I always eat sushi with chopsticks. I always leave a tip. I sometimes floss my teeth with my hair. I don't put up with difficult personalities (family or "friends"). I always wash my hands after I use the bathroom. I don't like shaking hands, especially after I've just washed my hands. I rarely talk on the phone or answer the phone and if you called and didn't leave a message, I'll assume you dialed me by accident. I would rather slam my hand in my car door, than give up my laptop and wireless internet service. I love olives so much (green and black), that I would probably prostitute myself for a lifetime supply of them. I never give up where self improvement issues are concerned, I give up very easily where difficult relationship issues are concerned (I already wrote that didn't I?). I hate when people drive slow in the left/passing lane. Ideally, I think the man should be the head of the household, as long as he takes on all the responsibilities that go along with that (I don't want or need that kind of pressure). I smoked ganja before but it made me paranoid and aggressive, so I quit. The boyfriend that I used to smoke with, later got hooked on crack cocaine (see what might have happened if I didn't quit when I did?) The first record I ever bought was The Main Event by Barbara Streisand (it was a "45"...30, 40 & 50-Something year old peeps? Remember those?). I think that Nina Simone was a goddess and that Prince is an alien (when is he gonna start looking old?) I think I should've been on the old TV show Fame and married to Leroy (until the episode where he "came out of the closet"). I played with Barbies until I was about 14 years old. My sister and I hot-glued pubic hair and nipples on all of our Barbies. We also used to buy the cheap, hollow "Barbie" dolls, cut slits in the pubic area and put those tiny craft-store babies in them, so when you held them up to the light, they looked realistically pregnant (that's what happens when you play with Barbies until you're 14-but we did that when we were about 10). I'm still great friends with the guy I lost my virginity to. I don't and can't love anyone more than my sister and mother. So, whoever I end up with better understand that and love them too. I think that advanced degrees absolutely, positively DO NOT denote intelligence (I know quite a few idiots with doctorates). I have heterosexual girl-crushes on Tyra Banks, BeyoncĂ©, Grace Jones and Judge Judy. I have to fall asleep with the TV on. I like Country music more than Jazz music. I'm afraid my ideal marriage might involve my husband living in another state. People (individuals) never make me nervous or intimidated, only (possibly bad) situations make me that way. I can't snap my fingers on my left hand. I try to avoid boring people (zzzzz) and men that don't buy drinks at the club (and won't go away), like The Plague. I have an extreme phobia of oversized things (standing close to large statues or posters with huge faces on them). That oversized phobia of mine, does not include male organs. I don't swim in public pools anymore because I'm afraid of getting a staph infection or urine in my hair, eyes & mouth. I can't whistle. I think that ear wax is there for a reason but I don't like the taste (so if we're dating and you like "ear play", you'd better clean your ears). I have a weakness for tall men. I don't eat refined sugar anymore. I don't drink beer. Chewing gum makes me burp. I like my fried rice cold and my wine room temperature. I have a problem swallowing pills. I grind my teeth when I sleep (or so I've been told). I would never get a tattoo (I think). My shoe size is a solid 11 and my pant size is 10-12 (yeah, my feet are bigger than my butt). I have a very high tolerance for pain and a low tolerance for bullshit. Needles and shots don't scare me in the least, unless they're filled with heroin or HIV. I guess the point of this exercise is for me to see my issues/problems/phobias here in "black and white", whether good or bad. It's a very cleansing and enlightening experience. Try it! I don't think I've ever admitted some of this stuff before but I'm happy to share them with you. If you remotely cared, it might help you gain some insight into my colorful and eccentric (okay...weird) personality. What other excuse could there be for me?
