life as i know it…

What are you?

This is a question asked by a friend of mine to someone he had not seen in 6 years. I like this question, it is open-ended, non-threatening, and it will illicit varied responses. What am I?

I am…

(just got interrupted by a insurance salesman… slimy buggers)

ok, I am…

…living in Oklahoma.

…an aspiring author.

…an avid traveler.

…addicted to coffee and/or diet coke.

…happy (most days).

…a partner at a consulting firm.

…a reader.

…analytical in thought (not numbers… more ethereal).

…a blogger.

…an outdoorsman.

…a spiritual being.

…an apple endorser.

…a questioner.

…looking for love.

…not starving for love; rather looking for a delicacy that will compliment my life course.

…contemplative (most of the time).

…looking to laugh.

…a mile wide and an inch deep.

…a son.

…a brother.

…an uncle.

…a friend.

…and many more things.

I invite you to comment below and tell me – What are You?

    I like playing this game with Google. Try this one on for size: Type “sam is” into the search engine and see what comes up. http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=off&q=%22sam+is%22&btnG=Search

    Number 1 is kinda hilarious…

    I am a Christian, a woman, a lucky wife, an adoring aunt, an aspiring mother, a devoted sister, a loving daughter, a born editor, a word lover, a thinker, an encourager, sometimes melancholy, deeply appreciative that music exists, a classic middle child, a player of devil’s advocate, a hopeless romantic, an endlessly loyal friend, a blogger, a British Isles dweller trapped in an American’s body, undecided politically, a blogger.

    often aloof, but contemplating something

    a bit flighty, because i’m constantly asking what if…
