radlilimComment to this post, and I will list seven things I want you to talk about. They might make sense or they might be totally random. Then post that list, with your commentary, to your journal. Other people can get lists from you, and the meme merrily perpetuates itself.
1. wheelchairs - (how odd) I don't really have much to say about wheelchairs. I've never been in one, oh, except there used to be a really ancient one in the top floor of the old barn that used to be at my parent's house. It was made of wood and had solid metal wheels. The seat and back were made from woven reeds, in that hexagon pattern that was popular ages ago. Sometimes I'd roll around in what was the old hay loft of that barn. It's been ages since I thought of that wheelchair, or even the barn. I think it was torn down when I was 10ish? And actually the first thing I thought of when I read "wheelchair" was Macaully Culkin in Saved and his roller-skate costume.
2. puppies - Are cute and can be a mess. I can remember JP as a puppy, so small he could fit in both of my hands. And now he's 32 lbs and almost too big to pick up. I've had a few other dogs that we got as puppies, but that stage is so very short.
3. California - Looking forward to it! Both visiting in May for work (and getting to see two cousins) and mooching out there some day (not for years an years). It's one of the few areas of the US I've not been to.
4. cough drops - not a fan, unless they are the honey lemon ones
5. snow - Hate, hate it. I like to visit it when I go to see mom and dad. It's fun to cross country ski in. But after 34 years in a state that gets it every year, I'm ready to live someplace where it won't shore up.
6. books - My favorite hobby. I do with I could write, but I have to be happy with what skills I have and work on art. I'm actually very OK with the move to eBooks. While I do like reading books, I don't have that feeling of missing something by not having a physical book in my hands. I'm more than happy to get them all on my tablet.
7. vampires - Are not my favorite supernatural, that'd be shifters. But I have been in a lot of really great White Wolf games that focused on vamps, lots of great memories that I'd never trade away. So they do have good things associated with them. And I'm sure I know way too much trivia about them to be considered normal.
