See I've already waited too long...All my hope is gone.
Seven weird things for Sara. Very hard to come up with. So I went with seven weird things that I hate. Most of which you've probably heard me say before!!!
1. I hate the taste of water, and yes I do feel it has a very distinctive taste. I hate ALL water but I hate even more than usual Aquafina and Dasani and if they are the only choices, I will pass.
2. I don't particularly like being naked and I particularly hate sleeping naked. If I happen to have had sex with you (hahahahahaha, the degree of unlikeliness is hilarious), I will get up and put shorts & a t-shirt on rather than just fall asleep.
3. I hate retrieving voicemail messages. If you can text me or email me, you are far more likely to get a response.
4. I hate how newsprint makes your fingers dirty and I really hate it when trade paperbacks are printed so shabbily that they do as well.
5. I hate when people lie to me, or about me, or to my friends, or about my friends.
6. I hate doing T&Es at work so much that last year I wound up not getting reimbursed for over $300 because I "forgot" to do them for six months (and we only get reimbursed for the last 3 mos or 90 days). It always seems like I just did them yesterday!!
7.....Everything else I can think of right now is pretty person-specific so I'll just spend a few pleasant moments thinking about those people and how I hate them and leave it up to your imagination!!

Wow! I think I feel the same way about everything minus #6.
Thanks for your responses! Better late than never, I say! :)

hm. I'm not a big fan of water, either. I much prefer additives.

Yeah, I'm the same way about nakedness. And I also hate getting my voicemails.
Why is it so hard to come up with weird things? There needs to be a meme with seven fabulous things about yourself. I could write those all day. :)

I hope you're not thinking about me...
NO naked? I don't mind the naked, I just don't like being cold.

have you always hated the taste of water?

Ha! The hate theme is excellent. And I love the post title, of course.

It's like I wrote answers 2-6 myself. Funny. I hate voicemail so much, I usually let it get to about 7 or 8 messages before I listen to and delete all of them.

NPR had a thing on bottled water the other day - I heard that both Aquafina and Dasani are purified tap water from the city in which you buy them, thus saving Pepsi and Coke, respectively, the shipping cost. You ain't crazy - you especially don't like your local water.
