Friday Five: Take Me, Baby, or Leave Me

Over at RevGalBlogPals, Songbird asks: Whether it's new friends or new loves or new employers, what are five things people should know about you?

1. Although I've learned a lot about tact over the last couple of decades, I still tend to shoot my mouth off, and it gets enough results that I'm not inclined to quit doing so.

2. I love my dogs more than I love some people. If you don't understand that, somehow you'll learn to cope.

3. Foul language has a place in my life. I don't plan on kicking it out. When you are as verbal as I am, you need lots of words.

4. If you send me any form of written communication, know that somewhere in my mind I'm going through it with a red pen as I read it.

5. I have an unexplainable love for the United Methodist Church, cumbersome institution that it is, and I'm committed to helping it be less cumbersome and more about its mission.

Don't recall much foul language from you and we just spent 5 whole days together. It's place in your life is really very small. Word Verification: tramic - sounds like your morning cross between, trauma, drama, and tragic

Seriously, I can't picture the foul language, but I do fear the red pen!

I'm with you on the red pen (and the foul language too, I'm afraid).

Hi DogBlogger - I had a dog that would make me say #2 without a doubt. He died 5 years ago, but his pic is still on our mantle! Good for you! And your #5 inspired my #5 over at my place - let's work to make it better!

I'm another wielder of the imaginary red pen. Great play, and also I loved the interview with Tuesday.

RevAnne said...

Yup. I resemble these as well. And you know I'm with you on the dog thing!
