instabitch....the instantaneous transition from happy to pissed cuz i have no time or patience for stupid.

[Soft*Silver]

I have developed a real need for cheetos. I have always found this food to be Styrofoam covered in orange shavings until now and this truly humbles me about changes as we age...

I wont drink juice unless I know its literally freshly squeezed from the fruit right before it is handed to me

About the only times I am not dour is when I am with my animals or in my garden. I really am turning into the cranky old lady of the neighborhood...lol

My fashion sense has gone away. never strong to begin with, I have always been a wild card when it comes to dressing, but nowadays, I dress solely for comfort.

The older I get, the more Me I become. No longer layered in rising to expectation of others and the culture, i am surprising myself with having the courage and audacity of a post menopausal crone

[Sparkle]

I have runaway veins.

I read magazines back to front.

I have no nap ability.

I lost my big toenail after a large section of the set of Jesus Christ Superstar fell on my foot.

I've never been able to do a cart wheel. This has always bothered me.

[SoNotHer]

Of course I am sorry for the loss of your toenail, Sparkle, I lost a full set of toenails once borrowing smaller-sized shoes for a 10-mile run. But I am suppressing a laugh and of course want know part of the set, where you were standing, and what part you played...

Probably the same piece that taught me to always wear steel toes for an in and an out.....always. I was standing mid-stage, playing the part of a stagehand. Now I'm wondering just how many people that set has maimed over it's running time. Its an awkward one.

[AtLast]

OK, here goes....

I have extremely thick toe nails. Keeping them trimmed and "sanded" is so important as I have had more than one lover jump out of bed due to my running a foot along her leg and it did not feel good! I use bone cutters to trim my toenails... and sometimes my fingernails!

I love vacuum cleaners. I will stop and go into a store to just look at what's new in suction. Preferred brand is Sabo, but the Dyson pet hair vacuum looks damn good!

I always touch up iron clothes before wearing them, especially formal ware. I sometimes even iron my jeans and shirts just back from the dry cleaners. might be due to having a 1940's closet- so small, the clothes get messed up just hanging in it! But, I don't even get the jeans things sometimes.

I hum.

1. People who habitually use a lot of exclamation points in a row make me feel nervous, even through a computer screen. I feel like if I were close to them at that very moment they might be yelling or flailing their arms around.

2. I have a phobia about getting a paper cut in my eye and my friends like to irritate me by making paper airplanes while we're sitting in restaurants.

3. I'm not out at my job because one of the judges is notoriously biased against homosexuals and I don't want it to affect my clients. I resent feeling trapped in the closet by a puritanical old asshole so I always wear very high heels on days when I'm assigned to his courtroom because he's also quite short and towering over him makes me feel authoritative.

4. Sometimes I throw up on airplanes. It always happens when we're taking off so I can't do it in the privacy of the bathroom. The first time it happened I was fifteen and flying to Florida with friends and I didn't know what to do so I vomited down the front of my shirt. It's been almost twenty years since that first incident and a 24 hour fast and Dramamine before flying do wonders.

5. I get regular manicures, which is mostly a waste, because when I'm not working I tend to dress like a twelve year old boy. A twelve year old boy on his way to the skate park with a french manicure and a chignon.

1. I keep my vibrators in the bathroom: sometimes if i have a house full of
company, I will excuse myself to the bath rm and buzz just cuz I'm bored
not necessarily horny

2. If I am cooking, and accidentally flip a burger or dog or whatever to the
floor, I will serve it to somebody else


3. Once in a dark crowded restaurant I slid my hand up the waitress skirt. I
don't know why.

4. I sometimes tool about town in a tee shirt that says, DYKE

5. Once I got into a fight with my butch bf and snuck out at night when hy
was sleeping and punctured the tire on hys jeep with a kitchen knife

Yes. I prefer a single flamboyant punctuation over the alternative.

Oddly, this is kinda hot.

Not so oddly, this is also hot.

[tonaderspeisung]

i have a co worker who looks like a blonde steve perry and sometimes when i see him i sing "oh sherry"

i often awkwardly serenade the people in my life

i am extremely uncomfortable around umbrellas

i once bought a car because it had really cool roadrunner decals - it ended up being quite the lemon

i'm an early bird and a night owl so i'm wise and have worms

[genghisfawn]

1) I am not afraid to burst into song, no matter who I'm with. This makes my mother very nervous and my bestest friends chime in. Fortunately for you I can carry a tune. Unfortunately for you I like to mangle the words of songs intentionally.

2) For example... if my room is perfectly clean and spotless and for some reason there is a sock in the middle of the floor, I will not pick it up. I don't know what perversity there is in my nature which makes this happen, but it's true. I won't pick it up. If you do, I probably won't notice.

3) My books are not shelved in any particular order. Some of my books are not shelved because I have no shelf space. I display even the books most people don't want to admit they've read because I don't go for that hipster crap.

4) Sometimes I find a cisdude hot. Justin Timberlake can bring sexy back to me anytime, and Tom Selleck is still a total hottie. I consider this being human, and nothing to do with sexuality or identification.

5) I still love my teddy bears and apologise when they have to sleep on the floor. Better yet, I don't make them sleep on the floor. I read The Velveteen Rabbit too many times as a tenderhearted little girl.

1. I spray lysol on all door knobs inside and out of my home once a week, along with wiping down remote controls, cell phones, counters, any kind of knob (kitchen door knob) or handle (fridge handle) with antibacterial wipes. I also spray my keys with lysol. I even spray my steering wheel in my truck with lysol. lol

2. I will not scrape my teeth on metal. I use my lips instead to slide food off a fork or spoon.

3. I cannot eat fuzzy fruit without peeling it. Examples; Apricots, Peaches, Kiwi.

4. I can't stand lazy people

5. I sit in public places facing the people and doors. I need to know what's coming.

♦ I'm a chronic nailbiter, it's worse when Stressed. My family has tried thousands of ways to deter it, from peppers to money{my uncle offered $150 when i visited Connecticut only if my nails were naturally longer than his when i boarded the plane, given that I was visiting my father to Try and build bridges, I failed the offer..-shrug-}.

♦ If you're eating, and talking, don't expect me to follow the conversation. I need to read lips, watching someone slosh food with every word, isn't appealing, and if it's a Date? You're very lucky if I'm still sitting with u..

◘ If I'm in a rush, I'll take 5 minutes to bathe...if I'm stressed, I'll take 30 minutes, probably 2 more showers later on...Nothing to do with cleanliness, it takes me 5 minutes to get fully cleaned up...The rest is relaxing mode, sort of a comfort from water.

◘ Because I'm Profoundly Deaf, if I really don't want to 'hear' anything at the moment, say an argument, a tantrum, anything...I'll shut them off, take 'em off...It's blissful "silence"...U could bring hell on earth to rain fire on my ass, if i don't want to I won't wear 'em. If you're Deaf, I'll close my eyes -cheeky smile-

♣ Did I mention I'm a very stubborn Redhead?
