Manic Monday

August 4th, 2008  | Categories: Memes

Using no more than 10 nouns, and ONLY nouns, describe yourself
Motorcyclist, Photographer, Writer, Father, Nerd, Gamer, Collector, Non-conformist, Traveler, Zombie-killer

If you owned your own store, what would you sell?
Used books. My mother once briefly owned a used book store and I enjoyed working there in my formative years. I’d love to own one of my own because it’s becoming harder to find a really GOOD used book store. Mind you I’d never make a profit because I’m reluctant to actually part with a book but it’s a fun concept to dream about.

If you were to name the most comforting thing for you to hold in your hands, what would it be?
Heh… I’m not going to name with the first thing that came to mind. Wow, this is a tough question. It’s so situational for me. There’s no single answer that really covers all situations. Bad day? Donut. Zombies rising from their graves? Glock Model 21. Stress relief? Throttle on my sport-bike. Feeling creative? My camera. Relaxation? A good book. Need a mood adjustment? An iPod.

Feeling manic on Monday? Join us!

    Zombie killer. :)

    Very good answer to #3.

    I had the coolest used bookstore I’d visit in Texas. It was underground! Rows & rows & rows of used books. The smell was incredible…

    Zombie killer! Love that! You’re a nerd, I’m a dork. :-)

    A used bookstore would be so fantastic. I’d read all day. Maybe I could have a book/camera store?

    Your answer to #3 is all-around fantastic.

    I could open a used bookstore in my house already. Must learn to part with these tomes that haven’t been touched in forever!

    Ah, to be a zombie killer! I ‘heart’ zombies!

    I loved your ten nouns…I need to remember to do this one..

    I love old used book stores. I can spend hours in them! There used to be some good ones where I lived in NY, I miss them..we don’t have many around here..it’s kinda sad really..

    Hyphens, huh. I seem to remember someone crying fowl when I used them, albeit more liberally than you. ;)
    Fun meme. I might borrow.
