Day Two: Nine things about yourself.

[apple_pathways]

1. I like to talk about myself. (Hence this meme.)
   
2. I have had just about every hair color that could be considered "natural" (blonde, light brown, dark brown, nearly black, strawberry blonde, auburn, etc.) and several that are distinctly "unnatural" (purple, burgundy, fire engine red, green, etc.)
   
3. I used to have quite a few piercings--eyebrow, nose, and several cartilage piercings in my ear. Now I just have three holes in my earlobe. I want to pierce my nose again.
   
4. I listen to most music genres, including country. (I ♥ bluegrass!) I can't stand "pop country", however.
   
5. In my life, I've made out with 6 gay men. I don't know what to do with this fact. (Hold on! I forgot that "Chris the bisexual" is now "Chris the homosexual", so make that 7.)
   
6. I am not afraid of death, spiders, or public speaking. I am, however, creeped out by puppets and people in giant animal costumes. (You will NEVER find a picture of me hugging Mickey Mouse.)
   
7. I once considered dumping a guy because he wasn't a registered voter.
   
8. I was on the Quiz Bowl team in high school, and treasurer of the Creative Writing Club. I refused to join the National Honors Society.
   
9. I once ran a smoking cessation group for people with severe psychotic disorders.

I was on my high school's quiz bowl team too! Nerds, unite! I wish we'd had a Creative Writing Club, I totally would have joined that too, but my school was kind of ghetto and so there wasn't enough fellow writing geeks to have one.

7 gay men? ...I'm not sure what to make of that either, lol.

I'm not sure what to make of number 5, either, but it's got to be an important statistic.

Number 7 is totally a solid decision. Unless he was a voter who was secretly unregistered... but as a Chicagoan I'm required to be all for that sort of thing. (It'd still be grounds for dumping, though.) (-;

Ha, I won't hug people in giant animal costumes either. It doesn't really 'scare' me, but I join you in thinking they're creepy. I also don't like letting my son sit on Santa's lap--this may have something to do with my family not believing in Santa when we were growing up. In my mind, I'm just like 'why would you want to sit on a random stranger in a costume'? No offense to anyone who wants to do that, obviously it's very popular--I just didn't grow up with it :P

I <3 bluegrass too! Do you like O Brother Where Art Thou? One of my fave films and such a great soundtrack...

I would also consider dumping someone if he wasn't a registered voter!

Yay for unusual hair colours. :D
I miss my turqiouse hair so much, but I had to stop bleaching it after I could pull whole chunks of it out with my bare hands. /le sigh
Might attempt it again next year.
(I am never doing anything red or pink ever again though. The red particles of the colour were so strong, I had to rebleach my complete hair to get them out. /shudders)

Why the fear of people in animal costumes? °_°
