Comment to this message and I will assign you a letter of the alphabet. Then go to your journal and post a list of 10 words that begin with this letter and what they mean to you.
jenny_junipurr offered me a V as my assigned letter-- so here it is!
Ok, here are my V’s-
Variable-that would be for my emotions. I am officially manic-depressive (Bipolar II), under control (mostly) by the miracle of modern medicine. Most of the time I’m fairly even in my emotional stability, but there’s times that I have depressive episodes, and my manic episodes are mostly angry/aggressive as opposed to “highs”.
Vice-my main vice is smoking. It’s a bad habit that I picked up in high school. Been smoking on and off since then (I’m 44 now). Mostly I seem to smoke when I’m under stress or, it seems, to calm my emotions (see above!). I am going to attempt to quit again in the New Year if work stress allows me to.
Vision-as in being able to see. I have 20/40 vision in my right eye, 20/50 in the left and astigmatism in both. I should wear bifocals (I have them, just don’t like them) but continue to wear my regular glasses from my last prescription because I like them better.
Vocation-I have worked as a Pharmacy Technician for the past 12 years. I sort of fell into the job-the girl who was working there at the time was leaving to take another job (I was working in a different department at the time) and she asked if I wanted to work in the pharmacy. I said I’d like to, she told the boss, and I ended up hired. It was probably the best thing employment-wise that ever happened to me.
Verbose-You can’t (usually) tell from my posts, but I never shut up. Those of you that have met me, once I’ve warmed up to you, may have noticed this. Even if you’re not listening to me, I end up talking to myself. Mind you, I don’t expect answers from me, but at least there’s the buzz of sound when I’m talking.
Voice-this is not in regard to my being verbose. I sing. Quite well, if I may say so myself. Others say so also-I’ve sung in quite a few choirs-almost all the through school, in college, community choirs (I’m in one now). It’s one of my few outside activities, and gets my mind off of other things.
Vain-I can be pretty vain about my appearance when I feel like it. My hair is pretty much grey, and I dye it, most of the time in something resembling red.
Vacations-I love to take vacations. Been to Las Vegas, a cruise to Alaska, Churchill, Manitoba, in Canada to see the polar bears, California, Nashville several times-a couple of times to visit a friend who had moved down there, and twice to go to the Callahancon Nashville Annex.
Virginity-Lost somewhere. 24 years old. Inquire within for more information!
Voracious-As in appetite. Food is my main downfall, especially chocolate!
All done!
