Me in a nutshell
A writing challenge for: Kween_of_the_Queens blogring
ME, IN A NUTSHELL
The object:
Write a synopsis of YOU! If you were to go on the internet and decide to look over the dating sites there, what would you put in your profile?
Never mind that most of us are married! So am I! But just imagine for a moment that you aren’t, and are looking. What would you say about yourself? Your interests? A description of yourself ? Would you be brutally honest? Or playfully vague? Go ahead and write whatever you want! There are absolutely no boundaries for this challenge, except that I am requesting that you post a picture (not necessarily of yourself either!) Make it totally serious, make it side splittingly funny, make it YOUR OWN!
“If you like Pina Coladas
And getting caught in the rain
If you’re not into yoga
If you have half a brain
If you’d like making love at midnight
In the dunes on the Cape
Then I’m the love that you’ve looked for
Write to me and escape.”Oh wait – that’s been done before. So…let’s see. If I were to post a personal ad what would it say?
If you like Pepsi and Brownies
and playing board games at night
If you’re not into Anger
And you brain is not light
If you like hiking and beaches
And reading a good book
We are made for each other
Call me for a look….
If you like dancing and laughing
And you’re not too extreme
If you can tolerate sarcasm
And like your pie with whipped cream
If you like all kinds of music
And you sing in the car
You’re the one that I married
I know that we will go far.
Again, feel free to play along, just drop by the Kweens site and let her know you want to join in. Also go see what the other nutshells look like!
What would your personal ad say?
