tagged!

i'm home sick today, with a vicious headache and stomach issues (maybe i ate a bad tomato?), so i have some time to actually fill this out. i was tagged by Samantha, who's blog i don't read nearly as often as she posts. i've been really lax about keeping up with my blog reading. so today i'll catch up.

The first part is to tell you 3 things about myself. Three things you wouldn't know...

1. i obsess about my fatty body. if i see a girl who is thinner than me, i absolute hate her. i'll actually scowl at her in public. it's gotten that bad.

2. i really dislike being a woman sometimes. most of the girls i see spend all of their time trying to look pretty or say the right things. they try to blend in more than stand out. it really makes me sick. there is so much wasted talent in the world because these girls mothers' teach them that pleasing people is more important than making yourself happy. and that what other people think of you in the most important thing in the world. GAH!

3. i carry my pocket digital camera everywhere i go. i'll take pictures of anything, mostly nature or architecture, at any moment. i walk around downtown chicago at lunchtime, looking like a damn tourist, but i feel i see a lot more than someone else might by looking through the lens of my camera.

Part two: List 6 quirks of mine…rules are as follows:
1. Link to the person that tagged you
2. Mention these rules on your blog
3. List 6 unspectacular quirks of yours
4. Tag 6 bloggers by linking to them
5. Leave a Comment on each of the tagged blogger’s blogs letting them know they’ve been tagged.

1. i can't stand lint, hair, stains on anything. if there's a speck on my shirt that i can see in my peripheral vision, it has to be removed immediately. and when i see stray hairs on a stranger's shirt or jacket or bag, i'll go into Ninja mode and take it off without their ever knowing.

2. i cannot go #2 in a public bathroom if someone else in the bathroom with me. if there is a noise distraction, like the hand dryer or flushing toilets, then that helps.

3. i use yahoo's search engine 100000000x more than google. i guess it's just what i started using before google, those pretentious bastards, ever showed up on the scene. but i totally rock google's maps. nothing passes the time more quickly than swooping around chicago from my desk using 'street view.'

4. i read my past entries on my blog and i laugh out loud. i know you're supposed to be modest, but damn, i'm funny sometimes. i just read the one about how i found a roach at work and it was begging for my gingerbread latte. now THAT'S comedy.

5. i wonder what will kill me. will it be a long slow painful fight with cancer? will it be a CTA bus? will it be some punk on the street who in now way in hell is getting my purse? it boggles the mind, especially when i'm bored.

6. i want to be a doctor. i dream of being a med student and being completely scared and shitless. i also dream of saving someone's life, either by actually being there or figuring out what they have by being behind the microscope. maybe some day.

Go to medschool. By the time I actually get an appoinment with my doctor, you'll be out, and I'll have a good excuse to switch providers.
