i'm quirky. deal with it.

i like writing, i really do. and more often than not, i entertain the notion that i'm not half-bad at it. however, like anyone else who has written anything in his or her life, i get writers' block, like now - four days into NaBloPoMo. half-on a whim, half-anticipation for my inevitable NaBloPoMo brain-fart, i shelled out the dollars for Maggie

Heh. I'd forgotten about the squeak, but I definitely remember it.

I miss you. I wish I could afford to fly you out here for a weekend. You should still come visit sometime.

I am pretty sure I have gotten slugged before. But I could be crazy!

[siren52684]

heh, the squeak is still alive and kicking.

i still want to visit. maybe when it's warmer. and definitely for your wedding. :)

I slam my face into my pillow
I shadow box when I'm nervous
I put food up to my nose when I take it out of the mocrowave to see how hot it is

[siren52684]

i had forgotten about the pillow-slamming.

and the microwave heat-test makes sense. it's WEIRD. but it makes sense. :)

I like to eat standing up.
I can place someone`s accent to the city.
I hate chairs and will always sit on the floor if I can.
I can wiggle my ears.

[siren52684]

you never wiggled your ears for me! i'm so upset!

and gimme your email address (as i'll assume your U of C one is expired or something). i have entirely too much to tell you, and an AMAZING aim conversaton to share. i about cried when it happened.

First, your list of things not to do sounds like most of what's actually in my lj, and the funny thing is, I get people saying "I like your story entries the best."

A friend of mine, in talking about her former fiance who is now transitioning to female, said, "Imagine the person you love more than anything else in the world--and then ADD BOOBS!!!" Your "fratboy with tits" comment reminded me of that. And also turned me on.

well, when you write, michael, you actually TELL A STORY. THAT IS INTERESTING. as opposed to a list of exceedingly boring things like: "i went to the store. i bought a skirt. it is a red skirt. then i ate a sandwich. my boyfriend also ate a sandwich."

when AREN'T you turned on, seriously?

[mathwhiz78]

In response to your question:

right after
sometimes when i'm asleep
when i'm eating
playing with the animals

umm, that might be about it, actually. but part of it is that you just turn me on. i mean, look at you!!

ATM Machine is one of the most annoying things evar. Unless the automted teller machine machine gives you a two for one deal on money you withdraw, then its the coolest thing evar.

[siren52684]

there's an ATM outside one of the dive-y-iest bars at U of I with a sign above it that says ATM Machine. i took a picture of it once because i think my brain died a little bit.

if i can find it, i'll re-post it.
