She has given me a 'Stylish Blogger' award, even though we both know that any sense of style I have comes straight from her wardrobe. Once she and her love move to the other side of the world I will go back to being a scruffy mess.
The aim of the game is to write down seven things about myself, and then tag some other bloggers too. Since my blogging has fallen behind somewhat of late, I'm definitely going to struggle with the last bit, but here goes...
1. I tweet. A lot. http://twitter.com/StevieWise
I tweet so much that I sometimes think I should remove myself from Twitter, as I'm sure it will get me into trouble somewhere along the line! I do love Twitter, though. For me, it has become a place for gathering news, keeping in touch with people I've met through work and a place to have a lot of fun. I have made lots of new friends through Twitter, some of whom I've never 'met' in the traditional sense, but who I would consider to be friends in a weird and new sort of way that I'm still getting my head around. In short, get on Twitter.
2. I sing really loudly when I'm in the flat on my own.
My flatmates presumably don't know this about me, for obvious reasons. My neighbours, however, probably do.
3. I have a super-loud laugh.
I once laughed a couple out of a pub because they simply couldn't hack it. They were clearly miserable gits so I don't care, but the real problem with it is that my sense of humour is such that I find things hilariously funny and guffaw out loud where other people barely manage a brief titter. It's not necessarily the joke that makes me laugh, though. It's often the concept of humour itself that I enjoy. It's a wonderfully intelligent trait of the human race and my favourite thing about people.
4. I love gin.
I love nothing more than a lovely G&T on a summer's day. Or winter's. Or in Spring or Autumn too, really...
5. I have had more jobs than anyone I know.
I've worked since the age of 14, in every sector, doing everything imaginable and yet I've never met anyone who is worse at handling money than I am. I should sort that out.
6. I am mottephobic.
I am genuinely terrified of moths and butterflies. The one joke I never laugh at is the one when someone thinks it's funny to show me a photo of a moth. It isn't. I live my life in annual cycles of moth avoidance. For around three months of the year, I don't open windows. These also happen to be the three hottest months of the year, and I am well aware that they are rapidly approaching... I need help!
7. I seem to have developed a tendency to date men with weird jobs.
Either that, or it comes back to the 'finding everything funny' thing. Conquests incude:
The Barrister
'LG' (Lifeguard)
The Lee Evans Tribute Act (I shit you not...)
Plus an undisclosed (yet small) number of others...!
There are only two men I've been with that I haven't nicknamed according to their jobs, and now that I think about it, they're the two with whom I've felt most compatible. Note to self: avoid men with weird jobs.
