The 13 Days of April Answers

Time for Spring cleaning, in all sorts of ways. For the next 13 days, I will share some of my unknown and quirky habits. It's time to get these facts into the open. Living is much more fun, if you are open to the random tidbits that potentially make you bat-shit crazy.

------------------------------------

1.) April 16- I like to do the majority of my Facebook commenting and status-liking at night time. That way, my actions don't clutter up everyone's news-feeds when they're awake. Also, that way, most people won't see how much of a Facebook stalker I really am.2.) April 17- Do you sing in the shower? I do. But do you act out scenes from LOST in the shower? I do that, too. Favorites include: Any scene with Juliet, when Bernard talks to Jin about karma, or any scene that requires rain. I have a one-sided conversation with myself, as a LOST character. Does this make me crazy?

3.) April 18- I have an obsession with costumes and costume parties. If you give me an excuse to dress up, I will. And I will go all out with costumes, makeup, hair, etc. Which brings me to the next post. The origins of my costumed capers...

4.) April 19- When I was in middle school, Batman & Robin came out in theaters. I saw it many times with my friends because we thought it was the coolest film since Kazaam. Well, whenever we hung out, I would suggest that we reenact scenes from the movie. With Clay Lewis and Brad Greer as my witnesses, I swear to you that I would be Poison Ivy and they would be Batman and Robin. (I even had the red wig.) The bizarre part is that we wouldn't reenact the fight scenes or the action-heavy moments. No, no. We did the "acting" stuff, i.e. Poison Ivy is all sexy and Batman and Robin are clawing at each other for Ivy's attention. I believe this was the root of my obsession for costumes. I've always convinced myself that I was just tapping into my theatrical roots, but no...I think I liked myself with flowing red hair and kleenex boobs. Boy, did I have a &%#^ed up childhood.

5.) April 20- Until today, I thought the morning-after pill and birth control were the same thing.

6.) April 21- Do you talk to yourself? Sure, most of us recite things to ourselves for retention or when something might surprise us. But do you actually have conversations with yourself? ...I do.

7.) April 22- Remember that nice lady who died in the third season of Dexter? Her dying wish was to find the greatest slice of key lime pie in Miami. Well, just like that old coot, I am making a similar goal in life. With my roommate as my witness, I am attempting to find the greatest slice of cheesecake in Atlanta. I'm not gonna lie...I've taste-tested A LOT of cheesecake, in the past few weeks. Oddly enough, Kroger has my vote, thus far.

8.) April 23- I've never been interested in having children, but sometimes I pretend my stuffed animals are kids. I put a plate beside them so they can eat. Sometimes I let them sit at the window so they can watch the birds fly by. Just the other day, Elise found Hello Kitty sitting on the sofa, as my furry friend was watching cartoons. I am not joking.

9.) April 24- Do you ever give in to curiosity and research facts from your favorite movie? Or do you "internet stalk" a really hot celebrity, so you know everything about them? Well, I get in these bizarre moods where I Google autopsy photos and dead bodies. Today was one of those days...

10.) April 25- I don't know how it came up or how it happened, but I got into a lengthy discussion with my best friend, the other day. I was curious as to whether or not God was Jewish or a Christian. Yup, this can be classified under "Things You Should Never Admit".

11.) April 26 - I get really hungry around midnight. Instead of getting crackers or something small, I cook spaghetti or grill steak. Aim high, my friends. Let your midnight snack be a 3-course meal!

12.) April 27- I've significantly lowered my already low tolerance for soft drinks. It's pretty rare that I sip on a soda pop, even though our fridge is full of them. However, tonight, I had my first Coke (the last one was around December, I think). If you saw me tonight, you would have assumed I snorted something. It was a wild evening!

13.) April 28- Kittens and puppies. I want them to stay cute forever. Once they grow to be bigger than your fist, then it's time for them to go the way of Old Yeller. I feel the same way about children.
