i've been had

i mean, i've been tagged, by my dearest of all friends louise so of course i have to follow suit, cause i love sending this kind of information out into the world. actually my dad wonders sometimes what i do all the days on the internet. do you write into the void, he asked. i guess you can call it that... so on with it. i was given the choice to say seven or ten little known facts about myself. let's see how far i get...

1. i hate the sound of someone pouring a liquid, any liquid into a glass or cup. it makes me cringe. yes, i do go thirsty a lot.

2. i love pop music and always have musical genius boyfriends who ridicule me for this. except for one, he's a dentist.

3. i love the smell of cat paws.

4. i can be cross eyed and make a fish mouth.

5. if you scratch my back, i purr. my mom used to have to do it for hours and now i am forever spoiled.

6. i am very possessive. when my mom scratched my cousin's arm instead of my back, i wanted him to walk on hot coals. or make him cut off his heel as a proof for his utter devotion to me. no, he never calls me anymore.

7. i rock back and forth to music in the dark and dream of things that will never be. i have done this ever since i can remember and still do. it makes me feel just wonderful. only now i get dizzy after a while and my hair ends up in a big matted ball.

8. i cannot walk by any reflecting surface without looking into it.

9. i hate ugly things. i realize this is a subjective quality of things. but if you have a boil on your leg and you're dying to share it with me, contain yourself. it's not pretty.

10. i don't care about politics. i just care about love. which makes me a blithering fool without my foot in any sort of reality known to earthpeople. it's an air thing.

why does it happen that when i tell about myself, it feels like a confession? well, i gotta post this and will tag you people tomorrow. cause now i gotta go to bed. sweet dreams everyone...

you are hilarious, not to mention refreshing!
i used to have a sign on my door when i was living in a student house that said 'AIR SIGNS ONLY' typed onto it. for some reason, the only folks that called around were earth or fire. a dizzying disaster.

perhaps the next sign i tack up ought to say 'LOVE, NOT POLITICS'
but nobody visits me now, because i left earth so long ago, and im much better for it!

and thanks for making the list - even though it kept you up so late after all that hard work!
mirlo is so proud of you, indeed, he says that you and he have much in common - possessiveness, purring when scratched. i think i'd die if he quit his vigilant hold over me. a happier prisoner aint to be found.
oh, and i have never had a boil, but if i grow one, i shall be certain to bring it over for your approval, ha!

call it revenge for the dork stork;)

Oh yes the dreaminess of the air signs - I am one too and politics (and I say this with only an ounce of guilty feeling) means nothing to me. (ok now that I have said it the guilt has increased ever so slightly). I love the tags!! Especially the one about purring and the smell of cats paws. Delightful
