~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Today's Meme: Thursday Threesome:
Onesome: Characterized by impulse--Do you you consider yourself impulsive or do you tend to think everything through before you make a move?
No. I use to be able to get things on impulse... but I don't do it anymore.
Twosome: lacking rational basis--If you are impulsive, do you rationalize and justify your actions? Like, since that item you bought on a whim was on sale, you really saved money by buying it?
If we had planned to get a certain item next week, but we see it on sale today, we'd get it, but only if we were going to buy it anyway.
Threesome: or likely to change suddenly-- When you make up your mind, does it stay made up or do you tend to change your mind at the last minute? ...or do you waffle back and forth until you're forced to decide?
The only time I "waffle" is when I'm out with Kyle and we need to have lunch out... where to go?
~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ Yesterday was a good day. I was good about keeping my foot up... BORED to tears, 'cause I couldn't do anything... but I was bein' good ^_^ Today is a "home alone" day ;) We will try to be good ^_^
