This week's edition of 10 facts about me

1- I have almost no sense of fiscal responsibility
2- I almost never pray but when I do at Friday night services i kind of like the singing but still don't like the silent part and don't like to do it for very long and when I show up at the end of services, I don't mind having missed anything. When I was younger and my parents told me to pray, I would often go to a room and read or daydream until I figured enough time had passed and then I would emerge, having "finished praying".
3-I hate movies like "meet the parents"- I just don't think it is funny to watch someone be humiliated.
4- I am more competitive than I would like to admit. Sometimes I wonder if I really want good things for other people.
5- I am a compulsive inviter- generally if I tell someone about my plans or think they have nothing to do i'll invite them to join me. I am trying to control my impulses but it's hard. I think I often think about the person I am inviting but dont' think about the person I have made the plans with previously. Usually it works out but still...
6- I get this feeling in the pit of my stomach when I see people kiss on tv. Hetero, Homo- it used to happen and then it stopped but this week I noticed a recurrence. I guess it is a yearning to connect with someone in a physical way. I suppose I could always get together with Pacey but I'm not that attracted to him and it's not that good. It is basically just an oppurtunity to hone my skills.
7- I think my parents know I wear parents but I dont' wear pants in front of them. I will even put on a skirt in my car if I am coming to their house from school and I didn't wear a skirt that day(I basically only wear a skirt on shabbat and when i am going to see my family). It feels pretty ridiculous.
8-I have a tendency to run late- but i'm trying to work on that.
9-A few years ago I went to an acupuncturist for a while. I even took all the disgusting chinese herbs. And then I applied to grad school for oriental medicine. All part of my attempt to figure myself out and what I should be doing. I have tried lots of things (not drugs though- good to know something has been neglected). I missed an appointment about six months after I started and I just never went back. I dont think it ever did much for me.
10- I painted one of my bedroom walls Benjamin Moore's Million Dollar Red. (thanks sarah for helping me choose the color- or more correctly, choosing it for me) You can tell I painted it myself thanks to all the red splotchs on my ceiling and neighboring walls.
