Random stomach thing has left me with no strength for anything but memes. I believe I was tagged for this by [profile] chaos_pockets

1. I'm fat. Zaftig. Whatever. I'm thick in the middle and tapered at the ends. It's actually surprisingly useful in the water.

2. I leave a snail trail of clutter. I don't know where it comes from. I'm getting much better at it, and I'm much better about it than anyone in my family. Mostly it used to be that I couldn't be arsed.

3. I'm intensely quiet in public situations, but when I speak up I don't have much reserve. I have a filter, but kind of a skewed sense of conversational appropriateness. Wow! Am I awkward!

4. I tend to think everyone is staring at me. Not because I'm special or deserve all your attention one hundred per cent of the time; because a stroke I had in college screwed up the nerves on the right side of my face, and so [I feel like] I'm either looking droopy and dour or everyone can see me trying to combat the charming twitch.

5. I will never chew the waitress out for the kitchen's problem. That is and is not a metaphor.

6. If I stare unfocussedly at you or retreat to the kitchen, odds are equal that I'm having a panic attack, writing in my head, struggling to understand the conversation, or just want to cook something.


Wow, I am a very unique little troll. No, I don't know how my wife puts up with me either.

. . . Was this before I knew you? Because if it was after, I am going to feel like the most unobservant (in the visual sense!) person on the planet.

It was before I lived on your hall.
