Alright, if you're still here reading Nobody's Reading, then you probably know the background already. If not, than contact me or something and I'll give you the rundown. I'm a little lazy tonight so this is more unedited than normal.
Random things again:
1. The idea for Nobody’s Reading started when I was trying to impress some guy.
2. Watch the video Obstacle 1 by Interpol. You know the dance that girl is doing? I’ve taught myself the moves, up against the wall and everything.
3. As much as I hate to admit, but over the years I’ve become a bit neurotic. I don’t think it’s nearly as bad as it was a few years ago, but sometimes I do find myself becoming very anul about silly things like making sure I have constant precision on certain things.
4. Every time some says, “The taste of…,” I get a flashback to the kissing scene at the end of the movie in Talladega Nights. Last time it happened pop came shooting out my nose.
5. When Star Wars Episode One came out, I remember cracking a lot of jokes about the people who waited in line for days or woke up to see the midnight showing. Flash forward about two or three years to the premier of the first Harry Potter movie where your's truly bought her tickets a full three weeks before the opening day. I also stood in line a few hour before the movie actually started with a lighting bolt painted in my head just so I could be the third person in the theatre. I would have been the second, but these girls beat me in a foot race to the door.
6. A few years ago, I had the most amazing realization. It’s was 3 in the morning and I was playing internet checkers with someone in China. We were communicating through these pre-selected phrases that we could pick. Here I am in Federal Way, WA playing Checkers and killing it with somebody I’ll never meet in China thanks to the power of the internet! Isn’t that the coolest!
7. I like kicking people. That’s why I got back into Tae Kwon Do.
8. Every once in a while I feel like I’m the most boring person in the world. Then I remember that I once got ran over by a Doberman Pincher and realize that my definition of normal maybe a little off. Don’t get me started on the time I saw this guy with two tongues.
9. Someone once told me that my body was only good for farm work, birthing babies and killing people. Considering how much my nieces and one nephew love me, and my natural ability with weapons in Tae Kwon Do, I’m inclined to agree.
nobody's reading,
damn good post
