1. I type almost as fast as I think, so it should theoretically be easier for me to type than write. I really don't know why it's not. I wish I could write fiction, I really do. My creativity is in other areas. I can make really nice collages...like with magazines and stuff. I should show you the picture of one I made out of two months worth of Entertainment Weeklys and a few comics I got from the paper in NYC. OH! I did write one story that's pretty good, I think. There's a link to it in an entry I made a few days ago.
2. I've never been able to get into reading fanfic...I read the stuff my friend Heidi (duckytears) writes, but that's different. And I did actually really enjoy one she wrote called "The Wolfram & Hart Annual Orgy", it's the funniest thing I've ever read. I need to find the link to that for you too. It doesn't have any more sex in it than you'd see in an episode, it's just funny in general. But other than that, it's (fanfic) just not something I've ever been particularly interested in, for some reason. I don't know why.
3. I wish I had autographs from meeting them :/ The only non-gymnast autographs I have are Calista Flockhart (I was OBSESSED with Ally McBeal) and Jane Krakowski (again with the Ally McBeal...). I have two from Calista, one smaller one and one 5x7 :) She addressed the envelope for the second one herself. She has really pretty handwriting. Well, and I have my autographed copy of Idina's CD, but that was a Christmas present. I REALLY want autographs from people from actually meeting everyone, but the only famous person I've ever met is the former governor of Washington. He stepped on my sister's foot.
Most of my friends are either a few years younger than me or a year or so older than me, but yeah...when I was a kid I could wrap adults around my little finger, so I hung out with them a lot. I'm an attention-whore. I'm really good at being in the background when I want to be (which is a lot of the time...I'm considered "the quiet one" at work) but if I'm talking, people are gonna LISTEN, dammit. And people my own age never listen to me. I agree that most 13-year-olds aren't particularly open-minded.
Yes, psychology...I promise not to pull a Walsh ;) I'm going to get my doctorate in child psychology, specializing in play therapy. I understand how little kids (mostly toddler's) minds work. It's so cool. My mom says I've been empathic since I was a baby. (that part's annoying, but we'll go into that later.) Anywho. Yay psychology and analyzing people :)
Crying cheers me up sometimes too. There are times when I just NEED to. I watched Patch Adams (I'd never seen it before) for the sole reason that I knew it'd make me cry my eyes out, and it did, and I felt SO much better. I can't cry at life, at things that happen to me. The only release I get for that is when I cry at TV and movies. I haven't read Bridge to Terebithia OR What Dreams May Come yet, but I need to! Dana's recommended Bridge to Terebithia to me like six times, but I haven't gotten around to it yet.
I didn't know at first that there was a commentary for Wild At Heart! Then I was going through ALL the special features, and found it, and I haven't watched it since without it. I couldn't handle the episode before the commentary, but now watching it without it I remember things they said in the commentary and it makes me laugh :) I adore them all!!
I haven't watched any of the commentaries in season 7 yet. I haven't even watched all the episodes in season 7 since I got the DVDs...I really oughta get around to that! I LOVE the Objects in Space commentary. It's my favorite episode of Firefly, 'cause River is my favorite character. I was hoping against hope that the commentary would be with Summer Glau, and was upset that it wasn't, until I heard Joss's commentary on it. I love that man, I really do.
