El Hundo and other enumerations

The dashboard says I have a 100 posts on the blog. Fantastic.

I have noticed some nasty little quirks of mine as of late.

1) Whenever I go to eat at a Fast Food restaurant, I may not always grab the tray so that the fries are always facing away from me, but dog gone it, by the time I sit down with the beverage and my niece and the 19 year old fox that joined for me lunch so that she could see my niece for a spell, my fries will always be pointing away from me, and I will continue to awkwardly draw fries from the box out, until getting fed up and turning the tray around 10 minutes later.

2) I was using my computer case to store my computer and my documents in the same compartment. Often, I would unzip the case, take out my documents, start doing work for some marked amount of time, and then I would frantically notice I needed to be somewhere and gather up my documents and then grab my case and go - and my computer would fly out of the unzipped case.

3) I will type "you" instead of "your" in so many emails and other text documents it is worthy of slapping a grandma.

Also, another bad habit: I narrate during class. For instance, there is this gentleman in my class that wears a blazer and you can tell he uses face products and is into whatever the girl is into for the sake of appearing metrosexual. So, whenever he raises his hand, I say in my head "This week on The Blazer" as if he is the star of some TV show and this is the beginning minute of that show. I've gotten quite good at timing my narrator's voice with what he says, gesticulates, and hounds.

The bad thing is now the button is stuck in the 'on' position. Whenever I see him, I say "This week on -The Blazer".

The really bad thing is that I've been known to wear a blazer and it isn't even mine, but a professor's blazer on loan. The same professor I shared a bed with. In a hotel. Away from his wife.

Yeah, the professor is a dude. I will share a bed with a man, but I will NOT wear a woman's blazer.

Terrific.

Sharing a bed gives the wrong impression. There was only some mild spooning.
