And now, in early morning impulsiveness, a list of 50 things you may or may not know about me.

1. My middle name is Gray, which is the last name of my father's friend in Florida who is a gun enthusiast, a racist, and a taxidermist.
2. I have a heart murmur which means absolutely nothing unless the draft is reinstated.
3. I hate it when people say "you're so random. gosh, what randomness. what a random thing to do." I find it grammatically absurd. You draw numbers at random, you don't randomly do something. You impulsively do something, or you're spontaneous in your manner of decision-making, know what I'm sayin?
4. I ate beef tongue for dinner tonight.
5. I actually enjoy hunting and love firearms, despite being extremely liberal.
6. I had a kitten that died, and my mother put it in the freezer. She has since buried it, but my other, older cat died, and then my mother put it in the freezer. Every morning when I get frozen fruit or something out of the deep freeze, there is a dead cat in a shoebox next to the bananas.
7. Nearly half my warddrobe comes from second-hand clothing stores.
8. I know a shit lot about computers. I'm currently using one that I built, and I built the 3.3ghz machine my mother uses for her business. Ironically, computers piss me off and I'd never be comfortable with a computer-related career.
9. I have a switchblade in my pocket.
10. I have no fucking initiative whatsoever regarding academic pursuits, and I know it.
11. I often see incredibly tragic, serious things happen, and find some way to be optimistic, if not bitterly satirical, about them.
12. I mow a lawn owned by a woman who keeps turtles. On the lawn. I am horribly frightened that one day, I will paint the grass red with the insides of a turtle.
13. I love chocolate. If you ever get me any amount of chocolate, chances are it will not be around anymore in a day. It's kind of a problem I have.
14. Especially dark chocolate.
15. I really like Japanese anime, but am really, really picky about what I watch or read. Rightfully so. There's some scary shit out there.
16. I Goddamned love coffee.
17. I am addicted to working out. When I have nothing else to do, I pick up heavy things and put them down again until I am sore, and the idea of always getting stronger because of it is very satisfying to me.
18. I enjoy a good bagel.
19. I prefer the green kind.
20. I find it absurd when men complain about wearing ties. They are not uncomfortable; they are made of silk, idiots. If men were forced to wear ties made out of, say, rusty iron chains, then I would complain too. We should all try wearing high heels.
21. I'd love to dye my hair black sometime, but I want to become a model and don't want to change my look dramatically.
22. I want to become a model to make money for school, but I lack initiative to get started. I think I will get it done anyway as the idea is quite romantic.
23. I'm a little bit nearsighted.
24. I once fixed a huge cracked section of my driveway by pounding it apart with a sledgehammer and filling it in with concrete. It was fun, and I still wish I had more things to hit with a sledgehammer.
25. I like to write but never feel like I have anything to write about.
26. I like America.
27. Not too crazy about 51% of the inhabitants.
28. I think football is dumb. My entire extended family disagrees.
29. I really, really like gothic clothing and radically dyed hair. I do not like drugs, alcohol, and being needlessly depressed about the only life I've got.
30. I like wearing a suit and tie every once in awhile, just for the hell of it.
31. I make techno music by the use of a software studio I illegally downloaded and taught myself to use. I'm not very good.
32. I refuse to sing for people when they ask me to. But I got tenth in region choir.
33. If I had studied visual art more, I'd probably be good at it, as there's a lot of talent in my family. But I didn't. So fuck it.
34. I take great delight in having a deep voice, but am surprised when people mistake me for my father when I answer the phone. Occasionally I catch myself answering with a very Southern "Yello."
35. I would love to live in New York City amidst all the activity.
36. I am probably one of the few humans who does not aspire to marriage, having kids, or even living with anybody. I don't like the idea of being socially alone, but I truly cannot imagine myself co-existing with another person.
37. I think it's crazy that some people had no clue as to the fundamental differences between the presidential candidates.
38. When I look at the giant American flag in the choir room, I cannot think of anything else except that very flag being aflame. It has nothing to do with any political fury, it's just that I think fire is pretty, and I'd like to see some during fifth period.
39. I really don't know how to take compliments.
40. I hate telephones. I cannot stand talking to someone over a wire. It always seems as though I can't understand the person I'm talking to at all.
41. My grandparents don't know that I'm the most blasphemous atheist ever.
42. I don't see myself having another girlfriend until I get the hell out of Texas, as nice as it would be.
43. I really don't like standleaders.
44. I broke my left arm this one time and due to shortened tendons I can't move my fingers a certain way. It's kind of a bitch when I do pushups.
45. I enjoy walking around at about this time at night. It is ironic because I like the quiet absence of people, yet I'd like to have someone to walk with.
46. I wear steel-toed combat boots most of the time at school. So if you trip over my toe, you really don't need to apologize, because I didn't feel a thing, and I'm more worried about you.
47. I can eat pounds and pounds of sushi and weird shit like beef tongue burritos but I have never had food poisoning and the last time I got sick and threw up was at least six years ago.
48. I have never passed out in my life. I really can't imagine what it's like.
49. My room is a fucking mess. I clean it, like, once a year, and then in a few days it gets really dirty again. One of the reasons I can't live with people.
50. I have a hard time thinking of things to put on these surveys and lists.
