These are the thoughts and observations of me — a woman of a certain age. (Oh, my, God, I'm 65!) I'm single. I'm successful enough (independent, self supporting). I live just outside Chicago, the best city in the world. I'm an aunt and a friend. I feel that voices like mine are rather underrepresented online or in print. So here I am. If my musings resonate with you, please visit my blog again sometime.

Manic Monday #12
If your personality had to be summed up as a sandwich, what kind of sandwich would you be? A burger, because it's always casual and a little messy, like me. And it can be simple and straightforward, or complicated by a lot of condiments, also like me.
If you knew that someone was dying, but they didn’t know, would you tell them the truth or deceive them about it? Wow! Of course this is a very serious situation (one I hope I never find myself in) and a lot would depend on individual circumstances (like if that someone has young ones that need to be planned for), but my first impulse is to say I'd deceive them. Death is ultimately between you and God, and I don't need to be involved.
Do you dress the same when you are depressed as you do when you are very happy? Yes. My uniform always begins with jeans, unless I have some professional thing to do or I'm going to the theater. Then it begins with dark slacks. So while my destination has an impact on my clothes, my mood never does. My choice of purse might, but not my mood.

Loved your answer to #1 :-)
ReplyDeleteGreat personality sandwich...love the description.
ReplyDeleteAh … I was ‘disturbingly profound’ when I did this one myself a while back. I’m not sure how I feel about it even now. Love your answer to #1 (and Sadie the ‘adoptable pet’ is very cute) … found your answers to 2 & 3 interesting. I shared at Small Reflections today.
ReplyDeleteHugs and blessings,
Nothing like a good burger I say ;)
ReplyDeleteI love black slacks for nights out.
