist upon correct capitalization, punctuation, and spelling in Instant Messaging.  Although I am prone to use lol, brb, and btw.  Somehow, I deem these appropriate.

10.  I do not believe in the concept of a Messiah, nor do I believe that Jesus is my "savior."  This took me a lot of time to realize, and even more time to come to grips.  I still practice a mainly Christian-styled worship, mostly because I grew up in that tradition and I find a lot of comfort there, and because Jesus is my teacher and following his teaching and example has brought me to my current wonderful relationship with God.

And I tag... anyone.  Go to it.
