Ok, so I've been tagged. Things are a little funky for me right now but I'll try to tell you things that aren't too damn depressing.
1. I have an almost paralyzing fear of rejection. Because of this, at times, I've been considered aloof or stuck up. Not so, I'd just rather sit in the corner and not say anything than be rejected in some fashion.
2. Because I come from a family that's never been very close I tend to think of my friends as family. Which means that I take it especially hard to lose them.
3. Because of the above, I tend to be a bit of a loner.
4. I have a very energetic brain which means I always have to be doing something.
5. I am a perfectionist. Which appeals to #4. As some people have seen I am perfectly happy fiddling with things for hours to make them right in my mind.
6. I love my job and feel very lucky to be in a position to have a job that I love.
7. I am from the south and have very southern manners.
8. I am the most patient person I know.
9. This is one that may be common knowledge but I am suffering from a broken heart.
10. I can't stand it when people fart in public. This is one of my few pet peeves.
11. I love of movies to the point that I am pretty easily entertained.
12. Alluding to #11 I sometimes like romantic comdies. They sometimes make me go a big rubbery one.
13. I don't like my mother.
14. My dad is less mature than I am. But when I was a kid I thought he was a real, live super-hero. He was a firefighter most of his adult life and has been decortated many times for saving peoples lives. I used to see him in the news paper all the time.
15. I have a recording studio and am pretty constantly making new music but I'm afraid to let anyone hear it because of my dread fear of rejection.
16. I'd be a really great guitar player if I'd actually practice regularly.
17. I want to learn to play the cello and the piano.
18. I hate the holidays. But only because I don't have a family of my own to spoil.
19. I've made a pact with myself to be more social and bring more people into my life.
20. I have an extremely guilty conscience. I'd rather lock myself in a closet than hurt anyone's feelings. Along with this I go above and beyond to try and treat people the way I want to be treated. This may also be one of the saddest aspects of my life since I am, more often than not, disappointed.
So there it is, twenty things you may or may not know about me.
