That’s
the fancy-pants version. Here’s the real me. I am afraid of changing
lightbulbs. I HATE feet. I hate condiments. I check behind the shower curtain
of people's houses because I'm the kind of person who would hide there to scare
someone. When I was six I went to school with my coat and no shirt on and made
it all day without anyone finding out. When I was ten I didn't brush my hair
for four months.
My
favorite errand is going to the library. I will pull things out of the trash to
recycle them. I love to have conversations about all the things you’re not
supposed to talk about. I hate country music and jam bands. I have great aim
when throwing things especially at other people, but I can't play an upper body
sport to save my life. I get competitive about weird stuff like who can spit a watermelon
seed farthest. I love life but I get bitchy sometimes. Writing and skiing are
my sanity. I have a master’s degree in writing. I love going to school. I
graduated with almost 200 semester credit hours when 120 were required. I speak Swedish
and can lick my own elbow. I’m kinda weird.
