disclose 43 random THINGS about myself

I imagine conversations with other people in my head. I can usually predict what they will say and everything.

Then, should I ever have the conversation with said person, I can manipulate what I say to make them say what I want them to say.

Yeah, I know. I know.

I can’t form my tongue into a W. I can’t wiggle my ears. I can’t quirk one eyebrow.

I have no discernible skills.

Period.

Drinking milkshakes, cold coffee drinks, or smoothies makes me cough.

Today, as I left the city at 4:00 or so, I gave my still perfectly valid and useful all-day metro pass to the first stranger I met headed to the station.

They were very surprised and very thankful.

It made me feel really good. I smiled for a long time.

I hate what you say, but I’ll defend to the death your right to say it.

Autumn makes me feel jumpy and restless inside. Always, always, always.

I love autumn.

Sometimes I lie

because I know I can

and I like it.

I wear one blue contact so that my eyes can be different colours.

Yes, I know it rules.

Sometimes I stop whatever I am doing and realize I have been singing to myself in my head without realizing it.

It always surprises me.

And they’re usually stupid songs. Or nursery rhymes.

When I am sad, I eat Tums.

Tums rule.
