Friday Five: When is the Fourth Friday not the Last Friday?
I have been so tense recently I thought this might be a little therapeutic. Shel
Friday Five: When is the Fourth Friday not the Last Friday?
It's Friday afternoon, Eastern Time, and this is your faithful Songbird with a calendar-related Friday Five. Due to some confusion with our dates, I'm stepping in today, although I am usually here only on the 5th Friday, when there is such a thing.
Here are five things to ponder about dates. I hope you'll play!
1) Datebooks--how do you keep track of your appointments? Electronically? On paper? Month at a glance? Week at a glance?
I now use a Blackberry. It is wonderful and totally addictive and yes I am a techno geek!
2) When was the last time you forgot an important date?
I didn't so much as forget as I came close. I almost forgot to pick my son up to bring him to work this morning. I had some digestive difficulty last night as only a person post Bariatric surgery can have. I over slept in spit of phone calls and alerts. I did get him to work in time though.
3) When was the last time you went OUT on a date?
I don't really know if you could call it a date, but I was out with a good friend last night. I really hate dating and the awkwardness of it. Think 30 + years since I last truly dated. The dinner out and the talk afterwords was quite good, maybe as close to a date as I would ever get these days.
4) Name one accessory or item of clothing you love even though it is dated.
I have a pair of sneakers that are several years old and they are comfortable. I also have several favorite purses that are kind of out of style, but work for me still. I actually don't fit into a lot of my old cloths any more because I lost so much weight.
5) Dates--the fruit--can't live with 'em? Or can't live without 'em?
I can take them or leave them. They tend to be a little over sweet. I think that as a kid I remember liking them. I wouldn't go out of my way to eat a date though.
