I was tagged, and not even in that fun sweaty twisted limb-cooing-whimper- giggle squeal way by Crissy to do this... so here goes (prepare for bizarre neurosis & idosynchratic pattern):
1. I like to keep my pennies seprate from the rest of my change. I have a lil' purple heart shaped plastic Powerpuff Girls change purse just for the pennies. I keep the quarters, dimes and nickles in my regular wallet. Don't know why, but I feel all "grr" when they intermingle. Coin segragation is rough... but someone has to be oppressed. Yes, cashiers do give me the "WTF?" face when I crack open the PPG sack of penny dewm... Maybe I'm too young to be that lil' old exact change lady... *for once I'm early for something!*
2A. Like Clementine in "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" I find the word nice a wholly inadequate descriptive for anything. I use it rarely, and find it like boiled white potatoes... blah, and meal-y paste-ish goo that serves as a functional & genial social spackle...
2B. For the love of all that is holy I hate the word "reckon". It has always given me the fits. It is much to my dismay that J.K. Rowling likes "reckon" A LOT... she must think "reckon" is NICE. Aarugh!
3. When I lend out books and upon return page corners are bent in substitution of using a bookmark. I save up and try to buy hardcovers. Page turn-y-ness of MY books makes me feel defiled and surly... Dramatic and bitch-y I guess, but *shrugs* irksome none the less.
4. I feng shui my magnet collection on the fridge which inevitably draws any/everyone to rearrange it.
5. Being called a "big girl" even after having lost 70 pounds in the past year- I am a tall woman, an amazon, diesal, etc but "big" is like "nice" not very specific and has undercurrants & eddies of discontent in my head...
6. Public contradiction or correction over menial/trival things. I let slide verbal/literal misteps when I grokk the message- We got where we needed to go. If it's not up for publication or open theoretical debate I'm not one to bust stones... Just being nice I reckon
There are so many, but I have completed my epic quest of rambling rant-y-ness!
