five uncool things about me

1. I played with My Little Ponies and She-Rah dolls until seventh grade.
2. The way I learned how to code HTML was because a handful of years ago, I had a roommate with a computer. It was the first time I had ever used the internet and knew nothing about using PCs. I had decided to make a web page and was slowly learning the HTML. I wanted to join webrings, so I needed to put the code on my webpage. I didn't know how to cut and paste, or even that it existed, so I painstakingly WROTE ON PAPER the HTML code, then typed it into Notepad or my webshell. I'm now so focused on hand-coding HTML, that I have a very hard time using things like Dreamweaver to do it for me.
3. The movie "Stand By Me"? Yeah, I've seen it well over a hundred times. I know it verbatim.
4. I've been wearing all black clothing for so long that I am now highly uncomfortable when I wear any other colour. Also, my underwear's colour absolutely MUST match the colour of whatever I'm wearing on the outside or I am equally uncomfortable. Mismatched bras and panties do not happen ever happen, either.
5. I sleep with a stuffed Sylvester the Cat that I have had since I was four. He's terribly ratty looking: all his white bits are now grey bits, he's missing one eye and the other eye's paint has all rubbed off so it's white and blind-looking, his fur is matted and he's been sewn back together by my mother more times than I can count. But he's mine and he's real and I have an incredibly hard time sleeping without him. He travelled with me to New Orleans, Las Vegas, Scotland, England, all the places I have gone to. Not to mention every single camping trip I've ever been on.
