Kate tagged me to disclose Six Weird Things about myself.
1. I have a stylized tattoo of a root vegetable on my ankle.
2. I don't speak Italian, but I usually say "thank you", especially to store clerks, by saying Grazie.
3. I can get pretty obsessed about finding a rare or obscure DVD, finally find it, and then never watch it.
4. As soon as I get home, whoosh, off come my pants. When people call and say they're coming over at night and I say, "Well, then I'll put on some pants" I'm not being cute -- I'm really not wearing pants.
5. My longest continuous, non-family relationship is with Latte, a cat who hates everyone.
6. When I'm walking, I put out my hand and drag it along whatever I'm walking next to -- the wall, fences, file cabinets, etc. At work, with lots of file cabinets everywhere, I'm sure it's annoying to people as I plonk-plonk-plonk past their offices. Sorry, can't help it.

Number 6: This must be a family trait; I usually do it so I can read and walk at the same time.
Number 2: I say Gracias. But then again, I live in Buenos Aires (and Austin before that) they speak Spanish here.

Since I don't have a blog, I'll post 6 weird things about me here:
1. I have a broad collection of 1000s of CDs, now conveniently converted to a collection of obsessively organized MP3s and AACs, yet I usually sit in silence in front of my computer.
2. I'll eat spicy food beyond the point of tearing up or sweating.
3. The longest I've lived in one place since moving out of my parents' house has been 2 years and four months in Pittsburgh. With my parents, it was 6 years in Columbia, MD.
4. I'm a vegetarian, well, mostly-vegetarian. I say "mostly" because I will eat fish only if I can see the water it was caught in.
5. I usually sleep 4-5 hours a night and rarely more than 6.
6. I can only get over a hangover by going running -- especially challenging on those sloshy tummy days.
