i guess i'm pretty different now, considering

[aftertherockets]

I was tagged, ummmm, days ago for this meme, but I am slow and therefore only just doing it.


1. I'm a freak about going to the movies. I have to sit in the middle of the theater. I seriously don't enjoy the movie as much if I'm sitting too close or too far away or off to the side. I hate being late to a movie, and would almost prefer not to go if I'm going to come in after the lights have dimmed. I also always have to stay until the last credit has rolled. Most of my friends are pretty forgiving about this, luckily.

2. I'm constantly constantly constantly singing or humming to myself. I feel bad for everyone around me, because I can just barely carry a tune. I can't help it, though, there's always some sort of song stuck in my head, and when that happens I just need to sing it.

3. I hate writing in blue ink. I am a black ink kind of girl. Blue just seems...unprofessional or something. It makes me twitch just a little that we only use blue ink pens in my office.

4. Pepperoni pizza is my favorite thing in the world, but most of the time I eat it by picking the pepperonis off one by one and eating those first.

5. I hate chocolate. I do. I don't like the taste of it. I've tried many, many, many times over the course of my life to force myself to like it so I wouldn't always be such a freak at birthday parties or when someone tries to do something nice for me and gives me a candy bar--but I just don't like chocolate. My mom says when I was really little she gave me a piece of white chocolate trying to trick me, and to see if I just didn't like the way chocolate looked, and I spit it right out and made a face about how it tasted like chocolate. All that being said, though, I love peppermint patties. Mmmmmm.

In other news, there is no heat in my office and it's currently snowing outside. I'm wearing a sweater and my coat and a scarf and my fingers and nose are due to fall clean off any minute now. BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

Supposedly, someone's going to come fix the heat soon, but I don't know why I'm not allowed to do like our tenant in the building next to us and just go home any time the heat isn't working. Yeesh.

Though, if I went home, I'd miss my very first office Christmas party tonight after work. And, truth be told, I am a little excited to see the people who work upstairs let their collective hair down a little. Especially the one I've affectionately dubbed ToolBoy. He could use some relaxation. :p

BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

OH, about your hating chocolate thing? My mother, who's a doctor, and who's been studying allergies for as long as I can remember, says that when you don't like the taste of something that has a high allergy potential [you know, chocolate, shrimp, peanuts, etc], that is your body telling you that you *shouldn't* be eating it in the first place, because you might be allergic. So there you go. :)

Daniel....you are completely on the floor...

Hmmmmm....I knew about all of those quirks....except for the blue ink thing..YOU BE CRAZYYYYYYYYYYYY

YES. Blue ink. I forgot about that when doing mine [it happens when you have too many quirky habits], but I'm a black ink girl myself. That shade of blue most "serious" pens use doesn't look good.

Fellow-Heather, are you my twin?

I too am a total freak when it comes to going to the movie theatre. If we can't get there within enough time to get a good seat in the middle and be able to see the trailers, I'd just as soon not go. In fact, there have been times where I've backed out for this very reason. SO nice to see that I'm not the only one.

Also, I too pick off the pepperoni. Except I save it for last, since I tend to save my favorite things for last (which is a bad idea given that as a result you just eat a whole lot more of what you don't like). I can't tell you how many times I get people saying "oh, can I have your pepperoni?" or "you know, they do have plain cheese."

HEATHER! I LOVE YOU! Well, I don't know that I sit exactly in the middle. Probably a little closer than middle, but I'm anal about it too. I like to be in the middle of the row that is four or five seats up. It's not quite the middle cause I like to be able to put my head back against the seat and be facing the middle of the screen. But, it's middle-ish!

I'm constantly constantly constantly singing or humming to myself.

Yes! Me too! It was really bad when I rowed because we'd be out there all alone on the water and the people in my boat would be all what the hell is that?.

Dude, DUDE! I so feel your weather pain! There's a lot of construction at the place I work which has resulted in outside air being pumped through the vents like air conditioning. I've literally been in my winter boots and long-johns all week. So, yeah, totally feel your pain. Even curling up in a duvet for hours afterwards does little to warm the bones.

Have fun with ToolBoy :)

I stay for the last credit at the movie too. I don't like when I go to movies with a new group of people and they all get up as soon as the credits start rolling, I feel uncomfortable cause I want to stay, but I leave anyway. When I'm with my usual friends we like to read all the differnt jobs and say which one we want to be. dorky yes, but fun.

I haven't had pepperoni pizza in a LOOONG time, but I used to always pick off the pepperonis first and eat them. Hee. Yummy!

... Chocolate is BRILLIANT. It's my addiction. I start to get the shakes if I go too long without it...

Actually, it is probably much better for you that you're not a choco-addict like me.

I hope they fix the heat in your office soon! Coldness sucks.

That chocolate thing is odd. Very odd.

Pepperoni pizza is also my favorite thing in the world. *loves*
