My original "Blast from the Past" post didn’t exactly follow the intent of the MeMe…instead of choosing one or two posts, I went nuts. In an effort to respect your time (ha!) I printed out all the post titles, tacked them to a dart board, and then whatever one was hit for each category, I’m posting here (two, if the razor point embedded itself equidistant between the titles….or more likely drilled a new hole in my wall). For those of you who want to know me lots better, read my lame first attempt. For those who have a passing mild interest, this post is for YOU :).
FUNNY
People using the wrong words can make me laugh til I cry.
SERIOUS
A painful but redemptive part of my past (a must-read for any mom struggling with her children) and thoughts on the importance of forgiveness.
UGLY
Trying to shop with Rachel or explaining what I mean when I say Jesus is not my best friend.
ABOUT ME
Roller coasters and I have a hate-hate relationship, I’m an encourager, and I write poetry when I’m inspired to do so.
Well, it’s closer to what I was supposed to do :/.
As far as who I tagged, Mark already has his post up, because Jenny is a professional journalist, she’ll get to it when she gets to it;), and Willowtree is whining about awards again ignoring the tag on the coast with his darling wife, I think I’ll hit some others: fabuloso-est blog designer Susie, photography student by day and shoe fiend by night, Claudia, and a mostly gigglicious blogger, Chilihead. My coffee sister, Susan, has hers up today, too.
These were good! Especially with the Pomeranian Sauce!
ok…working on it…I started going back and totally confused myself…which is which and what about this one for that?
I KNOW, Claudia…why do you think I have such a miserable time with it????? Go ahead…link two or three. I might be the only one, but I’ll read ’em :).
Oh, Robin, these made me laugh, cry, think, and then laugh some more.
I’d never read the poem or the roller-coaster posts before. After reading about your fear of heights in “Man vs. Beast” I now have crystal clear insight on why some people just don’t like to ride roller coasters. I get it now. It makes perfect sense. But I’m still ROFL.
Susan, it always makes me think (of someone I read regularly), “Why did I miss THAT one?”. That’s the good thing about these “historical” memes, sometimes you get to go back to one you missed the first time around. VERY glad you got some laughs outta the bunch :).
I liked the other one, too.
Who says you can’t do what you want with a meme? You made it your own & I say, “you go, girl!”
Thank you Robin for sharing those wonderful links – I surely enjoyed them greatly…
Blessings on your Sunday and always…
