It's been way too long since we did any memery around here

And lesboprof wants to know all about me, and frankly with summer and all I'm kinda slow on the actual blogging. So what the hey.
Eight things about me (the rules are after the post, b/c I'm a rebel like that):
1. I'm trying to start knitting again in order to spend less time fucking around online. Plus knitting's more portable than teh internets.
2. I'm also trying to quit smoking. The funny thing is, I really don't want to smoke any more most of the time, but I keep doing it because I can't think of something else that:
3. I'm slightly annoyed with myself for being kinda anxious about hitting middle age. I'm seriously annoyed with myself for being much more anxious about starting to look middle aged. Which so far no one notices except me, but it's freaking me the fuck out. SO irritating.
4. I have high cholesterol! Who knew?
5. I seriously don't miss my professorial job. Which surprises me, but there it is.
6. I love planning things, but hate following through and doing them. Knitting is supposed to teach me to be more zen about that.
7. I generally only shower maybe 2-3 times a week, when my hair starts feeling greasy.
8. I preferred crawling to walking until I was 12 or 13. And I'll still crawl around the house with PK or the cat sometimes, but the wood floors are hell on the knees.
That's it. Okay, here are the rules for those of you who want to join in the memetasticness. I nominate---anyone who *doesn't* have 8 interesting things to say, because trying to think of 8 interesting things to say is good exercise for your brain.
Rules:
* I have to post these rules before I give you the facts.
* Each player starts with eight random facts/habits about themselves.
* People who are tagged need to write their own blog about their eight things and post these rules.
* At the end of your blog, you need to choose eight people to get tagged and list their names.
* Don’t forget to leave them a comment telling them they’re tagged, and to read your blog.

- provides a short break from whatever I'm doing (mostly websurfing) or a transition between one thing (websurfing) and another (making dinner);I'm wondering if knitting might be a good candidate, though it's a little iffy on that last criteria. But worth a try, anyhoo.
- is compatible with drinking soda/coffee/booze;
- is at least theoretically a reason for PK to stay the hell away from me for a little while;
- preferably requires/lets me sit outside, or at least forces me to move somewhere other than where the laptop is.
