Random! Though I disagree on one count:
My best friend often says random things, and often I can’t tell if she’s serious or not, because they seem far fetched and crazy most of the time (one of her most memorable lines: “Mozart is my soulmate!”) but she has proclaimed on more than one occasion that she could never marry a man who couldn’t juggle. And know her as I do… I think she’s serious. So, it stands to be said, that at least in her case, juggling on a first date might not be such a bad idea, hmm?
I have a similar list of ridiculous criteria for my ideal mate. Perhaps I should make a list sometime.
Either way, your friend sounds fun. One of my 18 resolutions this year was to learn to juggle.
A list? A LIST?! Oh, I’ve been on top of the list thing for years. I don’t know where mine has gotten to, though. Hmm. Maybe I shall have to make another.
Nice list!
agreed! nice list!
Um, is it bad that I’ve chosen to show off my juggling ability (or lack thereof) on at least five of these occasions…? 😀
