Boredom is the trump card.

Rules: Once you've been tagged, you are supposed to write a note with 25 random things, facts, habits, or goals about you. At the end, choose 25 people to be tagged. You have to tag the person who tagged you. If I tagged you, it's because I want to know more about you.
(To do this, go to “notes” under tabs on your profile page, paste these instructions in the body of the note, type your 25 random things, tag 25 people (in the right hand corner of the app) then click publish.)
==========================
25. I've almost drowned three times and as a result have a phobia of water.
24. I'm paranoid about bees, wasps, and other irrational flying insects in general.
23. One of the best years of my life was being at Bungle in Leeds.
22. Whitney Houston was one of the first artists I ever listened to.
21. While I can control my fingers on a piano quite well, I am actually very clumsy with cups of coffee.
20. I enjoy going to Black Sheep on a Friday night because it perpetuates the myth I'll actually pull.
19. My musical taste isn't, as some think, limited to punk and rock. I also dabble in classical, jazz, blues, and ethnic music.
18. When I was 15, one of my cats practically clawed off one of my testicles.
17. When I was even younger, I rode my BMX bike straight into the only dustbin for miles at Carshalton Park. I fell head first into it and smelt of trash for about a week!
16. I blew up the cooker in my house.
15. When I was hungover in Leeds, I washed my car with a scouring pad.
14. I tried to win a scholarship back to prep school at age 5 but failed it because I didn't know who the sixth president of Russia was.
13. I'm secretly obsessed with House MD, even though it's not as good as it was.
12. While my mother gave birth to me, my dad was busy watching the ladies final at Wimbledon in another room.
11. My childhood TV viewing consisted of Rolf Harris, Pat Sharpe, Neil Buchanan, Bob Holness, Jon Fashanu, and David Bowie.
10. I think summer is truly the best season all year around.
9. I think I could have probably found a job in the music industry by now, if only I was born and had studied 20 years earlier. Shit.
8. I would probably vote Conservative. Sure, they're not perfect either but on balance they are almost certainly the lesser of two evils.
7. I dived into a skip when drunk to search for "treasure".
6. Having babies is the last thing on my mind - actual sex would be a good first step.
5. There are times when I wonder how people remain so hopeful and optimistic given all the negativity in the world.
4. I advocate atheism. Most international conflict in the last 200 years would be obliterated if there was no such thing as religion.
3. While I don't like my job, with virtually 3 million unemployed in the country I'm more or less stuck where I am.
2. Ultimately I'd like to write music for a living, as a solo pianist, in a band or for film.
1. I believe that money might not make you happy, but it might make being unhappy easier to bear.
