The Association Meme thing
The rules are: Comment to this post and I will give you 5 subjects/things I associate you with. Then post this in your LJ and elaborate on the subjects given.
From Jean-Paul:
Ginger: My hair color. And the hair color of our child should JP ever decide to use my womb. Even though I'm 99% sure his dark hair will dominate.
Porn: You just HAD to put that one in there, didn't you? A while ago JP and I watched Star Wars porn, ate Chinese food, and made fun of it all. It was a hilarious afternoon. And now he makes fun of me for it.
Courage: That's sweet. I uh, courage is something I kind of took for granted growing up. I just had to have it. So I guess now what is considered courage is second nature to me. I think at times I could border on reckless but I keep those moments to myself.
Loyalty: I am fiercely loyal, and I'm quick to forgive usually. I'll drop everything to be there for someone if they need me. I'll defend my friends until I'm dead.
Fake bearskin rugs with heads: It is out to get me! JP joked about getting me a bearskin rug with a head, and I said no, but Isaac said he wanted one and now I have to deal with it. Thanks a lot JP. It's going to eat me in my sleep. It just is. The teeth and the eyes and it hates me!
From John:
Giving: That's the whole point of the Health Center.
Supportive: Thank you. I want to be able to be there for people as best I can. Even if I'm not sure how best to do that.
Thongs: I am never going to live this down! John went through my laundry (why DID you do that anyway?) and found one of my thongs (a really cute one) and was under the belief women only wore sexy underwear when they were with a guy they liked. So I wore it to prove him wrong. And then the Phonecall of Humiliation happened.
Tuesday Date Night: The thing that makes Tuesdays at work bearable! Every Tuesday night unless one of us is away, John and I have a date night, which can range from going out and doing stuff (I like the boxing idea!) or just sitting in and watching a movie.
Dog.: My dog does have a name. Tripod. It's an adorable name because he has three legs like a tripod. My dog ADORES John, and no one seems to know why. He's also quite fond of Tabby now.
From Lorna:
Forthright: I see no point in beating around the bush. I do sometimes, if it makes me incredibly uncomfortable to talk about, but for the most part I try to be open, honest, and a little bit blunt. People know where they stand with me, there's hardly any guesswork.
Processing: I try to think things through as best I can before I act on them. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't.
Ewan McGregor: Ah. Yes. My ultimate crush. I love him in just about everything he's been in, but in particular I'm fond of Trainspotting, Velvet Goldmine, and Star Wars (shut up!)
broken glass: My first thought is "this is what happens when I yell". But knowing Lorna there's probably a deeper meaning involved. Glass is beautiful, reflective. But it's broken. And it's sharp. You tread lightly when there's broken glass on the ground.
mouse ears: I still have a pair of ears from Disney with "Theresa" embroidered. Lorna went with me to get them, and they're sitting on my dresser in my room to this day. Well, only because they fell off the nail I had them hanging on.
From Tabby:
Giving: John said the same thing and then told me he wasn't talking specifically about the Health Center after reading my response. So I'll elaborate here. I would give the people I love the world if I could. I will always do everything I can for them. I'm smart, I refuse to get taken advantage of. But I trust the people I love. So I think that's okay.
Warm: That's so nice of you Tabby. I don't know how to talk more about it. I'm just a friendly person, I guess.
Princess Bride: My mun watched this the other day! I love this movie. And Tabby and I watched it together and swooned over Westley (how could you NOT?) and it was lots of fun. And Billy Crystal is so funny as Miracle Max.
Clover: Four leaf clover I'm assuming, not clover like the cigarretes? I'm Irish, I think that speaks for itself. Also I found a four leaf clover when I was in Ireland with Sally and Tabby. After searching for a half hour.
Lesbian Lovah: We took this sexual compatibility quiz (not just me and Tabby, it was going around) and it turns out we're compatible. And we're both awesome. So Tabby is my lesbian lovah, with an ah. Because I love her.
From Sally:
RENT: Sally took me to see Rent. It was my first broadway show and I was horribly confused. But it was a great show.
AA: AA saved my life. I'm not kidding. And I really should go back to a meeting soon. I need to make time to do that.
Loyal: JP said this too. I appreciate it. THank you.
Cassidy Health Center: My baby. We're expanding to create a treatment facility, which is why I've been such a workaholic lately.
Friend: Thank you, Sally. I hope I'm a good one.
From Paige:
Green: My favorite color. Looks great with my hair.
Pole dancin': A very fun time, even though my abs hurt for days afterwards. It takes a lot of strength to do that.
Reunion: I've had a lot of reunions in my life. It makes me so grateful.
Compassion: Thank you, Paige.
Ireland Endurance for ya as well: And thank you again. I have to endure. The one time I decided not to it almost destroyed me. Now I'm a firm believer that whatever doesn't kill me makes me stronger.
