20 More Things About Me

Back in 2016, there was a popular “Things About Me” type of post going around for bloggers. I jumped on that because, hey, your girl basically has a PhD in Introspection.

Now it’s four years later, and it’s time for the sequel. So let’s dooooooooooooooo this!

1. I’m quasi-ambidexterous. I write with my left hand, type with my right hand, do makeup with both hands and use whatever hand is closest to the item I want to pick up to do so. This is my superpower.
2. I can’t parallel park. I’ve made it this far in life without that skill, so take that, driver’s license tests!
3. I’m an HSP. Just read this.
4. I’m a speed reader. This bothers the hell out of my father because I can read and answer the Jeopardy clues I know the answer to before he’s halfway through reading the clue, which makes me love it even more.
5. I’ve never seen The Notebook. And I never will. Romantic movies are not my thing.
6. I have a rare nervous system disorder. Don’t worry–I’m fine! I’ve been working on a blog post about it for a year, so maybe I’ll finally finish it in 2021.
7. I don’t cook. Other than scrambled eggs, I don’t cook anything. Domestic goddess I am not.
8. I never know what day it is. And this was even in the pre-COVID days! Google Calendar gets me where I need to be.
9. I have lip balm with me at all times. Purse, nightstand, kitchen–I’m never far from some pucker hydration. Glossier Balm Dotcom Original and Mango are my faves.
10. I have a horrible singing voice. I was part of an Italian singing and dancing group when I was 14, but even though I learned every song in Italian, they made me lip sync because my voice was so bad.
11. My nail beds are the size of a ten year old’s. No nail art for me!
12. I’m bad with numbers. If we’re out to eat together, you might want to figure out the tip.
13. I love taking silly quizzes. I’m looking at you, Buzzfeed.
14. I’m an ambivert. I need equal parts alone time and socialization to be my best self.
15. I like washing dishes. Weird, I know. But there’s something that I find relaxing about it, and I do thoroughly enjoy a productive task.
16. I have a very detailed plan for what I’d do if I won the lottery, but I rarely play. Go figure.
17. I learned how to ride a bike and stopped riding a bike within the same six months. Unusual for a child, but I never said I was normal.
18. If the wrong décor colors are next to each other, I get uncomfortable. I used to have an office I couldn’t work in because there were gray curtains too close to glass table that had copper legs.
19. I’m not competitive with others. With myself and my past accomplishments, yes, but not with other people.
20. Sometimes I write irrelevant blog posts when I’m out of content. Case in point.

And now you can continue your day knowing that if you ever had to take a quiz about me, you’d probably ace it.

Have a beautiful day 🙂
