About Me
A Compendium of Random Facts
- I hate when someone has more than 10 items in the "10 Items or Less" line.
- If you are in front of me in the express line, I will count your items.
- I get carsick but not seasick.
- I think Jello is disgusting. As is any other food item that "jiggles."
- I can cross my eyes independently of one and other.
- I am very competitive and therefore try to avoid competition. It stresses me out.
- I love to read. I can read upside down and in reverse.
- I won a state drawing contest when I was 9. (You can find some of my artwork here)
- I can be a hypochondriac. I try to avoid reading news articles about how things in your home could be slowly killing you.
- I still don't know what I want to be when I grow up.
- I have very dexterous toes.
- When they built an Amazon.com warehouse around the corner from my high school in 1998, I was offered a job with stock options; I turned it down because I thought online bookstores were “a dumb idea.”
- I am a terrible predictor of trends. See above.
- I have never broken a bone. Okay, maybe a toe once.
- I hate mayonnaise. Like, a lot.
- It drives me insane when people make up words or misquote idioms. e.g. "irregardless" "I could care less" "for all intensive purposes."
- I'm a big dork. See above.
- At 5'8" I’m just tall enough that it’s difficult to find pants that are long enough but not tall enough for someone to ask “wow, how tall are you?” I am averagely tall.
- I'm a redhead. If you kick me, I kick back.
- I am fluent in sarcasm. If you are not, we will have a hard time communicating. Also, you are a terrible human being.
- If you don't have a sense of humor, we probably won't get along. Also, you are a boring human being.
- I suffer from Resting Bitch Face. It's just my face, it's not that I'm mad or don't like you.
- I don't like you.
- Just kidding. Maybe.
- My strengths: Reaching items on the top shelf, replacing the toilet paper roll when empty, and finding items after someone has "looked everywhere."
