Things I am good at and also not so good at.

Things I am good at:

• Napping
• Sleeping in general, really
• Reading a lot and being pretty fucking smart
• Watching Bones before Andy gets home from work
• and then imagining that every creak my fifty-year-old house makes is a murderer
• Imagining bizarre worst-case scenarios in my own life (see: creaking floor = murderer)
• but encouraging the crap out of everyone else
• Making delicious, fluffy, melt-in-your-mouth pancakes
• Putting fussy babies to sleep (my secret: talk to them, about nothing, for a long time in a monotone voice. Basically, I bore them to sleep.)

Things I am not so good at:

• Getting going on time in the morning
• Resisting the urge to make sure there's no murderer hiding behind the furnace in my creepy laundry room
• Dancing without looking like I have some sort of degenerative nerve condition 
• Being as forgiving with myself as I am with others
• Being patient (we got on the waiting list for a friend for Rooster, but we won't find out till Saturday if he's ours or not. It's killing me!)
• Listening to modern music without making disgusted faces a lot. Seriously, what is going on in the music world today? Why did The Juliana Theory have to break up? Is emo dead??)
• Pretending to give a shit that it's not cool to like emo in an unironic way. The Get Up Kids and Brand New 4ever, or something.
