One, because i think we're trained not to ask ourselves these questions. Two, because i'm tired, which screws with my emotions and especially my self-perception.<br /><br />My best effort, then:<br /><br />I'm very connected to my emotions, which is normally seen as a negative trait in men, but I really see it as my strength, because it gives me passion. And because of this, I have a big heart. When given the opportunity, i love people really well. This makes me a loyal friend and eventually will make me a great husband.<br /><br />(that feels awkward.)<br /><br />2) The Stand. The Road. Gilead.<br /><br />3) I will. Because that was a really fun night, and I want to record that memory.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00901333597476456521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787651.post-26453510777505057082009-09-18T16:37:28.457-05:002009-09-18T16:37:28.457-05:00Jaimie: I think what I'm getting at is, I want...Jaimie: I think what I'm getting at is, I want to be the type of heroic figure I've always looked up to. Someone who isn't perfect, but is pursuing righteousness, in a sense.

Otherwise, you're an internet access discriminator! Perish the thought!<br /><br />Here are my questions (plural! cause I'm ballsy like that!) for you:<br /><br />1. What one character trait do you like the most about yourself? No balancing it out with your perceived shortcomings, no humorous self-deprication -- this is your chance to out-and-out brag about your awesomeness.<br /><br />2. What three books should I read ASAP? <br /><br />3. This isn't a question, but I really think you should write even a short blurb about rocking the Starlight with some Neil Diamond goodness. Don't worry about perfection. Just plunk it out.<br /><br />That's all!Laura Bowernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787651.post-85804290914934285542009-09-18T16:08:32.092-05:002009-09-18T16:08:32.092-05:00No, that's a good answer. Sort of. Basically I...No, that's a good answer. Sort of. Basically I glean that you would put yourself into a world that would need a hero, and then you would be that hero and remain pure despite the crap going down around you. (In your world, it is possible to remain pure even while fighting the crap.)(Which makes me think of BSG, where they couldn't remain pure so much.) Yeah, that's a good answer.Jaimie Teekellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07845537262456320501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787651.post-42688345512921508992009-09-18T14:01:41.153-05:002009-09-18T14:01:41.153-05:00Trav: 31 flavors and then some.

Equal parts Roland Deschain (S.King's "Gunslinger"), Mal Reynolds, and Kal-El. Not a loner, though; but someone who's willing to stand alone when he has to. A man who's had to make the hard choices in terms of what's right and wrong, not just expedient, and chooses right without flinching. Someone who could look in a mirror and be proud of what he sees. Maybe I'm not answering your question well enough. I don't know.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00901333597476456521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787651.post-43238699036738250182009-09-18T13:20:46.323-05:002009-09-18T13:20:46.323-05:00No, no. My question was "How many?" Yo...No, no. My question was "How many?" You get to decide what I'm asking how many of, but I still want an answer.<br /><br />(And 'go nuts' is a lame answer, by the way :P )Travishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03089256151703857897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787651.post-72420175268764744652009-09-18T09:47:57.367-05:002009-09-18T09:47:57.367-05:00Trav: Go nuts.

You can still drop a few on me.<br /><br />James: that's a good question, and one I will ponder and reply to, today.<br /><br />You don't have to spare me embarrassing questions, we're all friends here.<br /><br />And if you had me guess your answer, I would have absolutely gone with your protagonist.Davehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00901333597476456521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787651.post-29295616753748928182009-09-17T22:53:17.023-05:002009-09-17T22:53:17.023-05:00Haha, I went with a sex change!

Hmmmmmm.<br /><br />The problem is, you are pretty honest most of the time.<br /><br />And now I'm just thinking of questions about me.<br /><br />If you could give yourself any identity, and I mean fantasy (go fantasy), what would it be? Original or something in a book, I don't care. To be really honest you'd probably have to think of something original. For me, I'd be my protagonist. I mean something like that.Jaimie Teekellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07845537262456320501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3787651.post-1889662829641999282009-09-17T20:13:41.056-05:002009-09-17T20:13:41.056-05:00How many?
