We Interrupt this Gloom to bring you a Meme…

 
Okay, okay, enough of the freakin’ depressing self-scrutiny. Let’s talk about something bright and cheerful, shall we?

 

I can’t think of anything.

 

But nevermind! Linda, over at the 2nd Cup of Coffee blog, has come up with just the thing. A cute little meme to supply some thoughtful fun, should you desire it! I had never visited Linda before, but I found her via Heth at the Laundry Pile, and methinks my blogroll just got longer.

 

Again.

 

I can’t figure out if the button picture is of donuts or apples. I’m really hoping it’s donuts, but either way they look a little disgusting to me. Food just shouldn’t come in those colors. If you want to do the meme, she has the html for the button over at her place. If you participate, don’t forget to let her know you enjoyed it!

 

 

 

1. When you go to Wowmart, what one thing do you get every single time, besides a funky-wheeled squeaking cart full of frustration?

 

That would be toilet paper. And bread. And bananas. And peanut butter crackers. Oops, guess that’s more than one.

 

2. What is something that people are currently “into” that you just don’t get or appreciate?

 

Vampires.

 

3. What is something that really hoists your sail that other people might feel “ho-hum” about?

 

This. and This.

 

4. Favorite song to sing in the shower or car?

 

Lately, it’s David Crowder’s newest “How He Loves Us”…I cannot wait until the new album comes out (the 22nd of this month)

 

 

 

5. A really great salad must have this ingredient:

 

AVOCADO (sorry for yelling)

 

6. Advice in a nutshell to new bloggers (one or two sentences):

 

Do it because you love it. Do it for you. Nothing else lasts.

 

7. What was the alternate name that your parents almost named you? Do you wish they had chosen it instead of the one they gave you?

 

I can’t remember the name they were going to give me…(mom? a little help?)…but I think I would have made a good Cornelius.

 

8. What in your life are you waiting for?

 

Thanksgiving. Anniversary. Christmas. Any possible beach trip not yet on the horizon. Celestial trumpets.

 

9. You get a package in the mail. What is it, and who is it from?

 

A random assortment of fun from my SIL in Texas, usually.

 

10. Today–what song represents you?

 

 

 

(except for the “born in Tennessee” part. And the “trouble since the day that I got here“. And the “broke the rules” part. I was kind of a straight arrow. But the rest is all true.)

 

11. What is one thing that blogging has taught you about yourself?

 

Too much introspection makes me morbid. Actually, Amy Carmichael said that once. But it’s still accurate.

 

12. How are you going to (or how did you) choose the clothes you’re wearing today? What do they say about you in general or specifically how you’re feeling today?

 

They were the first things my hands lit upon in the semi-darkness of my room. They say: I’m a free spirit, baby. I am a unique snowflake in a blizzard of conventionality!

 

or maybe It’s a miracle I’m even dressed today…

 

 

If you’d like to do the meme youself, feel free to copy and paste the original questions from here…many thanks to Linda from 2nd Cup of Coffee for coming up with a fun one!
