I have again managed to avoid posting a new journal for like two months. You can thank =termagen for giving me the motivation to update with this little tag thing. >_> So here we go.

The rules:
1. Post these rules
2. Each person tagged must post 8 random (hopefully interesting) facts about themselves
3. Tags should write a journal of these facts
4. At the end of the post 8 more bloggers are tagged and named
5. Go to their page and leave a comment telling them they're tagged.

1. My pets. Right now, I have... A dog, Magic. She just turned 11 and she's a German Shepard/beaglehoundthing mix. She's got really short legs, she's fat, and she will do pretty much anything for food. Then I've got a leopard gecko, Snickers, who I thought was a boy when I got her but she's really a girl. I've had her for like, 8 years or so. I've been meaning to take some pictures with her but she has this thing against people... Then I have my ferrets, Paperclip and Waffles. Paperclip is technically mine and Waffles is technically my sister's, but they're kind of community property in my house. Well, okay, not Paperclip because quite frankly she's a bitch. She bites EVERYONE except me, even like... my mom and sister who try to handle her all the time. She's really tiny and will be 4 in a few weeks, and Waffles will be 3. He's the bigger, fatter, stupider one. His tail is bald for some reason, which we thought was some fatal growth deficiency thing but it isn't.

2. Separate number for the fish because they are going to take awhile to talk about. I have five of them and they all live happily in the same tank. We've got Gonzo and Magneto, the mollies. I THINK they are both guys but I'm not entirely sure since they go at it sometimes, even though it LOOKS like they're both guys and neither has been pregnant yet. o_O Gonzo is a black molly and Magneto is a silver molly, and Magneto has this awesome fin that's HUGE... it's like, as tall as his body, so it's like a cape, and that's why we gave him a super hero name. The Postman, named for the weirdest and best Zelda character EVER, is a tetra of some kind. He literally sits at the bottom of the tank and just twitches. ALL DAY. He's done that since I got him which was like, months ago. He's insane, and his fins are all ragged and he has this constant look of surprise on his face. He is so cool. xD The Human Torch is this red sharkfish-looking thing. He's all red and I won him at a carnival, and to be honest I kind of expected him to die within a week, especially because I was going to be at band camp, but he didn't. He's still alive about three months later, and he's like, tripled in size. o_o I'd have to say the very dumb, very slow, very fat leader of the bunch is Louise. Louise is the everlasting fantail goldfish who's about the size of a golfball, plus fins. She's gotten stuck in, between and around EVERYTHING I've ever put in the tank; filters, bubble-maker things, plants, rocks, THERMOMETERS, pirate skulls... She's gotten rocks stuck in her mouth, once she just swam and did everything like a normal fish 'cept she did it all upside down for a day, then was perfectly fine later. Like, she seriously just swam upside down. Plus, she's indestructible. She's fallen a good five feet onto bathroom tile, flopped around on carpet, jumped into the sink and gotten stuck in the drain... None of which was my fault. If you ever want the coolest fish ever, take a fantail goldfish and remove one of it's chromosomes. There you have a Louise.

3. I write secrets on all the bills I get. Like, paper money, you know? Doesn't matter what value it is, I always try to put something on it. Of course I'm not going to tell you what any of the secrets were, but they're on a bill floating around somewhere in the US.

4. Things I have in my wallet! A $10 bill and a $5 bill, both written on of course. Then... two Regal Cinemas ticket coupon things, meaning two free movie tickets to whatever movie I want that my buddy Megan got me for my birthday back in July. I've been saving these suckers for a good movie to see at midnight, one for me and most likely one for the boyfriend. I wanted to see Across the Universe at midnight with them, and that was to be their purpose in life, but the damn theatres screwed me over. It was supposed to come out September 21 nationwide, but it didn't, and like the week after I stopped checking the times religiously to see if it was coming out, it came out. D: I found out the day it released, but seeing it at midnight would've meant the previous night... so I didn't get to go. That was like the fourth movie I've gotten screwed out of seeing at midnight. D: So ticked. So, now I think I'm gonna use these guys to see the Golden Compass in December. Hopefully I won't get screwed over again. Anyway, then I have a picture from Prom last year of me and Andrew, and one of his senior pictures. I've also got the two ticket stubs from the times I went to see Across the Universe at the non-midnight times. Once with Andrew and once with Megan and Alexa. Best movie on the face of the planet. As far as cards go, I have... a PetPerks card from Petsmart. I go there for all my fish supplies... Then I have my library card that I always lose, my now expired Cedar Point season pass, which has a really bad picture of me on it and I only used it like three times because I was so busy this summer. I've just discovered I have a Barnes and Noble giftcard for $25, which I totally forgot about. I was going to use it to buy the new PostSecret (www.postsecret.com, go there, seriously) book. Until I forgot about it. xD Um, then I have a Best Buy giftcard... for I dunno how much, which I might actually go use right now. My school ID is also in there. Another horribly bad picture. Last but not least, my temporary permit... You know, for like, driving? D: This thing frustrates me. I finished all my driver's ed, all my in cars, went to take my test, and... The in cars dude didn't fill out my paperwork right, so I couldn't take the test. Now we're waiting on them to mail me the right stuff so I can take my test. It's been like a week and it's not here yet, and they said it would be like three days, and I hate the license bureau. D:< So, that's what's in my wallet. By the way, I carry a wallet, not a purse.

5. I have a tendancy to be long-winded.

6. I can solve a Rubik's cube in under two minutes. I don't really like to brag about this, as I'm not sure if I would really consider it some sort of puzzle-doing genius or anything. I pretty much just break it down into steps and know where to go from each point... I mean, it obviously takes skill or some abstract way of thinking that most people can't grasp, because I've tried to teach a lot of my friends but most of them just don't get it... I've successfully taught two people out of the ten or twelve that I've attempted, and both are little bitches and went and took credit for my help, so I'm not teaching people anymore because they always come in the next day and try to show me up. >_> Anyway, so I bring my cube to school and when I get bored and don't have a book or something better to do, I'll sit there and solve it over and over again until I run out of free time or get bored with it. For some reason, solving it over and over again, even though it's pretty much the same thing, is fun for me in a weird sort of way... Pretty much it just keeps me just above boredom and it's kind of calming. o_O A lot of people will come up to me and ask me about it... or freak out when they see me solve it. I feel kind of like an attention whore when I do it in school but it's not like I'm deliberately standing up there saying, "hey look what I can do!" I guess a big brightly-colored plastic cube is just good at catching people's eye. xD Either way, I can solve it, but to me it's not really that big of a deal. There are people who can solve them in like 30 seconds and whatnot so my two minutes isn't really that impressive. I just do it for fun.

7. I'm afraid of spiders, open water, death and injuries and stuff, and people on stilts. Spiders I've always hated, but it's kind of funny. I think they're very interesting and fantastic creatures. Some are even cute or pretty to me, but I could never get close to one. Especially the big nasties. I can't sleep if they're in my room... once I saw one on my bed and I didn't see it die, so I wouldn't sleep in my room for two weeks. As far as open water goes, it's pretty much the same as spiders. I'm afraid of like... big oceans and places that are far away from land, because I always have this fear that I'm gonna fall off the boat or the plane is gonna crash or whatever and we're gonna be stranded out in the middle of the ocean with nothing around you and god knows what underneathe you. However, water is definitely my favorite element. xD I love love LOVE oceans and fish and everything, but I'm afraid of it unless it's a little pond or something. I also hate swimming. My emotions are odd. D: As far as death goes, I'm kind of paranoid. Since I've never been in the hospital or seriously hurt or diseased in any way, plus no one in my family that I was very close to was sick or died up until just this year, I'm kind of inexperienced with death, loss, sickness, injuries, etc. Last year I was dianosed with a heart condition type thing... it's something having to do with a prolapse, which means a couple of the valves in my heart don't close the way they're supposed to and that causes a small backwash of blood which sounds like a swishing noise when you listen to my heartbeat. It's called a heart murmur, but the reason behind it isn't as innocent as a heart murmur usually is. If it gets any worse it could be like, an actual heart defect. They don't think it will, and as long as I don't drink caffeine (speeds up my heart rate and irritates it, making it worse over time) I should be okay, and even if it does get worse it probably won't be that bad. Still, I'm really afraid that it will be something serious later on in life and I'll have to get insane-o open heart surgery and stuff, which of all things is the one surgery I would never want to get... I'd rather not get big nasty scars and have them crack my ribs open... it's just so gross. When I was little I was terrified of anything having to do with the heart, but I could tolerate anything else, so of course I have to have the heart problems. x_x There are some other personal reasons relating to my fear but I don't really wanna get into it. Then, my fear of guys on stilts... xD I have NO clue where this came from but I hate stilts with a burning passion. Any sort of freakishly long limbs are just so unnatural to me and therefor scare the crap out of me. xD it's not like, a serious "I'm going to die if I see someone on stilts" fear, but it's enough to make me pretty uncomfortable. It sucks when we go to fairs and stuff. x_x;

8. I'm an avid GaiaOnline user. My username is Fuzzy-sama if you wanna look me up.

Alrighty, well that was horribly long. xD Now I'm gonna tag...
