PromoGuy’s Monday Mission 3.08
1. Has anyone ever told you that you needed to lose weight or change something about yourself physically? Who told you and what impact did it have on your life? Your perception of yourself? I tell myself I should lose weight all the time. I’m too lazy to do anything about it, of course, except when you get a rude awakening like trying on a swim suit…I’ve been lucky. None of my friends, no coach or parent ever told me that I looked bad at my weight. And I run, so while it’s nice to have less weight to drag you when you sprint, muscles weigh more than fat. Go muscles.
2. Do enjoy the snow and cold weather? I do, when I can go out sledding…
3. Visualize the perfect winter evening. Are you alone or with someone? How does the evening start? How does it end, and everything in-between. Fireplace with someone to cuddle, after a day of sledding or skiing…hot chocolate. cabin in the woods. smiles and eskimo kisses. I have no idea how it would end. Hopefully happily.
4. I’ve noticed that people I work with, even no more than 6 feet away, would rather e-mail me a message than turn around and speak to me. Same goes for voice mail, I find I get more calls when I am away than when I am available to speak to someone. So many things that could be said face-to-face are now accomplished electronically. Do you think that technology has had
allowed relationships and human interaction to become less personal? Is this a good thing? Yes, we’re all less personal. But I saw a commercial the other day about how this guy could reach all these people by email or phone but his smile hasn’t lost a client yet. Sometimes you just gotta get out there and be there in person. Of course, I get really nervous when I have to be somewhere in person and for some reason I hate using the phone, so email is a nice safe haven for me…
5. One thing I’ve always wanted to learn is how to juggle. I’m pretty good with my hands, so I am sure I could do it. Yet, I’ve never made the commitment to sit down and learn how. Is there anything you’ve been meaning to learn, that you can learn, but haven’t? (or maybe you have?) *ahem* guitar? spanish and chinese. sewing.
6. On the other side of the coin, there is photography. As much as I’d like to, I will never be as great at it as others. And I am OK with that, still I wish I had the gifts that others have. What skills or talents have you wished that you possessed that you most likely never will? Are you content with that? Better web design skills. I saw the website of one of my college roommates yesterday, and she started off like me but ended up doing what I wanted to do. Sigh. Spilled milk I suppose. I just have to find better ways of combining my interests.
7. “AudioBlogs” are a twist on text blogs, where the blogger posts audio files instead of writing their entries. Not far behind the curve are VideoBlogs. While I’ve tinkered with Audio posts before, I think it excludes too many people and personally, I feel the written word has a deeper impact. What do you think of the concept of “AudioBlogs?” Would you like to hear the voice of your favorite bloggers occasionally? Would you rather listen to or read your favorite Blogs? It’s exciting to hear the voices of people you’ve only read about. I’d love to listen to them, but silly things like modems don’t even like streams of audio, so it’d be pretty hard for me to get any of them. I really have a pet peeve of sites that have midis or embedded mp3s in them, cause it slows down the computer something fierce. So while it’s nice to hear someone’s voice, until broadband is cheap, it will be impratical.
BONUS: How deep is your love? Well, it used to be pretty deep. Haven’t had anyone to try it out on in a while.
