10 things I hate about...


I am curiously selfish–I am consistently engaged in an angst-ridden tug of war with myself about... well, myself. So here's the list of things I don't like about myself.

A note to the reader: I have discovered that some of these things have been considered some of my strongest attributes by those who love me most; some even claim "that's why I love you." However, I have also found that the very people who make these statements are also those who are the most annoyed by these blacklisted qualities of my personality.

Read on.

10. I am often overcome by the desire to pick my toe nails with a vengeance, and sometimes I leave them on the coffee table for Adam to unwittingly encounter.

9. I bought my first mac because I thought it was "cuter" than a pc.

8. I bought the one I have now because it's black like the one Carrie Bradshaw wrote on during Sex and the City.

7. I am fascinated by my pores and have been known to examine them in the mirror (on my tip-toes because it's too high for me to look directly in to) for prolonged periods of time.

6. I am vain.

5. I am a "yeller"

4. I never read the Bible, but I believe in God

3. I am a messy neat-freak.

2. I am picky about stupid things: like, for instance, "I'll have a venti organic white mocha with 2 pumps" and then I wait to see my order on the monitor before I drive to the window (where I observe someone pumping the syrup like a maniac)

1. I don't want to be materialistic, but I continue to define myself in terms of my "stuff"
