This week’s Monday Mission.
1. Have you ever just totally trashed something you were working on because it wasn’t going the way you wanted? What happened? Did you start over again? Was it better?
Oh, yeah. With writing mostly. All the time. :) It works wonders, because the first crack at a project lets me figure out what I don’t want to do with it. :)
2. Have you ever contacted an old friend out of the blue over the internet? How did it go? Have any old friends or lovers ever contacted you? Did it flatter you or freak you out?
I’ve had people do that, yeah. It’s usually kinda cool, but in one instance it just pissed me off. This gal I never particularly liked emailed me a bunch of “constructive criticism” about my site, years after the last time we’d spoken. Yeesh.
3. What is the most important thing that you have ever forgotten? Did it have any negative results? How did it all turn out?
I don’t remember. :)
4. Which of the “reality” television programs do you think you would have a chance at winning? Why? Would you ever actually consider signing up for one? Have you?
Gosh, I don’t even know of enough reality shows to have a clue. I’d be okay at Survivor and its clones, prolly – I’m pretty determined and was a High Adventure Girl Scout for years.
5. Do you allow commenting on your blog? Why? Have you ever considered removing/adding that function? What was one of the worst situations you’ve found yourself in due to blog comments?
Yep, I love comments. LOVE THEM! I’ve never had a problem with them (except once some folks left snarky comments because I commented on a post in someone else’s blog and they thought I was too much of a bleeding heart liberal to leave alone). I can take an awful lot of flaming without turning a hair. :)
6. Have you found any cool shareware/freeware applications/scripts/tools recently? Yeah? Tell me more!
Nope. Nothing recently.
7. I’ve mentioned it here before, but one of my favorite terms I’ve heard a Minster use was when he refereed to a “pet sin.” Which is when you live your life right for the most part, but you have this one secret thing, this one bad thing that you do that is wrong for you to do, that you won’t give up, even though you know you should (and sometime criticize others for doing). Now I am not asking to know what it is, but do you have a “pet sin?” When did it start? Are you trying to give it up, or are you just reconciled to the fact that you will always have it? Would anyone think less of you if they knew about it?
Hm. I don’t actually do anything majorly wrong. I’ve got the occasional bad habit, so if that counts, yeah. I try not to criticize others for things I do myself, though.
