25 Things You May Not Know About Me

1. I am a very impatient person. I try not to be, but sometimes it feels like I might literally explode if I don't release the pressure when I try to contain myself.
2. The older I get, the crabbier I become. By the time I'm 80, I'm gonna be a bitch on wheels.
3. I'm mildly claustrophobic.
4. I hate crowds. A crowd is more than 5 people in the same room.
5. Music can change my mood in less than 2 minutes.
6. The closet door in my bedroom must be closed or I can't sleep.
7. I love food but I hate food.
8. I believe in reincarnation.
9. I am perfectly happy with my own company.
10. I can't stand it when someone leaves a television on and leaves the room. Turn it off if you're not gonna watch it!
11. I am not a party person. I'd rather have peace and quiet than go to the best party anyone ever threw.
12. I'm usually reading at least 3 different books at the same time.
13. I can become so engrossed in genealogical research that I completely lose track of time.
14. I wish I could play the piano. Or a guitar. Or any musical instrument for that matter.
15. I hug trees.
16. I can watch a human being being tortured and killed in a movie, but if an animal gets hurt I will cry and refuse to watch the movie any further.
17. I wanted to be a Marine Biologist when I started high school.
18. More than a couple of bites of most cooked fruits or vegetables will make me gag.
19. The first time I got my ears pierced (the old fashioned way, with a needle) I fainted.
20. More than 3 days without sunshine will turn me into a severely depressed human being.
21. I never go barefooted. Ever.
22. I obsessively wash my hands. And I hate to touch doorknobs.
23. I will frequently go out of my way to do exactly the opposite of what someone thinks I will do.
24. I enjoy experimenting with new recipes. It's the only time I like to cook.
25. When I ask someone what they're thinking and they tell me "Nothing" I cannot understand how that can be. My brain never shuts up. Can a person really not have any thoughts at a given moment in time?
