I am bored. Thus - stuff.
A Dozen Random Facts
01. After hearing "Such Great Heights", I inspected myself in the mirror. Turns out I do have a freckle in my eye. It's just over my right iris.
02. My purse contains a wallet I made out of teal duct tape, a sketchbook and mini gel pen, lipgloss, Xanax, hand sanitizer, and a plastic cockroach.
03. I love nightmare fuel. When I was little, I used to feed skiers to the yeti and carry around a figure of Chernabog in a perfume-sprayed handkerchief.
04. I talk to video games as I play them. Not just the characters, the games themselves too.
05. My tongue is freakishly long. I was regarded as something of a entertainer in elementary school for being able to touch my tongue to my nose with ease.
06. I'm addicted to music. If I'm not listening, I'm singing under my breath. At this point, it's an unconscious habit. When I write, I want to make it feel like my favorite songs sound.
07. If given the chance, I wouldn't actually tap any of the famous people I say I want to. I'd rather listen to music, chat online, play video games... I'd rather hang out and be friends with them.
08. I refold wrappers as if the contents were still inside before I throw them away.
09. When I was 10, I had a pet moth. I made her a home in a flower pot on our porch and taught her to land on my shirt when I came outside. Her name was Felicity.
10. I'm allergic to feathers and green grapes.
11. My name was almost Cassandra; I would've been called Cassy for short. My parents only settled on Alexandria when they were required to give a name for the birth certificate. My middle name, on the other hand, was always going to be Yvette. It's a combination of my grandmother's middle names: Yvonne and Annette. Incidentally, if I'd been a boy, I would've been Erik Anthony. That's now my little brother's name.
12. I'm enamored with learning and mental exercise. My friend Ali and I used to do math worksheets at sleepovers. That factoid embarrassed me at one point, but not anymore. I own my geek.
