Eight Random Facts About Me

Jeff at God of Biscuits tagged me with the "Eight Random Facts About Me" meme, and you know how I love me some memes. Here goes:

1. When it comes to matters of the heart, I think I --- the eternal optimist --- have finally become cynical and jaded.
2. I secretly suspect my friends think I'm the biggest flake on the planet. The reality is that I spend all of my disposable income on flamenco lessons.
3. I won't look in any mirror if I'm in the dark. I'm going to be thirty-fucking-five this year and I'm still freaked out about "Bloody Mary."
4. I worry too much about my parents. Maybe it's an only-child thing. Maybe it's carryover from the fact that:
   
5. I'm mildly hypochondriac-ish.
6. And OCD-ish. This is a relatively new development.
   
7. I think all of my friends are more exciting and cooler than I am.
8. I have this uncanny ability to look at someone just before they're about to hock a loogie. Don't be jealous.

Did I share too much, Boo?
