1. I hate nail polish. I'm like a cat with stuff on its paws. Shake, shake, gahh getitoff.
2. I am incredibly particular when it comes to skin care and cosmetics. I am fiercely ingredient loyal. If a moisturizer doesn't contain certain ingredients, I won't want to use it.
3. The only shades of lipstick I will wear are deep reds or pinks that mimic the natural flush of bitten or kissed lips. I don't understand lipsticks that are brown, purple, orange, or fuschia.
4. Gory horror movies scare me so badly I have nightmares for weeks. No matter what people tell me, I still refuse to watch certain films.
5. I am never without lip balm. I hate dry lips and get twitchy without balm (I find Lip Balm Anonymous insulting and stupid; lips need moisture, they cannot produce their own).
6. I have a severe problem with remembering and giving directions. My brain just cannot comprehend how to properly give directions on its own. Unless I travel to a place over and over, memorizing landmarks, I can't find my way anywhere without some sort of help.
7. I hate tickling in all forms. It aggravates my hypersensitivity. I find it torturous and painful, and I have been known to injure people who have tickled me or given me zerberts.
8. After discussing it with my physician/gynecologist a while back, I've learned that I actually have tocophobia -- fear of pregnancy and childbirth. It's mild, but it finally puts a few things in perspective.
