In honor of continuing a relative roll on a sucessful subject, I bring you 20 more things about WelnTaod but, were afraid to ask:
21) I attribute any talents I have in human services from being a wallflower in high school. In just observing people in such an intense environment teaches you more than in any Psych 101 course on Earth.
22) Long after I'm dead, I'll be remembered for my particular idioms. "Kooky" is fondly remembered by most but my true success is, "yep, yep..." It is an all-occaision affirmative!
23) I have brutal performance anxiety only when it comes to playing an instrument publicly. I could give speeches until blue in the face.
24) Because of the above statement, none of the women I've been dated have really witnessed me playing guitar... The fact that an occaisional strum appears, and is subsequently pointed out, only reinforces the behavior.
25) Because I once showed up to a family event in a black long-sleeved shirt, my entire extended family started buying me nothing but black clothing. To this day, I think that my aunt on Staten Island has more to do with my sullen wardrobe than my Sisters of Mercy record collection.
26) I rub noses with my girlfriend more than I kiss her.
27) The fact that I really like having my sheets/blankets tucked in has been a major contention point in relationships.
28) It breaks my heart that I can't have my book collection set-up in my apartment. Having helped run a bookstore for a number of years left me w/ 750+ books ranging from East Music esoterics to pop-up books on phobias.
29) I'm in dire need of writing poetry again on a regular basis... At one point, it was a serious enough practice that I'd considered leaving music school to study at Emerson. Enough pieces have been published in the past that I'd considered getting a book on the market. Yes, what market indeed.
30) A best friend of mine once gave me the advice that staying friends with ex's acts as almost a romantic resume. Since everyone you date will eventually end up as an ex, a potential newcomer may welcome the idea that this trail of women still think of you as a good catch. Due to this rationale, I'm still particularly close to every women I've ever really loved and they all think I'm still the bee's knees.
31) I once stabbed a pencil through my left hand in grade school... Since my twit teacher wouldn't excuse me to the nurse, I've a graphite scar to show for it.
32) I once had a stalker who would befriend those I worked with in order to gain info about me. I might have been genuinely flattered had she not penciled her eyebrows in.
33) My singing voice is much, much higher than my sister and other female family members. I think it'd be made fun more if they weren't jealous.
34) My favorite vacation of all time involved 2lbs of coffee, a carton of cigarettes, four books and my parents' sunny back deck.
35) I talk and laugh in my sleep when not snoring...snoring taking up 99.4% of the time.
36) A friend of mine and I once tried figuring out the exact ratio of dating time to how long it will take for you to get over them proper. I think it was something like 2.5:1. Date for 5 months, takes 2 to get over it. It turned out to be complete bullshit, of course. Sometimes, it's taken years to get over a 9 month relationship.
37) I used to make fun of fantasy fiction genres until, of course, I dated someone who nearly read nothing but. Since then I've read a number of "literary concessions" to keep her happy. She's yet to reciprocate.
38) Due to my many friends here owning cats, I go through their 'My Pics' furry sections and point out favorites to CthuluLu. Because she's seeing me looking at more pictures of cats here than boobs, she's labeled this phenomenon 'Cat Porn' and teases me about relentlessly. I really do miss having a cat, though.
39) I used to smoke more than two packs of cigarettes a day. Nowadays, I can't conceive of having that much free time, let alone the disposable income to allow it.
40) The favorite part of any job I've ever had is the sense of accomplishment. If I ever retire, I'd have to invest in a superhero costume in order to flit around, performing good.
21) I attribute any talents I have in human services from being a wallflower in high school. In just observing people in such an intense environment teaches you more than in any Psych 101 course on Earth.
