I came across this meme not too long ago and parked it for a rainy day because I had many posts in the queue at the time, but I do get to the end of my thoughts sometimes, and here we are. Feel free to use and post.
Before we get to it, however, I would like to thank you for your comments and concern yesterday after the weird episode of the previous night. Although we don't know each other in person, your comments did mean something to me. I did have a good 7-hour sleep last night after just 2 hours on the wild night
It is odd synchronicity that I have a previously scheduled appointment with my urologist today. Aside from the regular agenda, perhaps he will have something to say about my UTI and about the episode in general and whether it might be related to my difficulty in urinating. It's always an issue, but that was a more difficult occasion than usual, and perhaps it could have triggered what happened to me. I don't know the answer, but perhaps he will.
Onto the meme. Feel free to also pick it up for a post if and when you need one.- Steak or Seafood: Steak but we don’t indulge often. We are a lowly chicken and burger couple.
- Italian or Chinese: Italian because it’s easier to cook, but I appreciate Chinese.
- Favourite soda: Diet Coke (and it's pop not soda)
- Chocolate or Vanilla: Duh. Chocolate.
- How many tattoos: 0
- Ever hit a deer: Yes, near home about 6 years ago.
- Favourite season: Autumn
- Broken bones: 0
- Beach or mountains: Mountains, but both
- Dogs or cats: Cats but dogs are okay.
- Early morning person: Yes, in later life. But I was more of a nighthawk when I was younger.
- Surgeries: 6 — tonsillectomy, hernia, 4 prostate surgeries which should have been 1, but they haven't worked well
- Favourite color: Red
- Have you ever flown in a plane? Yes, both big and small, but not often.
- Mild or hot salsa: Mild
- Waffles or pancakes: Pancakes, but I would usually order a more eggy breakfast. preferably with bacon if I were out.
- Favourite holiday: Christmas
- Smooth or crunchy peanut butter: Crunchy but the ‘just peanuts’ natural type
- Large or small curd cottage cheese: Um … no.
- Mayonnaise or Miracle Whip: Mayo
- Country or Rock: Country, but roots or folk mostly, and much gospel music lingers in my head from my churchy youth.
- Favourite Sport: Hockey to watch in winter. Tennis during Wimbledon and US Open.
- Like to dance: I enjoyed line dancing once upon a time.
- Have you been on a cruise: No
- Fear of heights: Yes, in my older years especially but always to some degree.
Thanks for sharing this meme. It's a great way to get to know someone a little better. I appreciate you opening up about what happened and I'm really glad to hear you got a good night's sleep. It's so true that even though we don't know each other in person, the connections we make in the blogging world can feel meaningful. I hope your appointment with the urologist provides some clarity and you get the answers you need. It sounds like you're being proactive about your health, which is the most important thing.
ReplyDeleteAC, your sense of humor was clearly not affected by the events of the previous night. This was a fun read and of course, always chocolate and mayo, yes to mountains and autumn and never cottage cheese, but I do prefer creamy peanut butter. And, have just returned from my first cruise and survived as well.
ReplyDeleteYou are so right in staring that bloggers may never meet in person, but still we come to know and care about one another through our posts.
I feel like you are a real friend, although we will probably never meet in person. I love your posts, always interesting.
ReplyDeleteI once was in a group (not therapy, more of a class) and one woman introduced herself saying she "over-shared" by telling to much about herself. I'd never heard the term, but sure could identify with it. Shucks, we bloggers have that option, and thus get to know each other better! If not, we just show photos and talk about the weather a lot. Hope you get more info with your urologist today!
ReplyDelete"too much" for my grammarian friends, misspelled!
DeleteI'm glad to see the word "pop" extends north beyond our borders. I can go only 60 or so miles to the east to the land of "soda". If I go far enough south, it is simply called "coke" even if you order a Pepsi.
ReplyDeleteI will use it this week, AC. There is a bond that develops among bloggers. This is what I like about it over regular social media. I'm really pleased to hear you had a good night. Maybe the urologist will have some answers for you.
