Rain down on me
How do you prefer to spend a rainy day?
If you could have a pocket-sized version of any animal, what would it be?
What is the most inconsiderate/insensitive thing anyone has ever said to you? Are you happy with how you responded? If you could change your response, what would you say?
Garfield or Odie?

Rainy days - While I'd LIKE to spend it laying on the couch playing computer games, reality prevents me from doing so. Sleeping late on rainy mornings is a great feeling, however.
I'd like a pocket sized grizzly bear.
The most inconsiderate thing anyone ever said to me was a slam against Brits in an email about oil prices. Totally ignorant of fact and utterly jingoistic. I responded hotly and then resigned from the organization. I would respond even HOTTER, with a link to Snopes.com showing her how full of crap she was and still would have resigned. Bigots bother me.
Garfield - I love lasagna and have little sympathy for the clueless.
If it's a summer rainy day, wandering around in it or weeding the garden can be nice. If it's cold and wintry out, I prefer being indoors, thinking about how nice it is to be indoors.
One notable exception was when I was in college and during the winter break drove with my parents to the beach. It was cold, and raining like a cow pissing on a flat rock, and I insisted on getting out in it and "communing with nature." I came out of that communion with a nasty cold and a ruined leather jacket.
Pocket tiger. (Oh. Wait. I more or less have four of those now.) As long as it would grow to life-size for snuggly naps.
Most insensitive comment:
"If I could have found someone else to play the role I would have cast them."
And I'm supposed to be pleased by this statement? The pisser is that he said variations on that particular theme three shows in a row. (It took me a while to figure out that he was a jerkface.)
Neither. Get Fuzzy
That is a fairly meaningless question for someone living in seattle.
Pocket size T Rex would be cool. Not going to put it in my pocket though.
I ran Cross Country in High School. Slow and steady that was me. We were in home room and some guy made a comment about that guy who always comes in last. He did not realise I was there. It was still thoughtless, he looked at me and I did not say anything, he looked embarassed enough for both of us. I wish I had said something about how at least I was participating and that that was the real point, or something that would have made each of us feel a little better about it.
Odie Garfield is mean
Rain: In bed, watching movies or sleeping.
Pocket-sized: Panda Bear! Or maybe an elephant.
Hurtful: The most recent occurrence was about 9 months ago. Someone I deeply cared for referred to my continued presence in their life and my unconditional love for them as being equivalent to sap -- as in, persistently sticking around and hard to get rid of. I think the person was trying to be funny, but the comment broke my heart. Coincidentally, it was the last time I saw that person. As for how I responded, I don't think I had an appropriate verbal response - I was too hurt. I suppose deciding to no longer be a part of that person’s life was the best response I could give.
Garfield. He's lazy, like I am. :)
Curled in bed reading with the cats
Weasel!!!!
Well not the most incosiderate ever, but yesterday I got back one of the wedding invitations I had sent out. I apparently had the address wrong. The postman or person at the address it went to wrote all over the envelope and on the back wrote "Return to Mrs. love struck" I don't know why that infuriated me, but it really did. And now I can't send the invite even if I get the correct address because it is destroyed. No way to respond to that one.
The thing that has happened a few times that upsets me is in a public place some stranger will ask when my baby is due or some other such comment assuming that I am pregnant when of course I am not. This upsets me a lot. It doesn't happen as much anymore, but really why should any stranger ask that of someone?
I use to like Garfield, but then he made 2 movies. I'm going to go with Hecliff or Marmaduke
Rainy Day - Cleaning sewage off of rats.
Pocket Size Animal - Poo-rats.
Inconsiderate - "If I wanted to hear from a big, dumb, stupid idiot dummy head I would have asked you." But I replied, "Well you did." So I'm pretty happy with that.
Garfield / Odie - Both! We are talking about slow roasting, right?

Rainy day? I like rainy days in the fall. When its cools and the leaves are turning and falling. But you have to go out in it, because it makes coming home to a warm sofa, a cup of hot tea or coffee, a fluffy blanket and nice movie or book all the better.
Pocket-sized version of any animal? I like Punky's Panda. My cat Boo sometimes reminds me of a pocket sized teddy bear.
Inconsiderate/insensitive thing? Sorry, not in the mood to dwell on the bad stuff tonight.
Garfield or Odie? I agree with Sallyacious . . . Get Fuzzy rocks. I strongly encourage everyone to visit the website to read the last two weeks worth of so. Bucky is arguing that England isn't real. It amused me greatly.
Sleep late, coffee while watching the rain out the back door, lay on the couch watching a movie or reading a book.
Pocket sized armadillo. then I'd always have a hacky-sack handy.
"I thought that you'd be happy for me.... thought we were friends"
My response? "We never really made it to the 'friend' stage. And friend don't do friends that way"
And, yes, I'm happy with it.
Garfield, but if we can pick others, I'd agree with the others on Get Fuzzy. Especially Bucky...or Sexy B as he's known to his friends.
The options were Garfield or Odie, children ... I know they both kind of suck, that was the point ... Get Fuzzy is in a class all by itself, my little minions ... no comparison ... now follow directions or no tequila for you, one year!!
;)
If it's Warm out- I like to be
out "playing" in the rain.
If it's Cold out- I like to be in bed/couch reading/playing, secrectly wishing it was warm enough to be out, "playing" in the rain. Outdoors! I love the Outdoors!
A bear of any brand. I love bears. They look so top heavy and warm n' fuzzy! I love top heavy warm n' fuzzy!
Recently, I've been told what a horrible, horrible man, father, husband I am. YES. It stung. Still does if I think about it. I'm not sure I said anything at all. I think I just shook my head while I picked up what was left of my manhood off the floor. And if I had to do over, I still don't know what I'd say that would be PC. (I mean, I know several things I'd like to have said.) Heartache! I love Heartache!!
The big fat orange lazy cat.
Ok, I can see why BOO chose not to dwell on such negative things.
Next Questions (with Tequilla) if you please, Punky! Questions! I love Questions!
(I can't get that damn McDonLds commercial outta my head, sorry)
No Tequila?!?!? Um Garfield! No Odie. Yeah, Odie! No wait, Garfield?!?! What's correct? I don't want to be punished.
No tequila, no TV makes Boo a bad kitty.

boo boo kitty fuck ... what is that from??? Ah! Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back. Odie is an idiot. And he's not even funny. At least Garfield is obnoxious and entertaining in a cynical way. Odie is just a goofy drooling googly eyed dog/rodent thing. Just sayin'
Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of "No beer, no TV make Homer go crazy," a Simpson's Halloween spoof of The Shining (or the Shinning, as it were).
It's raining here at this very moment. Lightly and warmly. Think I'll go weed the garden. Then maybe take a walk...
Choosing to not choose is still a choice. I have chosen to step outside your Garfield/Odie box. Punish away.
Hmm, so you are using Rush's argument: "If you choose not to decide, You still have made a choice."
Interesting ...
OK, OK ... tequila for everyone!
Damn. Punky says Rush and the first thing tha pops into my head is Limbaugh . . . then Viagra . . . then Limbaugh actually using Viagra . . . AAAAHHHHH!!!!!!!
My mental eye is now blind.
*scrubs Boo's mental eye and then slathers it with a magical salve balm potion thingie*
All better?
WooooooooooooT! Tequila! C'mon Boo, belly up to the bar.
When you have to make a choice and don't make it, that is in itself a choice.

What a smartie.

LOL! I nearly spit out my coffee, kaf!
