Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
Ha, right. I don't want to tag anyone. I'd love to see people's answers, but I'm not going to force anyone. I'm only posting this here because I was tagged by someone on Facebook and kind of felt like I had to play, since they're mostly my coworkers. And once I'd gone to all that trouble to think up 25 (incredibly dull) facts I figured I should post it here, too, so as not to waste the work.
1) I think I'm quite dull, and that 25 items is far too many to keep people's interest. We'll see how many people will bother to read them all.
2) I'm bisexual and polyamorous. This leads some people to think that I'm exciting and adventurous, or other things which I am not.
3) I've been with Eor for going on sixteen happy years.
4) I have pretty much forgotten how to draw. (I have not forgotten how to draw a clock, yet, however. [That's one way they check for the advancement of Alzheimer's.])
5) My grandmother died of Alzheimer's and/or Dimentia and I expect to go the same way. My memory is horrible.
6) I'm very easily distractable, and even more so when I'm tired.
7) But when I get into something it can be nearly impossible for me to tear myself away from it.
8) I'm a perfectionist about work or projects, getting hung up on tiny details.
9) But my house is a mess because I have no idea how to organize and I don't notice clutter until it's taking over.
10) To say that I read a lot would be an understatement. I read blogs, fanfiction, sci-fi/fantasy, swashbuckling high-seas adventure, Jane Austen, history...
11) What I do NOT read is the news and the Asimov's Science Fiction Magazine which I have a subscription to. I let Eor read those and tell me how they are.
12) I can eat things which seem dangerous - like quite old meat - without a problem, but cow milk, anything made with wheat, many fruits, and some veggies and nuts seem to give me a variety of mild allergic reactions.
13) I often have insomnia, at which time I tend to fret about really stupid things. Or design houses in my head, or think about roads and traffic flow, or try to think of ways to sort out the social system... Sometimes my brain won't shut off.
14) Sleeping is an issue in itself. I often have sleep paralysis dreams (where you think that you're awake but can't move and people are walking around your house), especially when trying to nap.
15) Waking up is misery! I generally take some minutes before I'm able to move or stand without falling over. (Going to the bathroom in the middle of the night is always a staggering challenge. Har har.)
16) I love to travel anywhere, and see new things, but I have a hard time prying myself out of my home and am always happy to return to it.
17) I'll enjoy nearly any type of museum.
18) I will watch almost any type of band live, and dance to them, but am very picky about music I'll bother to listen to when alone. Usually I'd rather have silence.
19) I uncover my feet when I sleep, but cover up my head.
20) I'm a Sherlock Holmes fan, and am on two fan email lists, but haven't re-read the original stories in ages.
21) I'm appalled by the whole pregnancy thing - it squicks me out to a ridiculous degree - yet once offered to have a baby for someone else to raise. (And at the time I meant it!)
22) I swim poorly - possibly I never had to learn because I was always fat. And also my eyes are oversensitive and I can't open them under water. But the fact that I've always floated well may have saved my life when I was kicked off a quarry wall when I was a tweenie, because I bobbed up like a cork. :)
23) I'm a little scared of deep water, because my brain populates it with sharks and octupi. And I have to have my back turned to them because I can only float, not really swim.
24) I love kayaking (though as you might guess, I prefer it to be in shallower waters).
25) I'm not the perfect writer, but I won't even bother to read something if the person who wrote it can't be bothered to attempt spelling, grammer and punctuation, because I feel it's rude of them to lay the burden of trying to discern their intent on the reader.
