The Friday Five (thanks, ![[profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png)

1. What is your biggest pet peeve? Why?
Lack of awareness. I want to run out and WAKE PEOPLE UP. I sincerely believe most people live their lives on autopilot. That's okay if that's what they want to do, but it becomes not okay with me when that attitude causes problems for ME.
2. What irritating habits do you have?
I cough a lot, probably dating back to a bad illness my senior year of high school.
I whine.
When emotionally hurt, I withdraw.
3. Have you tried to change the irritating habits or just let them be?
I have tried to change the last one. It's slow going. Any other response to that situation requires either the confidence that I could fight and win or the trust that I won't have to, both of which are on the face of them pretty stupid for me to have.
4. What grosses you out more than anything else? Why?
Oh, probably fresh vomit. I get the urge to puke myself, and I really dislike puking. Plus the smell, the look, the texture when I clean it up... yuck on all counts.
5. What one thing can you never see yourself doing that other people do?
Spoiling a child.
And now I really ought to get back to work. Oh, lunch. Yes, should do that first.
