Name three things....
It's been a while since we've played this kind of game....So let's get this party started NOW!!!! :party: In each category, list three things that apply to you. I've got the blank version of this form at the bottom of this post, but I'll kick things off by giving you my answers here:


Name three things that bring you the most joy:

1- My dogs
2- Doing something nice for someone without them expecting it and with no expectation of repayment on my part
3- Really good sex (you know I had to say it...:P)

Name three things that make you angry:

1- Irrational fundies
2- GEORGE FUCKING W. BUSH
3- Mindless sheep that follow a leader no matter what

Name three places you love:

1- Atlanta, GA
2- The entire UK
3- New York City

Name three places you wish you'd never been:

1- Lexington, NC
2- Rural Arkansas
3- Denton, TX

Name three places you've lived:

1- Decatur, GA
2- Gastonia, NC
3- Chapel Hill, NC

Name three things you like about your physical characteristics:

1- My face
2- My eyes
3- My hair

Name three things you would change about your physical characteristics if you could:

1- My legs (but I accepted them as they are a long time ago :) )
2- The length of my arms (I have to buy shirts in the petite section because my arms are about an inch and a half shorter than the measurements most manufacturers use)
3- I'd love to have a flat tummy. It's not bad now, but genetically, there's no such thing as a perfectly flat tummy in my family.

Name three things you like about your personality:

1- I'm very easygoing and don't take myself too seriously.
2- I'm nonjudgmental.
3- I'm not afraid to try new things. ;)

Name three things you don't like about your personality:

1- Some people might consider me a pushover at times.
2- I tend to internalize problems instead of talking about them. I'm better about that than I used to be, but I'm still working on it.
3- I have a tendency to tune things out and focus on one issue at a time. I know other people can manage multiple tasks at any given time, but I need to finish one thing before I start another.

Name three things about yourself that might be considered "offbeat" by most people:

1- My sense of humor (nothing shocks me, and I find all kinds of stuff funny!)
2- My attitude toward sex. I think being THIS uninhibited scares a lot of people. I don't go around advertising my attitude, but if someone asks, I tell them. (NOTE: This does NOT apply to professional situations. :P) But I have earned my attitude and make no apologies for it. :)
3- My unconventional outlook on life. I've shocked my mother at times, but that's OK....

Name three things about yourself that might be considered "conventional" by most people:

1- My career (although it's far from conventional).
2- My marriage (although it's FAR from ideal).
3- My pets.

Name three things about yourself that have changed over the years (good or bad):

1- I learned that change can be good. When I was in high school, change was so scary that I fought against it. Over the years, I learned that change makes people stronger, and I deal with it now instead of trying to pretend it doesn't happen.
2- I learned to deal with problems instead of running away from them.
3- I learned to take care of my health. I'm not invincible, as my 20-year-old self would have had you believe, and I pay a lot more attention to things like exercise and food. I still indulge in my favorite foods, but not as often and not to the extent that I used to.
