i wanna bex you up

I guess this is where you read about me.

So…here are some Bex-Facts for ya that you may or may not know:

1. I have a tendency to repeat myself. It gets embarrassing when I find that I’m retelling a story for the 100th time and everyone’s heard it. Oops!
2. I have a small short-term memory. I think I have ADD.
3. What was that?
4. I look hot in glasses, but I don’t need to wear them.  However, as my vision deteriorates (thanks to all those hours at the computer, I’m sure), I can’t wait to go to Lenscrafters!
5. I am currently a kindergarten teacher (read: glorified babysitter), but will probably give that up soon after I finish my master’s.

6. I don’t like to sleep in socks.
7. My favorite drinking game is flip-cup. I lack the coordination for beer-pong.
8. I can curl my tongue.
9. I still don’t know what I want to be when I grow up.
10. My favorite color is blue - any shade.
11. I don’t drink “girlie” drinks (read: fruity, sweet stuff - yuck).
12. I started the DaVinci Code and never finished it. Just didn’t appeal to my senses.
13. Favorite authors include: Kurt Vonnegut, Tom Robbins, Orson Scott Card, and J.D. Salinger
14. I went through a shoplifting phase in middle school. It’s revived itself the past few years as I have become a klepto who steals glasses from bars.
15. I can put my legs behind my head.
16. I cannot do a head or handstand. This is frustrating in yoga class.
17. I’m a bit of an insomniac.
18. I love anything pumpkin, sweet potato, butternut squash or carrot-flavored.  Basically anything orange.

19. Except oranges, I don’t care for them.

20. I wish Bill Murray were my best friend (a la Scarlett Johansen in Lost in Translation).

21. I’ve never kissed a girl.
22. I thought Forest Gump was an overrated, chinzy piece of crap.

23. I think physical comedy is hilarious. There’s nothing funnier than someone tripping and falling, even when it means I’m laughing at myself for doing just that.
24. My cats are named after Mets.

25. I am an obsessive-compulsive list maker. However, I believe I’m also a bit ADD, as I always lose my lists.
26. I majored in psychology and film in college.
27. I’ve lived 15 years in LA, 3 in Westchester, NY, 3 1/2 in the midwest, 6 months in Australia, and the last 3 + change in NYC.
28. I have a tattoo of the Southern Cross on my lower back on the right side. It has no religious connotation, but it’s on the Australian flag.
29. The only movie I have ever walked out of was Dogville.
30. I hate calling people.
31. I hate the phrase “partner in crime.” Lame.

32. I am double-jointed in my thumbs.
33. I am terribly disorganized and a wonderful procrastinator.
34. I’m also really messy. My room is a disaster. I’d say it’s because I don’t have the time, but it’s not true, my room is just not a priority when I’m home.
35. The one thing I’m really OCD about is time. I am obsessive about being on time. I get frustrated when people are late.

36. I prefer soda from a fountain.

37. I like anything with peanut butter in it.
38. I hate cilantro, but I love Mexican , Thai, and Indian food.
39. I’ve never broken any bones (knock on wood).
40. I’ve never gotten a speeding ticket (again, knock on wood).
41. Yeah, I say stupid things like “knock on wood.”
42. I also make a wish at 11:11 and when I have a fallen eyelash.

43. I like to lie to men in bars. It’s like creative storytelling.
44. I can’t ride a bike.

45. I’ve never had a surprise party thrown for me.

46. I make a kickass mix cd.
