I have written two novels, and have another one in my head. I'm afraid to send them out to an agent or a publisher because I'm afraid they won't like them. I haven't told my friends or family for the same reason. I hide them in the bottom of the freezer in case there's a fire.

When somebody rubs me the wrong way, I LITERALLY bite my tongue to prevent myself from saying anything out of anger.

I have hair on my toes and shave it and am absolutely embarrassed and weirder out about it. (does anybody else have hair on their toes?)

hmm, I absolutely can't stand the sound of somebody eating, even if they're eating with their mouth closed and not abnoxiously, it makes me want to stab people with rusty spoons.

i also met people online and tried to hide it from my family when i was young. in several cases, i am surprised i did not die because of how simply stupid i was being.

one time, i was living in san fran and decided to meet someone off the internet who was an ex-cage fighter turned bounty hunter. i wanted to say i got a date with a bounty hunter. when he showed up (yes, i gave him my address) he turned out to be about 15 years older than stated, covered in white power and prison tatts, and was actually an ex con who gave me a fake name, dealt only in cash, had no actual address (lived in a trailer in a friends mom's horse pasture), and would go on random rants... - however - all of that aside - he was the most mannerly person i've ever spent an evening with and no, i did *not* see him again.

lets see... what else... i decided to try being an escort once because i didnt fully understand all that was involved. i honestly believed the agency when they told me it was dinner dates and companionship. - apparently - its not!!! and i left running to the body guard driver guy as soon as things turned in a way i wasnt expecting. he laughed at me and drove me home. sometimes, im far too naive.

lets see.. what else... i firmly believe my pets save my sanity. having something depend on me gives me a focus i would not have otherwise.

:lol: I had a good friend in high school who during our senior year, thought this would be a great idea. Since we grew up near Aspen, she had grand visions of celebrities and money just for going out to dinner with someone.

She went to meet with the lady who ran the company and had herself a big wake-up call.

ME EITHER.

This drives me innnnsane. Especially cold cereal. I know people who I refuse to eat with because they simply make too much noise and it makes my skin crawl. What, is your mouth too small to close all the way??

People who chew and crunch ice... it should be banned in public. It's like nails on a chalkboard to me. My mom didn't allow us to do it when little (bad for our teeth, she claimed), so when I got out into the world and co-workers and friends were chomping ice left and right, well, I just can't stand it!!!! I don't say anything because I guess they have a right to crunch, but I sometimes have to leave the room.

And, I shave my toes, well, just my big toe. I get pedi's with a friend from time to time, and she has the hairiest toes and feet. I always wondered why she didn't think to shave.

As far as I go... most people who know me would be surprised that I am an inner recluse or hermit. I'm very talkative and outgoing when I'm around people, but I really need a lot of time to myself to stay sane. I think most people don't know that about me!

yes

I have toe hair too. Always so embarrassing to go to get a pedicure and realize that it hasn't been groomed recently..

I thought I was alone on the toe hair thing. Thank god I'm not. ahaha I'm thinking about getting lazic hair removal for it.

Cool thread!
One, of the many things, that no one knows about me....If I'm going to do something, big or small, I will miticulously plan every detail in my head. It sounds OCDish but I dunno.
I'll give you an example incase I'm explaining it badly. Like if I'm sitting down watching TV and I need to clean something up I will run it in my head before I actually get up.

Anyway I think its very strange!

I wax my big toes. ;)
I also think Anderson Cooper is a total hottie - I don't care that he's gay.

Other things:
I never had a cavity until I was 40
I've never broken a bone
I've never had stitches
I can recite the first stanza of the Canterbury Tales in Old English
I'm poly

Toe Hair

I totally have toe hair too and I also shave it off because I think that it is weird a gross. You are not alone!!! :)

I can bend my pinkie so that the fingertip touches my palm without having to bend my ring finger at all -- so when I count on my fingers, I start with my thumb as "one", index finger and thumb as "two"...and by the time I get to "four" I only have the pinkie still down.

When I'm alone and baking (sometimes cooking, but mostly baking) I have a running cooking show dialog in my head. If no one is home, sometimes the commentary is out loud.

I've been job hunting and I interview myself while I'm cleaning....

And watching tv...


And going to the bathroom.
