day 2: what makes you uniquely you?

Ugh. Being honest here, I'm not loving this question. It seemed simple enough, but between Carter getting a cold and having teeth coming in, I let the day pass by, and I completely avoided sitting down here to write about myself. Am I falling off my own challenge on the second day? No.

Not this early. Maybe on day 3 or 4 I will. Kidding!

I tried thinking of different angles to take this post, to turn it into something cute instead of what it is - a personality-ish subject. But, no matter how you look at it, this question wants me to write about myself. Bleh.

Uniquely me doesn't want to nit pick at her features and write about herself. Uniquely me is obviously in a tiny bit of a cynical mood.

But here we go.

I'm ironic in that I worry myself sick about things like hair, makeup and clothes. And you know what? I hate that I'm so particular about all that because it exhausts me.

But I consider my personality super laid back. I almost never get worked up or stressed about anything. Unless, of course, it has to do with hair. makeup. clothes.

I'll buy an entire outfit specifically designed for a particular party.

But I don't care if someone doesn't call me back.

I wear a full face of makeup to get groceries.

But it didn't really bother me when Carter broke my only pair of glasses into three pieces.

If I don't have curls in my hair, I may as well be naked.

I love Spanish. Never had the chicken pox. My mind favors creativity, writing and art; it shivers at the sight of math and science. My voice is naturally soft, it's hard for me to yell.

My fingers and toes have probably had polish on them for every single minute of the past 15 years. I think better at night. I wish Carter and I were the same age so we could overcome this whole mother/son thing and just be BFFs.

And sometimes, I just have an urge to put bad, blurry pictures on my blog to boycott everyone's bloggy-photo-perfection-world that my writing's been living in.

ahh.
