My 1st sip of a carbonated beverage, literally takes my breath away & thus, it makes my eyes water! Therefore whenever I know that I'll be'ving any around strangers, I choose to sit where I am not facing anyone because I don't desire to cause someone, to believe that I'm crying & then proceed to react sympathetically, to the situation!

    If I go outside on a sunny day, I always sneeze 3 or 4 times then I'm ok. A doctor told me once that I'm photosensitive....whatever

    You... I don’t know if we can be friends anymore.

    While I don't do this, ironically I recently thought that it was gross that I didn't have to paint my toenails as often as my fingernails because I obviously don't wash my feet, as often as I wash my hands!

    Too bad. You have no choice. You must keep me.

    Sigh... alas, you are correct.

    nothing, really....

    pretty average and boring

    (it's okay, compared to drama, I'll take boring every time.)

    I don’t even know you and boring isn’t the word I would use to describe you.


    I think that's a compliment.

    thank you?

    I can do those 3D eye puzzle things almost immediately by looking at them.

    off topic, but i really like your writing

    when i was a kid i had this good friend who was a bad asthmatic and when he was interested in something or happy about it he would talk in these halting sentences with random intonation and gasping for breath along the way but smiling really big. whenever you post i see his face and read your words in his voice and the punctuation is where he would gasp for air

    Thank you immensely for mentioning this, <3 unfortunately most dislike me due to it! However I don't talk, like this though but it began because I dislike ending, my thought/sentence & excessively using commas except when listing within a sentence, therefore I'd use semicolons to replace them {although I am eliminating my semicolon usage, for Lent}! Plus I also sometimes've trouble breathing, when I'm either abnormally active and/or during freezing weather {my cheeks, become extremely cold & I feel as though I am breathing dry ice, instead of air! So I've to cover them/my mouth, with my hands & blow hot air, to warm them again} & I always reread what I type prior to posting, so it makes it easy for me to read whether I'm short of breath or not!

    I now recognize that I started doing this during Winter, while I was upon the dating sites! That's also when I began to shorten my words, by combining them because many had character limits but I had a lot to say!

    I can remember the lyrics to any song after listening to it once. Completely useless outside of making it super convenient when I find songs or artists I really enjoy, lol.

    Same ...mainly because I stopped drinking carbonated drinks about 15 years ago, but when I have the occasional mixed drink it burns like acid

    I will usually eat 4 or 5 bowls of oatmeal everyday. And I have ate oatmeal everyday without exception since 2013.

    Also your toe nails don’t touch as many surfaces so they don’t chip as easily.

    Very true!

    your feet?

    Yes. I know it’s weird but we take our shoes off and walk around in other peoples homes. Our socks get dirty and we put them back in our shoes. Socks are not that thick so my feet probably get dirty. So I come home and wash my hands and feet then put on new socks because I have to always have socks on.

    YES!!! I have a thing about floor dirt, especially other peoples...I have a stash of socks in my car and bag...if no one is watching I'll change my socks before putting my shoes back on, or in my car at least.

    This might be over the top, but I get a satisfaction with washing all the floors at my place and not having any "outside dirt" (or people) walk on my clean floor.

    I also like white socks so I can see how dirty a floor is.

    I sometimes get the hiccups brushing my teeth
    And sometimes when I'm sleeping. Otherwise rarely do I get them during typical behaviors.

    - my eyes don't match each other and it drives me crazy
    - I second guess which is my right and left hand
    - I can sometimes concentrate better if I read stuff upside down (not me upside down!)
    - I get irrationally happy when I see numbers that I can identify with my favourite number (e.g. Feb 13 --> feb is "2" and 13 x 2 = 26 (fav number)
