1. I have every single song ever recorded by the Avett Brothers on my ipod.
2. Dill pickles are my absolute favorite food. Bread and Butter pickles and Sweet pickles are an abomination of nature.
3. In the wintertime when it is cold and dreary, I almost exclusively wear shades of black/gray. I just recently noticed this.
4. I told myself that 2011 would be the year I broke back into wearing contacts, but as you can see I still am not regularly following through on this one.
5. The left side of my hair always looks better than the right. Always.
6. My cat, Gobble, only likes me when Andrew isn't home.
7. Technically, I have a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. Also, I haven't used these skills in about 5 years now.
8. My favorite work of literature is Jane Eyre. I can literally read it over and over again and get something new every time.
9. Nothing thrills me more than a student asking if than can have extra discussion group sessions about their novels. (This happened recently!)
10. My second biggest fear is falling off the bed. I have no idea of the underlying psychological meaning behind that. My biggest fear is too embarrassing to mention.
11. I'm obsessed with the TV show "Criminal Minds," even though the first time I saw it I thought the acting was horrible. I still hate Garcia a little, but the stories are so fascinating! The only problem is that now I sort of play out serial-killer scenarios everywhere I go - though I'm the analyst, not the killer, mind you.
12. I always put away leftovers with every intention of eating them tomorrow.
13. e.e. cummings is my absolute favorite poet because he nonsensically makes perfect sense.
14. One of the most moving moments of my life was when a friend and I got lost in a small town in the Ukraine and accidentally witnessed a traditional funeral procession. The profound beauty of it will never leave me.
15. I met the love of my life when we were fourteen and I didn't know it until he had been my friend for almost five years.
