Associations

A friend posted this earlier this week: Comment on this post and I will give you 5 subjects/things I associate with you. Then post this in your blog and elaborate on the subjects given.

To which I responded: 'Ohhh, this sounds like fun!!"

So here it is my elaborations on the subjects Amanda associates with me:

1. "It makes a comeback"
Some simple words of wisdom given by me to Amanda in discussion at her lingerie shower regarding why lingerie is always fun. I think most women have had this experience as well. Lingerie was ridiculously fun at first. It gets old, all of the straps and laces and wire. But eventually does come back again. And the cycle continues. Sorry if that just made you blush, I should have warned you before I wrote that. Now you know, lingerie use has a cycle in our house.

2. Princess Lea
Ahh, a common thread between any woman who has married a man at all interested in science fiction, and therefore Star Wars. She is the woman we will all always compete with. The good news Amanda is that there are companies who sell costumes, and your hair is brown...

3. Antiques
I'm not really sure why Amanda picked this one. But I'm happy with it. I hope people associate me with beautiful, timeless treasures. I do love antiques, really anything old, not necessarily of any particular value. I just love things with a story, even if I have to make it up.
I think that's how I want to be remembered one day...beautiful, classic/timeless, a treasure with a story.

4. Totinos Pizza (for David)
To all the women who fed my husband before I came around I owe a sincere thank you. Even if it was just by stocking your freezer with his still favorite indulgence, .99 frozen pizzas. I owe you. So feel free to stop by, I can hook you up with a meal slightly more yummy than Totinos.

5. Late night girl talk with Jac:
Probably one of the more fun slightly serious conversations I've ever had with girl friends. I think that it's interesting how we become friends with people, don't you? It really only takes the slightest common thread to spark a wonderful friendship. Before you know it you're talking about all kinds of things! And it's funny too how many things we all have in common. Wouldn't it be interesting if we could sit down for late night chats with people we wouldn't necessarily seek out as friends? I think we'd all be a little more happy.

Okay, that was fun!!

Don't you want to do it?

Go ahead and post a comment, and I'll think of things/subjects that I associate with you. And just for kicks, what are some of your associations with me? (Don't worry I won't elaborate on any more of them...unless I need too!)
