I Feel Like A Little Confession Today

I'm gonna confess the most random things I can think of, and I may have already told you, but hopefully you forgot.


Photobucket


* I ENJOY eating a number of non-edible things, including, but not limited to: straw wrappers, sugar packets, hot glue sticks, toys made out of soft plastic, toothpicks, the glue on some envelopes that is really stretchy, lickable stamps, and finger AND toe nails.

* I am crazy phobic of visiting, calling people and starting instant message conversations. BUT I can email or text with ease because I know the recipient is free to peruse and respond at will. If I could email the sisters I'm supposta visit teach, I'd be 100% every month. Calling and visiting strangers, especially when I have to pretend to be friends the moment I meet them, is vastly outside my comfort zone.

* I let my children play violent video games (Halo, Explosion Man, Limbo, Paradise City) and I don't think it will harm them.

* I should probably start awarding peacemaker points to reinforce the good behavior I want tho, just in case I'm wrong.

* After we put the kids to bed, my husband asks me what I want to do, I always say Karaoke and I mean it, but he doesn't really want to know what I want to do, he wants to do what he wants to do, which usually involves the TV. He's a really good singer. It would be so fun if he would give up his self consciousness and PLAY with me.

*I love my (underpaid, unrespected) job. I really, really enjoy it, but sometimes, when I am the only teacher with 15-20, 18 mos - 5 year old children ... and that one kid keeps going, "Miss Braaaaaaaandeeeeeee, Canon touched my paaaaaaper," I get a little mean. Cuz if I don't "fix" things FOR this kid, he starts poking kids with pencils, vigilante like. And someone's elbow brushing your paper is not worthy of a stab in the arm. I get a little yankee. It's not just when he hurts my baby, he's sneaky mean to all the kids who bother him. And he is a very emotionally needy child, but demands the affection. "Huggeee! huuuggggeee! " It's creepy. I like most kids, but there are some kids that it's very, very hard to like.

* I really like leaving my kids at school when I get off at nap time. I highly recommend it.

* There are days when I would do just about anything to have a sushi friend.

Hot glue sticks?! Is that safe??? haha

I have a big phobia about visiting people. Family members get mad at me for not visitng them enough, but I just get so anxious. What will I do when I get there? What do I talk about? How long should I stay?

I also ALWAYS knock which annoys one of my friends. He's always like, "you're here enough to where you can just come in" - but I think it's so rude!

I can sometimes convince my hubby to dance with me to Just Dance for the Wii. It's so much fun.
I don't do face to face stuff so well--especially if I don't know anyone. Once I know people, I do much better.

Me too (re: sushi). Why don't more people want to gorge themselves on it? Slackers.

I love sushi. One of these days I am going to stumble upon a cheap flight to Austin and go visit people, since I have a handful of old friends there (you included!). We can go eat sushi AND do karaoke. :)
