When I am tired I am prone to tears/tantrums. I'd rather not be like this! It is worse when I'm with someone who I trust/feel that I don't like I have to impress them - I cease to make an effort to dampen down my inner toddler and let it all out at them. I'm hoping to change this. Also, if I'm tired and hungry I want food NOW which often leads to bad food choices

What are you like when you are tired? Do you get over emotional and prone to tears/anger like a small child? Do you have some other response to being tired, apart from finding some way of resting?
It varies a very great deal. Sometimes I get "toddler-tired" and get snappy, weepy and want to throw a tantrum. More often I just start passing out or becoming entirely incoherent
Do you think that people who like sun are cheerful people and that people who like other weather (cloudy, rainy, snowy, whatever) are miserable people? How would you respond to someone who posited this view?
No, and I think it's a bit silly. It's like saying all goths are miserable, just a nonsensical sweeping generalisation made on a single piece of information
Do you jazz up convenience foods by adding fresh herbs, garlic, spices or other stuff to it? Please give examples.All the time! Cream of tomato soup - I often add basil, chilli, garlic, onions, cream cheese, oregano... depends on my mood. Also, quorn sausages and burgers can get dull, so I often

Quorn things can be very dull - I usually serve them with something interesting. I've never thought of marinading them, that's a good idea! I shall try that.
Hey, you have gone all chatty! This is good, I hope.
I have different ways of being tired depending on what's going on. If I'm tired and there are people and I have to keep going I become compulsively cheerful (possibly irritatingly so). If I'm just tired on my own I get all floppy and useless and tearful.
Given only somebody's favourite weather, I don't think I assume anything about them until I've talked to them a bit more.
I add salt sometimes if I am a bit dizzy.
I have foot callouses from wandering around barefoot/in lizard shoes but I think nobody dares tell me to get rid of them because they know I would just laugh at them. Mind you, I haven't interacted with anybody who could be described as a beauty therapist for some years.
Yes, I have gone a bit chatty. I'm finding ways to write on my LJ without going into the emotional stuff too much (something I don't want to do so freely any more).
Sometimes people get accosted by beauty people in shopping centres. These people grab your hand and start rubbing the dead skin off - I've seen people complain about it quite a bit online. (I think it's just in America though.) Having said that, they're more sales people than beauty therapists.
When I get tired I get sloppy and lose my filters. It's all right as long as I only talk to people I'm very close to - I'm not safe in public groups (I'm thinking of the petsite chatboxes I hang out in) in that state, I'll be unnecessarily cruel to anyone that says something a bit stupid or annoying.
I think people that like sun have a higher tolerance for light and heat than I do. I'd disgree with anyone who posited that view; if I happened to be tired at the time I might be rude to them about it.
These days I rarely eat convenience foods, but I absolutely jazz them up when I do eat them. Who'd want to eat ramen noodles without a bit of ginger and garlic if they didn't have to?
Not really. I tend to have one on my thumb from cigarette lighters, but it's painful more than convenient.
Things are not great with me in general, but today feels like a good day so far.
I get all hot and cold flushes and can feel all collapsy and need to sit down or I feel I'll fall over. Sometimes I get all impatient and snappy at people too.

I don't, and I think it's a oversimplified generalisation, that can't be accurate.

Not really. doseybat likes to add coriander to mild curry flavour Supernoodles quite a bit I've noticed.

I'm sorry things are exhausting, that sucks.
