Belle, you are after my own heart! I LOVE Zoo Tycoon and I let my dog sleep on my husband's side of the bed in the morning after he leaves for work.
-I am a computer game addict. I love Neopets, which is the dumbest mind-numbing thing on the internet. But any game is fine really.
-I slept with a stuffed animal until I was out of college. I still need that huggy, but now I use a puffy pillow.
-(long story) I was writing a short story about a man in an orange Thing (the car) who I see on my morning commute every morning. He is traveling the opposite direction and I have this whole story made up in my mind that my former single self (I am happily married so this is all in my mind) will run into him at a gas station or something and I will stumble over myself trying to talk to him since I feel like I know him after seeing him everyday for the past 3 years. This my former single self will correspond with him through windsheild messages until a budding romance begins. When I mentioned this story to a friend at work, she told me that she knows who I am talking about and that he drops his kids off at the same school her son goes to. Now I am sad and have abandoned the story.
-I have had a medical condition that would be very easily fixed, but I am too embarrassed to bring it up with my doctor.

-I pretend that trends are started by me. Such as this thread. I totally already started a confession thread elsewhere. And cherries in fashion. I searched forever for a dress with cherries on it, then when I found one, 6 months later, the whole world followed me!
-I sleep with a teddy bear. His name is Bob. My husband gave him to me when we were engaged so that me and him could "cuddle" all night. Now that we're married, I need to cuddle at night, and he can't sleep if he's cuddling, so I still sleep with Bob. I even took him to Europe with me.

I eat avocados with a spoon, straight from the peel.
I quite often leave the dishes for my husband. Even though he's tired and works hard and I know I shouldn't, and I don't even MIND dishes that much once I start them; I even enjoy them, in fact.
I bribed my husband to get him to give in and agree not to circumcise our sons. I won't tell you what form the bribery took.

I have had a line from a song that probably doesn't exist in my head for the past 24 hours. It came to me in a dream, and it felt very, very real then and right after I woke up. But it's not even good, and I'd be surprised if it is real.

I am a lifelong and, thus far, incurable procrastinator...if anyone knows a cure, let me know!
I love making long-range life plans and planning trips, but I'm horrible at making or following day-to-day plans (or even hour-to-hour).
I'm plotting ways for me to acquire British citizenship, which includes marriage just for that purpose.

quote:- I don't know any lullabies, so I sang my kids to sleep with The Lumberjack Song.
Heck, when I run out of lullabyes, hymns, and soft pretty love songs, I turn to murder ballads. My mom used to sing "The California Drinking Song" to me-- put me right out every time as an infant. I don't think "The Lumberjack Song" is that bad...

I just created the Empire State Building... out of styrofoam insulation.
I'm adopting a pair of kittens - whose current names are Fiazko and Pooka. And no the mother's human family are NOT Jatraqueros! (I'm lobbying for either Elphaba and Fiyero or Mungojerrie and Rumpleteazer for new names, though)

I named two of the characters in my NaNoWriMo story after Bob. When I've been stuck for names for other new characters I've pulled a screenname at random from the front page of hatrack and rearranged some of the letters.

I teach my students the drinking games I play with my friends at happy hour. (they don't know they are drinking games though)

No, that part was intentional. It was after deciding two of the characters were named Bob that I had the idea to just steal names- er, be inspired by names on hatrack whenever I was at a lose for what to call a character. (It's nanowrimo, not like there's time to think of character names after all.) Back when I'd originally had the story idea he'd asked if there was anyone named Bob in it, and so I decided there was. It's kind of a long story, really. Not as long as it should be. There's almost 40,000 more words to go by the end of the month!
--Enigmatic (too tired to check if that made sense)

Well, I've never plucked a rooster and I'm not too good at ping-pong And I've never thrown my mashed potatoes up against the wall And I've never kissed a chipmunk and I've never gotten head lice And I've never been to Boston in the fall
And I've never licked a spark plug and I've never sniffed a stink bug And I've never painted daisies on a big red rubber ball And I've never bathed in yogurt and I don't look good in leggings And we've never been to Boston in the fall

We are the Pirates who don't do anything, we just stay at home and lie around and if you ask us to do anything, we'll just tell you, we don't do anything!

I used to play the Star Wars card game with my brother. I would still play it if I could find somebody to play against me too.
I don't mind the smell of earwax
I have a plastic ring on my ring finger of my left had that I've had there since playing the role of Wendy in my school's production of Peter Pan.

We need to leave for church in 30 minutes or so, and I'm still sitting in my jammies posting on Hatrack.

These are great! I especially liked using the force to open grocery store doors. I do it by magic, sort of the way Gandalf might.
When my cats meow I answer them back in English as though they said very specific detailed things which are often rather surprising.
When I play music, I sometimes dance around the living room in an ad-lib style that merges ballet, martial arts, gymnastics, and yoga moves.
I sometimes narrate pretend-documentaries about my daily tasks as I go about them, in a fake Richard Attenborough voice.
My favorite thing to do is laugh until my sides hurt and I'm gasping for breath. My friends are so funny that this happens fairly often.

I had to lie in church somewhat today. They offered lunch in Sunday School, but it was stuff that wasn't appealing to me. So rather than offend, I just said I wasn't hungry, and then I went to Taco Bueno afterwards.

I can't stand milk at all. I had to be conned into drinking breast milk as a baby, and as a kid and an adult I refuse to drink it all. Stupid milk.

- I am no longer wondering why Alt is slightly mad.
- I'm tired of being threatened by people. I've been told, "I'll kill you," or "Don't make me kill you," so many times lately.
