- I feel a little uncomfortable shaking all the hands at church during that time when you're supposed to get up and shake everybody's hand. I just feel like I'm picking up all kinds of germs. I actually sit with my "shaking" hand away from my body for the rest of the service.
- I've always thought I would die in a fit of spontaneous combustion, probably after the Democrats nominate Hilary Clinton for president.
- I have a horrible compulsion to peel and chew my fingernails. It's a shameful, disgusting habit I know, and it's a demon I constantly battle.
- I think gravity is an interesting theory.
- I wear only two styles of sock, white (on the weekends) and black (during the work week). Seriously, I buy multiple copies of the same black sock so I don't have to worry about having "pairs" of socks.
- Sometimes I think the hokey pokey is what it's all about.
- I absolutely almost loose it in crowded elevators, especially if people only take the elevator up one or two flights. I mean COME ON!
- I hold a very dim view of people who spend too much time working on their MySpace pages (not you of course, just other people).
- I would never actually do this, but sometimes, when I'm driving at night down a two-lane highway and I see the headlights of an approaching car in the other lane, I wonder what it would be like to veer into the other lane at the last second and get into a head-on collision. Please don't hate me.
- I wonder if anybody really "fits in," I mean really.

Monday Malaise: Tell me something I don't know
I've seen this sort of thing on other blogs, and since I'm a radical conformist I realized I had no choice but to post a few random thoughts myself.

I enjoyed your random musings.
ReplyDeleteIf you have a habit of chewing your nails, maybe you're right to be worried about shaking hands!
Here's a suggestion -- bring a bottle of Purell along (mild hand disinfectant) and rub it on after shaking hands. Or maybe before AND after . . . . to deal with the nail chewing thing . . . .
Not that I think you're any less clean than the rest of us. We're pretty much all germy people, like every other living thing, but someone we muddle through.

ReplyDeleteI hate the whole hand shakey thing too. Not because of the germs... I'm just deeply misanthropic :)

ReplyDeleteThought I was the only one with that weird thought. And no, I would never do it either.
