Things I know I shouldn't do, but do anyway...

Comments

I do at least half of these too. I've never sexually harassed a Mormon guy on a bike though. I think I may have to try it. ;)

And I've been wearing these disposable contacts for at least 6 months now.

I share many of these with you. Do you feel like you've done a lot of work after watching an episode of Clean House? I usually stand up, look around and wonder why there's shit all over the place after turning off the tv.

You should get that lump checked out. I share your mistrust of western medicine, but sometimes you have to go.
TOTALLY! OMG Valerae, Clean House does that to me, too! And yes, you are so right about the boob lump. I will. I promise.

lump definitely should get checked out.

some of what is listed add fun to life. without it, life would be so boring.

::cringes inside:: haha...yup...got some of those on my list, too! :)

....although the ride of bikes with dangerous boys thing hasn't happened since I got married...lol! :) I don't think my hubby would approve...lol! :)

Check out that lump. Recycle that plastic. Sorry, riding the motorcycle with dangerous boys was my hobby of choice when younger, so I cant see anything wrong with that one.

And everyone has to make generalisations to keep life flowing - generalisations and manners being the oil in the machine - so basing it on books and/or musical taste is as good a way as any.


Meant to add - great post. I have done most of these myself. Including I should not judge overweight people who wear clothes that let me see that obesity - rather I should be pleased for their pleasing lack of shame - but I just can't.

And I meant to tick the [this is good] box. Only two glasses of wine and I am ceasing to function as a typing human being.

I do many of these things too. I'm really trying to stop picking at my face and biting my fingers for the wedding photos, but the actual stress of planning it makes me want to do those things even more.

Oh yeah, I think everyone is judgmental. At least you can admit it, right?

Surely check the lump.

Are you this woman?

great list, you've inspired me to start a list makers group
[this is good]
wow...a lot of these are on my "shouldn't do" list as well...especially with the obsessive lists and the sweeping character assumptions and the sushi (god, all the sushi!). some (like the generalizing and the teeth grinding) i continually make a concerted effort to fix, but some flaws (hello, sushi, sexually harassing mormon boys!) are just too fun to fix. :)

Ride on motorcycles with dangerous boys

I suspect Steve would be proud of that description

Make sweeping character assumptions based on musical taste and book collections

I just rec'd the first 2 of 5 collections of mild BDSM erotica. Did your assumption of my character increase or decrease?

Ignore the lump in my breast

BAD GIRL!! (though I admit to having done the same) I'm certain you can get that checked out for free - if you put a wee bit of effort into finding resources.

Overextend the use of my contact lenses

If you knew the things that I know (I work in the ophthalmic industry), you wouldn't dare do that!!

[this is good]
Haha, keep it up!

(Except for the lump. Have that checked out.)
miss scotch, if narcisissm were a recipe for love, we might be soul mates. ok, that's a bit much, but your list just struck to the heart. "oh my god it's my twin!" but which of us would be the evil one? hmmm...i must order my love taps soon. thanks for helping me laugh at my own list of "shouldn'ts"
[this is good]
there isnt too much on that list that you should feel ashamed about. especially the sushi and harassing the mormons! but tsk tsk to your lump neglect!
If you want to have fun with your obsessive chore lists, check this site out. I discovered it yesterday. You can set positive and negative goals(negatives being bad habits that you want to avoid). You earn or lose points based on the things that you do. I am finding it a bit addictive at the moment. I know, I am a dork.

I liked this so much... I'm gonna do this:

Pick at my face when I am stressed - not sure about this one... is there a hole in it ? Never use gloves/respirators - I'm assuming you mean at work... I occasionally do that to. Think less of people that put clothing on their pets - No, you should be doing that. Keep up the good work. "Read" fashion magazines -I "read" playboy for the articles (no that's not a lame excuse it's the truth) so I really can't judge. Care what people think - Shame on you. You're going to hell... Patronize shady nail salons - Something I can honestly say I'd never do... Assume other people are happier/better off... and they're judging you... Move every 6-months - That's an awesome thing to do, as long as you don't have kids. I wish I could do that. Eat meat - Um... not seeing the bad here... are you feasting on the still-beating heart of a defenseless kitten? If so, you should defintely stop. Take birth control pills - Yeah they have lots of potentially dangerous side effects... and are certainly no help when you're trying to have kids, but sometimes they are the lesser of two evils. Don't call friends enough - Kay, I'll give you that one. Use Q-tips - Uh... what are you using them for? Ride on motorcycles with dangerous boys - And listening to that "rock" music! Didn't your momma teach you better? Eat expired foods - Hey, Penicillin is mold... what doesn't kill you makes you stronger, right? Drink way too much coffee - Trust me, I have friends on Vox who sing "ode to Starbucks" daily and I have friends in the Real world who would sit down at coffee for 3 hours having over 10 cups containing no-less than 4-lumps of sugar each and then begin doing their very best impersonation of a hummingbird... you're probably ok. Grind my teeth at night - Okay you shouldn't do that... but it's subconcious (quite literally) so I don't think it's going to impact your Karma any... Drive a car - Exactly! You should drive a TRUCK! With big 26 inch Rims, a 8-inch suspension lift, with a turbo, exhaust vents, and a V10 engine that get's 2 miles-per gallon and stop at every gas-station along the way. Geeze get on that will ya. Sexually harass Mormon boys on bikes - Nooo... you should continue doing that. They're better for it. Trust me. Cross the street with ipod on - The cars will stop when they see how cool and trendy you are. No need to fret. Make sweeping character assumptions based on musical taste and book collections - That's a blog post all on it's own... I'm interested in your method here, is their a point system? Walk alone, by myself, at night, anywhere at anytime - Carry bear spray. Multi-purpose for both city and country wandering... just for the love of God, don't spray it into the wind and don't inhale! Throw away plastic bottles when I am sick of carrying them, rather than bringing them home to recycle - I don't see the bad here either, seriously, homeless people collect them so it's like giving to the poor. It's doubly good if you throw them into a mesh bin they're sure to be picked up then. Ignore the lump in my breast - Uh, birth control pills increase the possibility of breast cancer significantly. You might wanna get that looked at. Eat lots of sushi - You (and 5 billion japanese folks and about 10 million trendy westerners...) are so screwed! Bite the skin on the side of my nails - I do that too... we should stop. Distrust Western medicine - Nothin wrong with that. Trust should be earned. Whine when I am sleepy or hungry - Hell is waiting... Live on the edge of over-drafting my account every month - The sign you live a life on the edge. Pass judgement on others - Hey, as I pointed out earlier... they're doing it to you, might as well beat-em to the punch! Overextend the use of my contact lenses - Bah! Just set-up a Lasic appointment while you're getting a breast examination. Believe 95% of what people tell me - If you're doing that in this case You-Are-So-Screwed! Make plans I don't intend to follow through on with friends - Oddly, my friends are very understanding when I do that to them... bet we probably should quit doing that. Make obsessive chore lists - Well you can make them for me, and I'll make snarky comments about each chore... hmmm, that might be fun.
rotflmao...Toe-Knee...you are sooooooooo funny! You say the things I think...but am much too much of a good girl to say them out loud.......much..... :) heehee!
Awww... It didn't keep the bullet formatting... that's no good.
THANK YOU for fixing the spelling error!! I was gonna write to you about it... seeing it repeated over and over and over... argh!
[this is good]
lol......great list. love the Mormon Boys.
Keep doing all the other things... especially harass mormon boys - that's hilarious... BUT get that lump checked. NOW. I have had one and had it removed... and if they can do it early they make less damage and you get to keep your own tits!
Also, if it is a bad one, your survival chances are higher the earlier you catch it.
I know you want to close your eyes and hope it goes away, but it doesn't work that way. Don't let another week go past!
MissS, please get that lump checked. Thank you

Sexually harassing Mormon boys sounds fun! I'll have to try that some time! :)
"Sexually harass Mormon boys on bikes"

...Miss Scotch, I would like you to join me when I do the slow drive by when the I come across the cute mormon boys. I have been known to wolf whistle at them and ask them if they would like a ride...if you know what I mean.

Also, please to be having the bumpage checked.
[this is good]

I always enjoy reading your lists like this. It always makes me think that I need to make one too.

Bite the skin on the side of my nails

I was actually doing that when I read it. LOL

Sexually harass Mormon boys on bikes

As if we all don't get the wild urge to do this. Poor things (said in a voice that totally betrays I'd love to be there one time when you do it.)

another lump nag - do IT!! DO IT !!! I lost a good friend that way.
CHECK IT !

Sexually harass Mormon boys on bikes = Awesome.

I live in a heavily Mormoned area. Usually when I'm walking and see the boys in white short sleeved shirts and ties on bikes, my brain automatically shouts, "Ack! MORMONS!!"and immediately pick up my pace and try to get to a safe place as quickly as possible. This, however, may be my Plan B if they ever catch me out in the open.

I grind my teeth, too. Get a nightguard from the dentist. Sure, they are pricey, but they are worth it.

And I also shop at Ross. No shame in that at all!

[this is good]
Yay! Mormon boys! For me, it's the special undergarments that does it.

I'm also relieved to hear I'm not the only person who bites the skin off the sides of my fingernails. Everyone thinks I'm biting the fingernails, and I have to insist that I am not, and then they just look puzzled when I explain that it's the skin, see? The skin.

Scotch, I've been fixed. Hook up with me and throw those b-control pills out the window! I'll dress up as a cute Mormon boy if that's what it takes. (Where do you people live? I haven't seen these Mormons on bikes everyone is so hot over.)

Looks like polls show the lump must get checked.

Quit the coffee. That'll kill the teeth-grinding and skin-biting no-no's, too.
