Who, me?




Thanks to Annie, our 'Tuesday 4' hostess with the most-ess!




How are you unique or different from your friends or family?  How typical are you?

Gosh, I don't think I'm particularly unique - or typical.   I'd love to have been more like my mother -- hardwired for kindness.  Oftentimes I stop to think, "What would mother do?"   No, I'm more like my father -- a hard worker, overly fond of good food and drink.  (LOL)

I think we each bring something unique to the table.  I'm finally comfortable in my own skin, and enjoy the company of a few like-minded people -- in small doses.  Have to admit, however, the last few years I've become more introspective; (and think) I feel things more acutely than most people.     



How do you spend your spare time?  Books, hobbies, visiting, tv, etc?

I waste entirely too much time in front of the television ..... but I don't regret a moment spent on-line!  I can't wait to schedule an eye exam of my own, so reading won't feel so tiresome.  Cross fingers!



What was high school like for you?

Ugh.  All I wanted was to fit in, but had no idea how.

Awkward and self-conscious, I moved about the school like an apparition -- observing, judging, rarely participating.  Not until I joined the choir, Olions (little theater) and found a mentor in my Journalism teacher did I begin to enjoy school.



This question has multiple parts:


Designer style or will any do?
I don't give a whit about designer bags - or even faux designer.  Just give me something with compartments, large enough for all my 'stuff.' 

Pajamas or nightgown?
Jammies

Shoes: Sturdy or pretty?
I left 'pretty' behind 3 years ago when I retired.

Home decor:  Classic, modern, farm-house style, traditional?
Eclectic traditional.   Comfortable and cozy.

Movies:  Feel good, drama, romance, action?
Given my druthers, I'd pick drama first, feel-good second (that includes comedy, right?).  Action, every once in a while.   Afraid I'm too old and cynical to sit through another season of Hallmark happily-ever-afters.

PS - More about drama.  Several of my all-time favorites include Schindler's List, Saving Private Ryan, Castaway, Bridges of Madison County.   I think because they make me hurt, to feel.  In a positive way, that is.  (Does that make any sense?)
