Formspring Friday
Welcome to the first installment of Formspring Friday where you ask, I tell and then you laugh at me for being a giant dork. Sounds fair to me. Let’s get started.
What is your most unattractive habit?
Okay, scratch dork, add disgusting fool. I burp. I burp loud. So loud, I could beat a man in a burping contest. Have I ever tried? No. Do I try to hide it in the company of people who are not used to this ridiculous habit? Obviously. Just because I have gross habits doesn’t mean I flaunt them. Okay, next… I chew my hangnails. Listen… walking allllll the way to the bathroom for cuticle cutters seems silly when my teeth are right here! Also, what if I’m on the phone and someone gives me bad news or pisses me off? Middle finger cuticle chew time! Oh yeah! That’s part two of the second unattractive habit. I don’t chew *all* of my cuticles. Only the middle fingers and the insides of the thumbs. Writing all of this out is making me feel like a weirdo. I’m uncomfortable. Last bad habit… I smoke. I quit for a while and then this winter happened and there went that. Right out the window! Sometimes literally! Oh! I should so not be laughing about smoking. People die from it you know. The Surgeon General tells me so. On every single pack of cigarettes I buy. Thankfully, I do have it in my cards to quit this year so please don’t give me lectures via comment. I know the risks. I know it’s gross. I know it smells bad. And I know how much better the cheesecake would have tasted if I wasn’t a smoker. It’s easier said than done though and while I want to quit, I also don’t want to gain three hundred forty seven pounds in the process. I’m just saying. There ya go… top three most unattractive habits.
Do you have an innie or an outie?
If you are referring to my belly button place… I have an innie. And I have pictures to prove it! When I was little I really wanted an outie though. I’m not sure I have a structured sentence that begins with “I want an outie” and ends with “because…” to explain the reasoning behind it, but I sure did want a piece of skin jutting out of my belly button. I totally don’t get it either.
Who would you vote for to be the next President?
Droid! Duh! Because Droid Does! Also, Droid never lies. (anywhere but my nightstand when he’s charging and getting a good night’s sleep so he can entertain me the next day.) He never steals. (anything but my time as I waste away playing Jewels with an insanely high score.) He never gives me long speeches. (He just says “Droooid” when I have a new message.) His calculator works and he doesn’t get me into crazy debt by incorrectly balancing my bank statement. He’s a great leader! (Really! He led me all the way to my job interview yesterday with his GPS. He’s dreamy!)
(five hundred twenty eight words! a record for me!)
Have a great weekend!

I followed your here from Raised Queer. Your blog reminds me of mine in an informative rambl-y kind of way. But enough about me. How was the job interview?
Yay! I’m glad you made it over here! I’ll definitely check yours out. Also… the job “interviews” went actually more like “Hi! How are you? I need a job. Whatcha got?” Followed by… “We love your attitude. We’ll call you next week! I’m sure we have something for you!”
So we’ll see!
Thanks for asking! How nice!
You are insane! But I had a damn good laugh, though there was an eeuuwww moment,… that chewing nail thing. Euuww!!!
I don’t smoke but sometimes it seems like a good idea. My BFF smokes and when I would go cuckooo with stress, she remains calm, puffing away on that magic stick. I don’t like being cuckoo by myself.
I also have an innie! Hahhaha!
Crazy woman!
That’s the thing though… I don’t chew my nails. I just chew the cuticles. And only on certain fingers. Especially when I’m pissed off or sad. Sometimes when I’m really trying hard to concentrate. It gets really bad when I quit smoking too. I know… I’m weird.
Hahaha!! Innies unite!!!
Droid also sings to you with the best music when your friends call.
LOL!! Totally… My friends are fuckin’ mermaids in their flippy floppies.
I didn’t know you had a formspring account!!!
Great answers girlie! ox
Yeah I just signed up. Helloooo bandwagon!!
I want a Droid…. sounds lovely.
OMG Krysten… seriously…. you DO want one. Droid. Does. Really.
I signed up it mostly for blog material – but I’ve gotten zero questions
I love that you burp like a man – and that you mangle your cuticles – as an ex-manicurist I should scold you but that would be the pot calling the kettle black.
Maybe one day we should get together for a burping contest AND see who’s cuticles really look the worst
P.S. I love you – please quit smoking girl
LOL!!!Droid, huh?
I was chewing my cuticles as I was reading this. Now my thumb hurts. I do it when I’m nervous, anxious, pissed off or bored. You are not alone.
How fun! I too, have an inne.
I cannot believe how many of us chew on our limbs. What an awful habit. But I can’t help but to pick at the insides of my thumbs. It’s REALLY gross when I clean the floor mats in the car and out falls like a cup of my DNA. BLEH! But when you’re sitting at that light…it feels SOOO good.
Outties make for REALLY bad belly button rings…if you were ever into that.
I’ll quit tanning if you quit smoking. Because in a way, we’re both cooking. And that can’t be good.
I would SOOO vote for Droid. I bet Droid would lead to international peace and love.
I don’t know how to act when you only write 500 words….I’m starting to twitch.
How about R’s birthday party? Are you going to reveal that?
I think this is the shortest blog post I have ever seen from you! Are you feeling well!?
So what you are telling me is that Droid actually says that word when you have a new message? Do you realize what this means? I am going to have to drive to Annapolis where my best Droid-owning friend lives so that I may stand near her and send her a text. I need to hear this sound. My life depends on it.
Now I want some party stories! Did R have a lovely birthday!? (I’m sure he did because YOU are lovely!)
I quit smoking finally for New Years and surprisingly I havent cheated. I think I had tried so many times in the past I didnt build it up to be this HUGE daunting task that I could do, so I just said fuck it, smoked my last one right before bed New years day at like 3 am and havent had one since. Im just now able to go to bars and be around people who smoke and it not bother me, its hard yes, but impossible? It may seem it at times, but what got me through it was telling myself, im not going to die. It worked, I wish you the best, and im f’ing jealous of you until you quit.
I dont bite my nails or cuticles, I bite the skin on the sides of my nails, i guess its the side cuticle? Whatever, its not gross. Burping is hot too. Dont be embarassed.
Am sad:( I posted here yesterday and came back to check for updates…and I pissed-a-dear. (kid speak for disappeared)
Anywho…sticking around today to see if I stick. I’m wondering, would a Droid have let that happen to moi? Me thinks not. Droid for Prez.
ok i had to laugh because… im gonna suck all the fun out of this but the innie/outie question was mine. HA! of course, right? but… i am glad to know the truth now. anyhoo your answer about the droid really made my day cause… im getting one. like, this week. so we can make droid babies together and roll them around in strollers or swaddle them and talk about how much they’ve developed in this short time and omg they grow so fast and … jesus christ i need more coffee.
Just making sure you’re aliiiiiiiive!!!!!
