Wo/manly

For a girl, I certainly possess some "manly" traits.

If I'm watching a TV show that I enjoy, I like for a person to wait until the ads to tell me something important. This is largely because we don't have anything like TiVo and I don't record a show, so if someone is gabbing away at me during my show, I either don't hear what they're saying by trying to pay attention to the plot, OR I miss out on plot. Also it means that I have to sit through ads that are largely boring and wonder just what I missed because whatever was being said to me couldn't wait. It irritates Alan when I dismiss him for the TV. I only have a handful of shows I follow though, and it annoys me when I miss plot/character developments because someone talking.

I hate asking for directions. I will read a map and/or wander around until I find where it is I'm trying to get.

I can't belch, but I can fart. I'm not talking about quiet little farts (there are some of those), I'm talking about Harley Davidson taking off loud ass farts. And I find this very entertaining. You know you're family if I don't hesitate to let rip if you're in the same room as me. :P

There are some other things, I think, but that's what I can think of for now. And yet, I'm not a tomboy. I know lots of girls who are exclusively pants/shorts, no skirts or dresses, ever. Me, I mix and match, depending on my mood and the weather. I don't go all out on make-up, but that's because I have oily skin and breakout easily, like I really want to block up my pores every day to look "beautiful." Alan likes that I'm not a make-up kind of girl, for one thing I'm pretty enough without it, for another, it tastes bad and so he doesn't want to kiss me if I've got it on. He won't kiss me if I'm wearing sunscreen either but ain't no way I'm risking burn just for kisses.

Fin.
