About Me

I like it when you sit next to a middle-aged businessman on a plane, and you don't talk to them at all (but you notice when they order two neat little airplane bottles of gin before the beverage service even begins), and out of boredom you both watch The Notebook (or whatever equivalent movie), and then you both cry like six year old girls through the whole movie two feet from each other, and you both notice, but neither of you acknowledges it. Then without exchanging a word you get off the plane and never see each other again. I like that. Is that weird?

I do not like it when you're making yourself a peanut butter and jelly sandwich and you have to dig deep in the jar to get the peanut butter out, and your knuckles get peanut butter on them from the rim of the jar. I don't like that at all.
