Well, personally, I'm a pretty advance whiner :( sadly, not something to be proud of. Eg, I follow my mom all day round and talk about an issue over and over, again and again with displeasure as a main meal with a thick attitude sauce. I don't get my way by the way, but I sure got myself into a heap of troubles by getting myself on her bad side!! [ do not try!!]
I am working real hard to change but no bad habit [ that I know of] can be change overnight, and in my case, some good old years.

Another thing, I don't really appreciate cheese except in spaghetti [ I used the dictionary
for spelling.....well, I forgot if it was a double g or
double t ?!] , pasta, chowder and cheese cake. So other than the things I've listed, I would work my way not to get in any Cheesy's Way.
