Day 03 - A Habit You Wish You Didn't Have

<------ This.

I bite my nails and have since I can remember. It's annoying and gross. And I usually end up biting them so low that they hurt. People say, "So just stop." The problem is, I do it totally unconsciously. I zone out and I start biting. I get bored and I start biting. I get nervous and - you guessed it - I bite. Once I realize it, I make myself stop for the time being, which sometimes takes a lot longer than it should. Every time I try to quit, I seem to pick it back up again, albeit unconsciously.

I'm getting better at it though. I actually have nails right now.

Well, besides my left thumbnail and my left ring finger.

It's a work in progress.
