you had me at, 'hello' [PromoGuy's Monday Mission 4.0]

monday mission

this is it, last chance... the final hoorah!
PromoGuy's callin' it quits, who can blame him!? it's lots of work maintaining a meme, I'm sure!

So i figured it apropos to poke my head up and and participate this one last time:

  1. In the last week, what happened that made you feel loved beyond your wildest dreams? [ from MM 1.0] *hours of thought... returning with an answer, finally* well, on friday I got IMs from Nela, imploring me to come up for turkey... Tommy then actually drove down to pick me up which was pretty spectacular from the get go. He must really like my girl! Later we went "sledding"... that is where I really got impressed. Despite my wimpy walk, and heaving breaths, they were encouraging, kind, and gracious with every step & effort. No mocking, taunting, or even complaining... most importantly, I was not abandoned/left behind. We worked together to get everyone down the hill (and the tube back up it) enough for all to be pleased with the outing. *shrug* it's just so oft that in such ventures I get completely set apart in that my inabilities dragging everyone down... *fighting back actual tears* it's just special to me!

  2. What was the last audio CD you paid money for? [ from MM 1.3] "I got Treats for ya audibles!"

  3. Has someone you know ever told you they had a terminal illness? What was it like for you when you found out. How did that change your relationship with them? [ from MM 2.45] not that I can recollect... the mere thought baffles me, and I honestly don't know how I might respond/react!

  4. Do you have an accent? Are there any phrases or words you say that tip folks that you aren't from around these parts? [ from MM 2.38] *small chuckle in slight embarrassment* in spanish I somehow acquired the most exaggeratedly intense Cordob�s accent... all super sing-songy.
    in english I oft use odd words, for lack of other outlets of creativity and individuality... and I assuredly pronounce some a tad diff'rent than most; a sort of potpourri that leaves many scrunching eyebrows and questioning me as to my roots...

  5. What's the difference between being a Father, and being a Daddy? [ from MM 3.25] I had a great thought process and answer for this, and suddenly it's not there anymore/I'm second guessing myself. I'm a girl, so I only have to worry about understanding the daughter perspective, as opposed to actually being one... but still.
    I know one big difference is I'd never call someone dad or daddy if all they were was what I like to refer to as "a sperm donor", no relationship... just blood relating us. yet there is such respect involved with the notion of father, that I don't want to dis it's valor; father denotes someone who is more than just a pal who plays with you and gives cool gifts... someone who you can look up to, your hero per se, someone who helps you develop into the intellectual being you are meant to be... *sighed shrug* I don't know!

  6. What is the most recent thing guilt has motivated you to do? [ from MM 2.50] *pondering* "guilt" mostly, I'd say 'step back'

  7. How do you feel about tips and tipping? Do you feel obligated to tip even if your service is bad because you know the servers don't get paid much? If you've ever relied on tips for your income, how do you feel when you don't get any? [This is a new one, had to throw in at least one more hot topic before I sign off] I know the tipping is an important factor in service... I'm a good tipper, and get good service at places I've been know the frequent [I can only assume] due to that very fact. However, I'm the first to leave a blatantly cut-throat tip when service was anything but cordial, appropriate, etc. you get all snippy with me, disappear never to be seen again, or major mess up without 'making it up'... good luck getting much out of me!

    BONUS: Will you still love me for the rest of my life? um, sure... I guess

anyone else find it strangely coincidental that these are all from MMs I didn't do at their time!? *shoulders lurch forward in shruggish motion*
