Oddities

Alright. Well, if I were to call myself a bit of an oddball, I really don't think anyone would protest much. And I was looking through some blogs and I found this really interesting thing on Picture Imperfect where she did 44 Odd Things About Me. And since I take those all the time on Facebook, and it looked kind of interesting, and is helping me procrastinate on my homework that I brought with me on break, I thought, well..what the hell. Let's give it a go. You might find something out that you didn't already know.

I think so. I really hope so. But honestly he's driving me up the wall with his inability to communicate. Or my inability to correctly read the signs.
