I'm posting this confession here because I couldn't decide whether to put it in the Reading is Sexy thread or the Game of Thrones thread, so here goes:

I confess that when I read a book and I feel some huge revelation or twist is about to happen, I literally skip paragraphs or even pages to read that part. Meaning, I do not let the suspense build and read the book as it goes.

Horrible, right?

Just now, I was reading whatever information I could get on Season 3 of Game of Thrones online because I am so hyped for it after seeing the behind the scenes video that's going around. So now, I basically know who's going to die in Season 3 before it even begins.

I'm always reading spoilers in book and movie reviews. Yep. I spoil everything for myself. Make sense out of that!

I have to cover the page with my hand so my eyes can't skip forward, always resisting the temptation to read the last few sentences of the book.

Hahhaha I do this, too!! I have no idea what part of my brain drives me eyes towards the bottom of the screen, but it's annoying and kinda ridiculous considering I am fully aware of what I'm doing :p
 
We're allowed to wear Christmas t-shirts to work this week. The others cringed. I thought about all the ones I already have in my cupboard ready and waiting... :reject:

It's the one time of the year when you can get away with being a bit silly sometimes. :hyper:

Nah--I only have like one, which I got from my sister. Got lots of Christmas pins, though. And I love to sit in the living room with only the lights of the Christmas tree and listen to Celtic Christmas music on accuradio.com :reject:

You're not alone. That sounds heavenly. :love:
 
Feeling extremely fed up. Have had a mystery illness since early December, referrals to specialists are taking forever (6 - 8 months). Getting joint pain in my hips as well when I walk. Have sunk below 100 pounds despite eating. Not happy with where I am in life, not sure where I'm headed or even, why I'm still here.
 
The DJ's on the radio station I listen to keep going on and on about how much they love Alt-J...I don't get it...all I hear is Adam Sandler! :huh:
 
:wink: That makes me old too then, because I don't have a clue either. Is Adam Sandler one of your idols winners or something?
 
Ya'll who don't know them should check them out. They were this year's Mercury Prize winners (which alone doesn't mean much), but they've got my seal of approval, which should. And unlike a lot of British bands, they're actually seeing some success in the U.S. They've gone from playing bars to large venues in SF. They're good lyricists, and they've done a great job of combing folk with electronic music (something that's been a trend for a while).

I've decided to switch my major from Echocardiography which I was doing because it was suggested but not many people know about it, to that of Paramedicine Technology, something I actually want to do. Are there any paramedics here that have any advice for the future? If so, do you like it, is it rewarding for you and what do I need to avoid when training?

Might go back to Echo in the future, but right now I don't want to waste anymore time than I have to.
 
I don't find newborn babies cute or in any way appealing. At all. One of my friends had a baby girl this week, and of course I was interested to see the baby because she's my friend's daughter and all. But then I get into these awkward situations where my other female friends at work look at the pic and go, awwww isn't she cute??? I can't tell an outright lie so I'm forced to duck the question or make some ambiguous noises.
 
:lol: BUt they aren't cute, that's the stupid thing. They're ugly naked little humans. I truly cannot see why people would say they're soooooo cute. Sure, if it's your child you'll think it's beautiful because it's yours. But yeah, someone else's child? No thanks.
 
Maybe as newborns they look funny, but in a few months they are cute! :)
 
I have good news to report: I am officially no longer under my parents' roof and now living in Brooklyn.

I used to be my parents' tenant. They had a two family house and I had the apartment. But since I'm 30, and there was a lot of tension between my dad and I, I moved out. I found a good roommate arrangement, good rent, nice area, amazing transportation. Plus, I'm closer to some of my Brooklyn friends and this borough is more my place than Staten Island was.

Anyway, yay me! :happydance:
