So I started writing my 25 random things the night before last. These things require lots of thought. Eventually that evening I grew weary and retired to the boudoir with a tumbler of single malt. I awoke 14 hours later to find Winnie had put a post bemoaning the sad and thoughtless state of her peers' 25 random things lists. So I thought I'd slap what I've got up here and try and hammer out the rest. Serious Warning: it's getting late already and I might not make it all the way through, so if one of your pet peeves is incomplete 25 random things lists, then this post is not for you. Here we go:
So this is what I put down the other night. Also, Playlist time!: 1.Lost in the Trees 2. Missy Elliot 3. The Submarines 4. Iglu and Hartley 5. The Field
1. I was conceived under my grandparents dining room table on my parent's wedding day. My mom told me this while we were dancing at my cousin's ring ceremony. I remember my mom being a little tipsy, but she denies it.
2. I was an 8 pound baby. I had a very large head and was delivered via forceps.
3. I was constantly naked as a child. There is a disturbing large amount of photographic evidence to confirm this fact.
4. When I was still in diapers, my mom was heading off for her first day of work. For some reason I thought I was going with her, and that this entailed wearing a hard hat and carrying a plunger and briefcase. Unfortunately, also confirmed by photograph.
5. I curve slightly to the left.
6. When comes to hardcore interpersonal confrontation, I start getting teary-eyed. For example when my friend's older brother bullied me, or when my boss treated my like a piece of shit, when I tried to confront them about it, I started welling up uncontrollably. Less so with my boss (held it in enough to keep him from noticing) but still enough to disturb me.
7. Stay-at-home dad is my ideal vocation.
8. More crying. I went to Disney world when I was a kid with my mom and sister. Previously my friend John had told me about peopled falling out of and dying in the space mountain ride. My sister wanted to go, but since I was such a gullible puss I was too afraid. So they went in, but there's a line inside the dome that I didn't know about. So when they didn't come out for 30 minutes. I assumed they were dead and started bawling. You know how the rest goes. RIP Mom, Sis.
9. I've worn glasses since the first grade.
10. Body parts I'm conscientious about: my deviated septum, my hair, and increasingly my belly.
Alright, that's enough for now. Maybe I'll do the rest later.
