Yeah, I've always oscillated between 'weird' and 'excentric' - changed with age, obviously not as acceptable to call a woman weird if she's no longer a kid, go figure... /sarcasm

I'm good with recognizing facial expressions but it seems I can't control my own since most people ask why am I angry when I really am not. Is resting b**** face real?
