1. i hate the sound, smell, and feel of pencils. mechanical pencils are tolerable.
2. i am left handed (perhaps that is why i hate pencils (hand smudges).
3. i am sensitive to cinnamon. my mouth gets clicky-itchy and it bothers me in general.
4. half of my bookshelf is filled with books i have yet to read but fully intend to.
5. i have a soft spot for vertical horizon, matchbox 20, and goo goo dolls (favorite bands from back in the day).
6. i miss the circa 2006 local music scene.
7. i would never move out of minnesota for good. i love it too much here. i would move for 6 months here or there (seattle or maine or japan), but never forever. this place is just too great.
8. i have misophonia. big time. BIG TIME. which means decreased sound tolerance (specifically with people sounds). i literally cannot function or see straight when it acts up with certain things. i get so distracted and angry by them that i need to leave rooms. it is annoying.
9. my life is so, so good right now. i am on cloud 9. but it makes me nervous, because when things are so good, they often plummet soon after. eee! i will just hope for the best. new job and stuff on the horizon, though. this is super good news.
10. i am perfectly aware that sometimes i begin sentences in some posts with properly uppercase letters, and in other posts i use no uppercase at all. i am lazy. and i want to go back and make them all one or the other, but. no. please forgive.
