Because I miss surveys and hate notes on FB

25 Things About Me
  1. My mom has 16 siblings
  2. My dad has 9 siblings
  3. I'm an only child
  4. I recently started eating meat again after 14 years as a pescetarian. I don't think I'll ever get used to it and will always continue to be on the lookout for meatless options.
  5. I'd do anything for my cat, I truly think we've saved each other's lives and have a special bond.
  6. Even though I have such a large extended family I'm not really close to anyone, including my parents
  7. At the same time though, my worst fear is my parents dying
  8. I'm almost at hermit status right now and try to avoid contact with people as much as possible
  9. If I had my way I would sleep all day
  10. I don't particularly enjoy baths, but miss them when the option isn't there
  11. I over analyze just about everything in my life, sometimes to the point of it driving me insane
  12. Reading is my favorite past time, with listening to music coming in as a close second
  13. I hate milk but love most dairy products
  14. I live by myself and absolutely love it
  15. I've never seen Jurassic Park and refuse to ever see it
  16. I was born in Denver and lived in Littleton, CO and would have been at Columbine High School on the day of the shootings if we hadn't moved to Wisconsin when I was 11
  17. I fell off a mechanical horse when I was 4 years old and got a concussion
  18. I traveled around Germany and other places in Europe right after I graduated high school
  19. I often wonder "What if..." but I try not to think too much and think that everything has happened for a reason even if I never know what that reason is
  20. I'm an extremely private person
  21. I'm kind of worried about my future, especially as I'm getting older
  22. I'm obsessed with Smurfs and anytime I see one that I can afford at the time I pick it up
  23. I just got my first mosquito bite of the year :X
  24. I joined a gym a few weeks ago but have a difficult time going unless I just got done with work
  25. My parents met at work and now 30 years later still work with the same company
 
Three cheers for surveys! Or I guess pseudo-survey in this case. I'll have to do one of these when I get home from work today.

BTW-- I still find it hard to get to the gym unless I'm coming straight from work. In my case it has to do (at least partly) with the fact that I live nowhere near where I work, but my gym is only 5 minutes from my office. So I just have my schedule set up so that I do most of my working out during the week, and have an 'optional' day on the weekend.
 
I like surveys too (as you know) :)

I empathize with so much of this, especially the overanalytical part. I think worrying about our future as we approach the big 3-0 (so many of us are turning 30 next year - we need to have a party full of droogs and strippers lol) is natural. Definitely don't be too hard on yourself. You've led an interesting life so far, so much more so than the people who took the "traditional" path. 30 is the new 25. ;)
