1. I bite my bottom lip, often enough that I tend to tear/pick at skin and then it's sore.
2. I blink my eyes, like, a lot. Mostly because of my allergies and them being sensitive, sometimes because I just can't see, and other times because I seem to get a lot of gunk in them.
3. When I'm nervous, I tend to hold my hands up near my upper abdomen or rub the skin just below my neck. Which is the same place that first breaks out in hives when I eat something allergic, so I tend to rub over that area a lot in general.
4. When I can't think, I tap my fingers over and over, super fast (which tends to just make me more anxious lol). This is most notable when writing for work or fics; I'll tap-tap-tap at the keyboard as if that will help.
5. On the train, I always sit on the car so that my left side is against the wall. It started as a way to avoid the sun in the mornings but now it's more about posture and how I lean more comfortably that way.
6. I fidget a lot, especially with my legs. I love going to the movies but hate being stuck in the theaters because I'm never comfortable for more like 20 or so minutes.

I guarantee that any friend of mine in any corner of the world, fandom or IRL, long-term or newly fashioned, can fit any of these items. I have really great people in my life!

1. They are all super smart in their own way, and I love listening to them discuss the things they're great at (even work stories! Hearing someone's background fascinates me)
2. They're funny.
3. They're thoughtful and kind.
4. They have good tastes in movies and people that we can get excited about.
5. They're patient with me and others.
6. They look on the bright side of things when I need to.
7. They encourage me to be better.
8. They like me ♥

IDK about absolute things I like, but things I THINK are true about me that I like lol

1. I think I'm really pretty smart; maybe not as smart as people I see floating around some of these parts, but smarter than the average bear at least ;-)
2. I'm like a jack of all trades, master of none: I know a decent amount about a lot of things, including tons of engineering stuff for work
3. I'm funny/witty
4. I care about people and want to help them, sometimes to the extent of becoming co-dependent and hurting myself, but still ..
5. Even if it takes a while, I can put my foot down when things are pretty near bad and let go of certain toxic things in my life
6. I've grown up a lot over the last few years and am way more confident in some areas (most notably work and with my family)
7. When I'm excited about something, I really dive into it and learn a hell of a lot about it
8. I'm almost always open to help people (especially at work)
9. I can be really fun and playful at times
10. I'm almost kind of modest (or a debbie downer) and am having a hard time filling out this list
11. I'm creative and know how to string sentences together
