Fifty random things about me? Christ, I don't think there ARE fifty things about me.
1. I don't wear gold jewelry. Ever. Under any circumstances. Only silver. The lone exception to this rule is a gift given to me byburningeden.
2. I loathe the Comic Sans font. LOATHE.
3. I have really, really dry skin that results in gross flaking.
4. I hate the way my legs look in shorts, but not in a skirt. Go figure.
5. I never wear pantyhose. Only thigh-highs. I am a woman, not a sausage.
6. I do not, as a habit, shave my legs. Warm in the winter, and in the summer, the horrified stares of strange men is enough to keep me amused for hours.
7. I like tattoos. I have one. I would like more. In fact, I would like a lot more, but the healing time is what discourages me. See #10 for why.
8. I hate the way I write smut. People who have just met me are saying, "She writes smut?", but I did. Moons ago. And it was cringe-worthy.
9. I'm a mouth-breather. I'm usually congested, so in order to breathe while I sleep, my mouth must be open.
10. I am a diabetic. My blood sugar is currently higher than it should be. This makes my doctor make The Face at me.
11. I am also an asthmatic. I take four inhalers a day. My asthma is more in control than my diabetes, which is good, because lack of oxygen will kill me much faster than ketone buildup.
12. I have too many credit cards.
13. I am unavoidably attracted to people who, for whatever reason, are unable to commit to me. This is one of my tragic flaws.
14. Purple is my favorite color, followed closely by red.
15. I drive a purple Honda Civic. I used to drive a red Honda Accord. The Red Demon. God, I loved that car, and literally drove it into the ground.
16. If I could have any car in the world, it would be a Honda.
17. I have vague fantasies about buying a motorcycle for myself, but it's too much damn work. But they are hot as hell.
18. I love fleece more than I love most of my family members.
19. If it were possible, I would exist solely on a diet of Diet Dr. Pepper, Fritos, and chocolate pudding.
20. I gained back all the weight I lost last year.
21. I'm not nearly as concerned about that as I should be.
22. My favorite food is anything served by Wendy's.
23. I am pro-choice. I am also in favor of the death penalty and feel that it should be used more often. In my case, it's not a case of an eye for an eye so much as it is the idea of supporting murderous scum for the rest of their natural lives offends me.
24. Cats are my totem animal. I love ferrets, but cats are MY animal.
25. My neighbors call me The Cat Whisperer.
26. When I was a child, my hair was red.
27. I sometimes wish I could buy bras that didn't advertise 'Comfort Strap!', 'For Fuller Shapes', and 'Total All-Day Support' on them, but then I realize that the size of my breasts (which, for the record, have been 38D since I was in my mid-teens) has formed part of my personality and I wouldn't want to change that for the world.
28. I have been in love with Gillian Anderson for so many years that I can't remember a time when I saw her and didn't sigh longingly.
29. I miss feeling about something the way I felt about Buffy the Vampire Slayer during the early years.
30. I am the world's worst housekeeper. No, really. I am. There are things growing in my fridge. It's bad.
31. In all actuality, I am just generically undomestic. I don't clean, cook, or worry about furniture or knicknacks. My oven has been broken since the last trip I made to California, whichragingpixie can tell you was a long time ago. Since I don't cook, this does not bother me unduly.
32. I was raised as an agnostic. My mother was a relatively devout Catholic until she met my father, who was a rather undevout Catholic, and his heathenish tendencies won out. When I was born, he refused to have me baptized, and when he found out that my mother had baptized me behind his back (with my aunt, in the kitchen sink), he promptly snatched me up and took me to holy men of every different stripe and had me baptized in as many different religions as possible, to ostensensibly 'wash off' the Catholic taint.
33. I have never read the Bible. Or the Torah. Or the Koran.
34. I am always cold. Even in the summer, I don't need A/C unless it's over a hundred degrees.
35. I have very poor eyesight and wear cute little wire rimmed glasses. I will eventually be legally blind.
36. Wishy-washiness in people irritates me. Have an opinion and stick to it, god damn it. It is your opinion, and even if everyone else is wrong, you are still entitled to it.
37. I wore glasses that were taped together in high school. Why yes, I was (*was*? HAH!) a giant dork. Thank you for asking.
38. I also had Very Large Hair. There are pictures. It is embarrassing.
39. I like most types of music, except for excessively poppy stuff, and violent, misogynistic rap. I am extremely fond of country music.
40. I have over a thousand romance novels in my spare bedroom. I collect books. Most I read again, but even the ones I don't read, I keep. I don't know why this is.
41. I also tape the shows I watch for posterity. Usually as I watch them. This means that I have almost the entire runs of X-Files, Highlander, Forever Knight, as well as the earlier seasons of BtVS and Angel. They are also in my spare bedroom. Along with bins of fannish stuff, like t-shirts, comics and books. See above comment re: being a giant dork.
42. I enjoy my own company. I am not someone who needs to be constantly in the company of others. This lead me to be labeled as antisocial as a child.
43.ragingpixie is married to my boyfriend.
44. I work too much. In a job that requires me to do too many things at once, which leads to me morphing into a screeching hag by the end of each day.
45. I use the word 'fuck' too much.
46. I have an accent. As I got older, I worked at hiding it until it's not that noticable until I say certain words. Like dog. Or talk. Or water. Unless I am extremely tired or extremely enraged, then it comes out so heavily that people that are not native to the area have a hard time understanding what I am saying.
47. People that feel the need to foist their own opinions and/or morals upon others offend me.
48. I like brown leather more than black, but I wear black more.
49. I don't mind doing laundry, but I hate to iron things.
50. I cannot believe that I thought of fifty things about me. I guess I'm a little less shallow than I thought.
