hey, I really liked this post. I love to read your blog. I share a lot of your thoughts and feelings. I wanted to ask you if it was okay to take this wonderful post and post the questions as a sort of questionaire on my blog for anyone who might want to answer them. Is that okay? Your questions & answers are beautiful, and I would love to answer them myself for sort of a theraputic/revealing look at myself. But, I would also like to learn about my friends by using this. Just let me know
I'm with pyrhonik........number 10 rocks........
great answers
hope you have a great weekend
I loved Zen & the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance, but I agree, it ain't no weekend breezer...
pyr: it's actually two tags... that's what the === in the middle is for... but yeah, it's tough that second one..
and thanks, it's the only thing i know to be true in the world.
lisa: hello and be welcome.
it is of course okay, this is just two memes i stuck together which somehow turned it into one really great meme... but since it's a meme you can just take it and do what thou wilt...
that said, i can change the post to officially tag you if you like?
either way? have fun.
kj: thanks babe.
you too... i'm going cottaging so it looks good...
john: i got two thirds of the way through and i couldn't take it anymore. i'm sure there's some wonderful metaphor hiding in the endless repetition but i couldn't take it anymore.
that said? i can so see why other folks would love it.
sass- you're apathetic to warmongering? does that mean you're neutral in opinion to what the US is currently doing in the Middle East? i have a feeling you're against this in general but maybe that line didn't come out the way you intended. or, maybe i'm just interpreting it wrong.
*clears throat*
*points out slight correction in post due to typing while tired*
*blushes*
peasant: apathetic? i didn't say that... i said antipathic *grin*
what i TYPED however had nothing in common with what i MEANT!
:) thanks for pointing it out.
heh. np.
You did your tag!
What is with those Zen books?? In college I had to read Zen and the Art of Archery ...for no apparent reason. Teensy book but took forever to get through and then I just kept trying to find the POINT and couldn't.
Kind of like Hemingway.
Man, I feel you on the papa love. Grandparents are so painfully missable.
Thanks for playing, most of it coulda been mine. Love you muchly!
peasant: i hate that kind of typo, its' the hardest to proof for.
jmai: i did!
i don't know but the motorcycle one is LONG and loooong if you know what i mean.
heh, darlin' we should never discuss literature with english majors but WORD.
yeah... my papa... i have a drawing of him on my wall.
kathi: *huggles*
that's what i thought of yours!
Dude, I WAS an English major. Graduated cum laude. Still have no idea what the whole Hemingway deal is about -s-
