What's up with Whatsit

10 Random Things about Whatsit . . .

. . .that you didn't necessarily want to know.

1. I hate cutting my toenails.

2. I feel like I will die if I don't have a sausage, egg, and cheese Mcmuffin from McDonalds for breakfast every morning. With a Coke. A LARGE Coke. If I start my day pleasantly, the whole day goes pleasantly.

3. I don't want to be bothered while I'm eating it either. I like to read whatever my current book is while I'm eating. At lunchtime, I pass right by all the other adults at the faculty table and sit by myself to read.

4. I am not a TV watcher. I don't like CSI or anything else currently on TV. I tend to like old stuff like Frasier and Seinfeld. Or even older stuff like Sanford and Son and the Golden Girls. The most recent show that I like is Boston Legal, and it went off the air. Thank God for reruns.

5. There are one or two people everywhere I go that don't get on my nerves. There are one or two at work that don't. There are one or two at my church that don't. There are one or two at the public places I frequent, like the public library and Wal-Mart, that don't. This says more about me than it does them: namely, that I can't tolerate stupid people.

6. I can't stand smoking. I don't want to be within a hundred miles of a smoking person. This said, I will fight to the death for your right to smoke.

7. One time, when I was a teen-ager and had a Camaro, I had three girls in the car with me. This old man in an eight-hundred year old pickup truck wouldn't let us on the interstate, just to be contrary. So when we were finally able to pass him, all four of us stuck our tongues out at him.

8. I love those rotisserie chickens you can get from the grocery store. I love them more than anything else in the world, even chocolate. My favorite thing to eat with it is Rice-a-roni.

9. I wish I had gotten a tattoo when I was young and stupid. Now that I am old and not stupid, I feel like I don't have an excuse to get one.

10. Working for a living sucks.
