Just a little fun!

 

  1. When I was about nine, I experimented with my mother’s razor and walked around with a hairless stripe on my shin.
  2. I’m totally that girl who picks all the fudge brownie, Oreo and cookie dough bits out of the ice cream, leaving a bowlful of melty cream.
  3. I hate talking on the phone, so I never answer mine.
  4. The first time I ever had a shot of tequila, some of it went up my nose.
  5. When we were kids, I took all the “good” candy out of my little brother’s bag and gave him all my “bad” candy. (Remember those disgusting sesame candies? The people who handed those out were LAME. Also, the Necco Wafers.)
  6. I use the handicap stall at my gym ALL THE TIME. I’ve never parked in a handicap spot, though!
  7. Sometimes, when I go to the frozen yogurt shop, I eat some of it before it gets weighed and I pay for it.
  8. I have a quart-sized Ball jar full of the Post-Its I stole from Barnes & Noble while I worked there. And by stole I mean I put them in my pockets and forgot about them until laundry time and never, ever took them back to work.
  9. Speaking of BN, I was supposed to turn in my badge when I quit my job, but I DIDN’T!
  10. When I go to the coffee shop all by myself, I sit at a two-person table instead of a one-person one.
  11. I never, ever read the newspaper.
  12. I have no compunction about using the change my roommates leave scattered around our common area. FINDER’S KEEPERS!

Don’t hate me! These confessions are made in good faith! No tomato-throwing!

Go on, tell the world!

  1. lol – We must be twins, especially with numbers:
    2, 3, and 12 ;D

    Haha… That was fun to read… And I totally relate with you about not answering my phone because I’m too lazy to make small talk… I thought I was a weirdo for feeling that way about phone calls, glad I’m not alone! :-)

    • Ruby says:

      It’s not laziness for me. It’s…I dunno. Shyness, probably. I panic when there are awkward pauses…and I think all pauses are awkward, so there you go!

  3. LOL those are fun confessions!
    I think you might be my evil twin… lol, when I was 10 I was playing with scissors and I cut a stripe in the middle of my eyebrow. Didn’t notice until HOURS later.

    And I totally never answer the home phone, if it’s important people who know me call me to my cell.

    And I have no problem using the handicap stall if it’s free. I mean, it’s there and no one is using it!
    :D

    • Ruby says:

      Ooh, I don’t have a eyebrow stories to tell, but I remember hiding underneath a desk in my classroom and cutting my hair. Oh, and painting my fingernails with white-out. Fun times.

      I don’t have a home phone, only my cell. Which is just as well. I’d NEVER answer my home phone. At least my cell as automatic caller ID. That way, if it’s my mom, I’m likely to answer it.

      The think about the handicap stall is that I’m half-afraid I’ll come out to find handicapped person waiting to use it. Then I’ll feel like a total heel.

  4. Logan says:

    Number 3 TWINSIES! Even with my friends. My sister and my husband are the only people I don’t ignore. I would so much rather text or email. Phones are awkward and I like to multitask, and when I need a snack I feel bad crunching on the phone.

    But I do like Necco Wafers. Just not those awful peanut butter flavored taffy things in the orange and black paper. GROSS.

    • Small Review says:

      I’ll take Necco Wafers AND the peanut butter taffy things! You two can have my candy corn. I LOATHE candy corn.

      • Ruby says:

        Yes to both! They are awkward. I don’t even like watching TV and not doing something else. I like to fold laundry or work on some mindless work project, like sorting. I need to keep my hands busy.

        Wow. I didn’t know ANYONE liked Necco Wafers and now here are the two of you. I like candy corn, which is odd because they’re just sugar. Well, high fructose corn syrup. But, I dunno, dye it orange, yellow and white and I’m there.

        • Small Review says:

          Ruby, JUST sugar? I think that’s more than enough to make something tasty. My mom used to get me these sugar eggs for Easter and they were amazing.

          But I doubt the sugar content of candy corn. I say it’s lightly sugared wax. I’ll trade you all my candy corn (that E doesn’t eat) for your Necco Wafers (I like the chocolate ones and the colored ones). Deal?

  5. Alexia561 says:

    Confession is good for the soul! Have to admit I didn’t turn in my B&N badge when I left either! :o

  6. Small Review says:

    I use the handicap bathroom stall ALL the time. I like having space. I also think you’re totally within your rights to use abandoned change. I made quite a killing when I was younger when I’d go through the couch cushions. I swear my dad’s pockets must have been filled with holes.

    I’m always getting in trouble with E for eating all the fudge ribbons, chocolate nut clusters, brownie bites, and other assorted ice cream goodies and then leaving behind boring ice cream with tunnels. He likes scooping out ice cream so it’s all in one even layer and then I come along and make it look like an ant farm.

    Also, I hate talking on the phone. But I’m getting better at it now that I live far away from my family. (And by better, I mean they have to call me only about three times now before I answer).

    We are soultwins! But of course we already knew that.

    • Ruby says:

      Seriously. Sometimes I wake up in the morning and think, “Am I Small or am I Ruby?” We’re just THAT soultwinny.

      It’s obvious we’ll never be able to share ice cream, though we have managed one phone conversation. I call that progress!
