I was tagged for this in facebook and figured I might as well post it here, too, since I don't seem to post much of anything lately. I'm not tagging anyone, but feel free to participate if you like.
1) I refuse to tag 25 people, but I will tag a few.
2) I talk too fast. My brain works faster than my mouth.
3) I had an internship at the International Atomic Energy Agency. Be very afraid!
4) I often prefer books to people.
5) I like to bake my own bread.
6) I'm addicted to chocolate.
7) I'm addicted to diet coke.
8) I am a klutz but I have good balance. I'm always tripping or running into things, yet I rarely actually fall.
9) I have delusions of grandeur.
10) I'm never sure if I'm really actually half-way smart or if I'm just good at faking it.
11) I have a history of being a bad student in formal education-type settings.
12) I like to take pictures of food, particularly if it is something I've made.
13) I love libraries but I also like to own my own books.
14) I am a compulsive re-reader. This might explain #13.
15) Death!!
16) I am a snob.
17) When I was in elementary school, my dad took me on a side trip on the way to see my eye doctor. That side trip involved dropping off a dead body at a crematorium.
18) While I've learned that I can live without television, I seem to binge on it when I have the opportunity to watch it.
19) I would have trouble living without the internet.
20) I like open spaces.
21) I hate heat and humidity. It is oppressive.
22) I am always thinking of ways to revise things, especially things I've cooked or baked. When I do this out loud, people think I am criticizing in a negative way, but really I'm just thinking about possibilities.
23) I am scatter-brained.
24) Because of #23, I make connections that aren't always immediately apparent to other people. While I've had to learn how to explain things to other people, I kinda like that I do this.
25) I make fantastic cookies!
