Sunday Stealing




Okay, here we go. How are ya today? I'm OK I guess. My gut's giving me a little grief. But considering how awful my gastrointestinal tract has been so far this year, "a little grief" is a condition I'll gladly take.


Have you ever been so happy you felt invincible? Yes


Would you ever refer to something as ‘bitter sweet’? Yes


Is there a person in this world you don’t think you could ever figure out? Oh, God yes!

When was the last time you were freaked out? Watching an interview with Trump supporters in Texas. Person after person said, "He just says what we feel." REALLY? You feel it's OK to make fun of John McCain's time as a POW? Or to refer to Holy Communion as "my little wine and my little cracker?" Or to cruelly mock a disabled reporter? It would be one thing if they supported Trump in spite of this stuff. Instead it looks like they're voting for it because of it. I find this monumentally disturbing.


 
Do you learn from ‘every’ mistake you make? I wish I did, but I don't.


Do you sometimes think that you’re too nice? Yes. Especially for the Age of Trump.


Is there something you’re dying to tell someone? Yes.


Do you think you have a unique name? No.


Do you usually try to find the good in people? Yes.


Do you look back on embarrassing moments and laugh about them? Yes.


Have you ever laughed just to save yourself from humiliation? Yes.


What are you doing in 2 hours? Taking a shower and touching up my sorry-looking pedi.


What is the last thing you ate? A little applesauce. (Tummy trouble.)


Do you love your job? I love what I do. I don't necessarily love my job.


When is the last time you showered? Yesterday


Who is the last person you texted? My friend in the Keys.


When is the last time you were in a hospital? February 9. I saw a specialist for my tummy trouble. While I waited for my cab, I was impressed by the charming little gift shop. Sometimes these shops can be rather depressing affairs, but this one was lovingly cared for and the gifties were uplifting. I imagine the items in there brightened many a patient's day, and that made me happy.


The last time you went out to eat, what did you order?
 Coffee shop, Saturday morning, eggs benedict.


Do you tend to have a lot of those moments where you forget something that you wanted to say?
 Good goobies, yes!


How long have you known the last person you text messaged? 20+ years


Will this week be a good one? I hope so. I want it to be.


Anything happen to you within the past month that made you really happy? Of course. I admit that this year has been difficult thus far, but there's always joy to be found. For example, I saw a lovely little movie, Brooklyn, that I wouldn't have gone to see if not for its Oscar nominations. (I love the Oscars, and they're on tonight.)




Do you prefer to take showers at night or in the morning? Morning.


Have you been to New York City?  Yes. I'd go back in a heartbeat if it wasn't so expensive.

  1. I had a similar visit to a hospital gift shop while I was waiting to get picked up. It was like a Charming Charlie with cool candles.

    I can't even imagine the wars we would be entered into thanks to the possible 'idiot in chief'.

  6. We really live in disturbing times. Now we are getting agenda driven trash for candidates for lots of offices. And they are winning. I blame the educational system. Critically thinking is in the ashcan.
