Weird things about me:
-I don't like reading e-mail with a ton of poor grammar or spelling. Like, it hurts my head, and I have a difficult time parsing what the person is trying to say. This annoys me even more at work, where imo, people should communicate professionally (even if it is to a co-worker and is over a minor issue).
-I will never look at a random link or attachment in an e-mail if someone doesn't tell me what it is. If you ever send me an e-mail that simply says "look at this!" and don't say what "it" actually is, I won't open it. I think it comes from a combination of having a computer at work that's historically been unable to run some things, a text-based e-mail program, being impatient about things opening (similarly, if a website is too slow to load I just won't look at it) and a paranoia about virus' (if Apples weren't so expensive I'd probably suck it up, take the plunge and get one for this reason).
-I take my dance classes pretty seriously. Aside from dance just being part of who I am, after going 3 years and being unable to take classes (and then over the 4 years of undergrad before that) its a big deal to me to be able to go now. I know not everyone takes it as seriously, but I'm not sure why one would commit to something like that if they didn't (like, if you don't like it, why are you here). Free time is just too precious. This is part of the reason I stopped bellydance classes - since I wasn't taking it as serious as I should have I was just wasting my time, my teachers time, and my other classmates time. I forget though that not everyone is as serious as me.
Unrelated, I have more things to get rid of. Does anyone want:
-A black velvet men's large size cloak lined in dark purple suiting liner? Its got a hood and duster attached, and Brian hasn't worn it in forever. Years ago it won 2nd place in a Salem Vampire's Ball Halloween contest.
-A freezer bag of animal print trim (I mentioned it to Kaz, but I just want it out of my house - so whoever I can get it to first gets it).
-I have 2 old small animal cages (I can post the sizes later if anyone is interested - I don't have them handy). They have been sitting in our attic and since House Rabbit doesn't seem to want them, they are going out on the sidewalk this weekend if nobody else needs them. They are metal w/ a drop tray underneath. They are in very good condition, we just don't use them anymore.
-A small plant table, probably about 1' square and 2' tall. The top is glass, bottom metal. Its been sitting in our attic.
I won't be at goffee this week but I'll be at the Ominous Collective (I could also bring things to goffee next week if necessary, though I'd prefer to not bring the cages or table there). Just let me know!
