1. What is your biggest pet peeve? Why?
Willful ignorance. I can understand not knowing something if you've never researched it, but ignoring facts when they are presented to you on a silver platter? Saying "I don't care about the truth, I prefer my opinions."? The infuriates me no end.
2. What irritating habits do you have?
I can be a know-it-all, and am really fussy about being on time. I do interrupt people, but I've been working really hard on that one.
3. Have you tried to change the irritating habits or just let them be?
Once a behavior has been identified as irritating, I try to change it. There is a limit that I reach where my desire to accommodate rams against my enjoyment of my self-identity. Keeping that balance is one of the harder things in my life.
4. What grosses you out more than anything else? Why?
Watching needles enter my flesh. You'd think after being a cancer patient for seven years that I would have gotten used to it, but no, I can't look when I get a blood draw or an IV punch.
5. What one thing can you never see yourself doing that other people do?
Very hard to say. One thing I've learned is that under the right circumstances, you can be called on to do almost anything in life.

MP3 Madness
WinAmp just went from Peter Gabriel's Family Snapshot to The Escape Club's Wild, Wild West.
Which begins with a gun shot. The previous song is about a sniper, and has the final line: "I shoot into the light."
Sometimes, serendipity just messes with your mind.
