Well, what you hear is not a test, it is actually
PromoGuy's Monday Mission 2.40
1. I just got back from a family reunion. It was ok, but I find those gatherings a little boring. Does your family ever have any reunions or annual get-togethers? Do you enjoy them? 2. A gal I work with told me that when her husband's drivers licsence comes up for renewal, she swipes it. She says he won't ever pose for pictures and that's the only way she can get a photo of him. Is that not creepy? Are you a picture person? Do you like taking photos, and having yours taken? 3. Time for show and tell: post a recent photo of yourself! 4. I have a cousin I always knew as Jay. As he got into college, he began to go by Greg. Turns out is name was Greg, Junior. Jay was short for Junior! Can't blame him for changing it. Did you ever have a nick-name growing up? How did it come about? Did you ever give anyone a nickname that stuck? 5. Since I don't have cable, a friend promised to send me a few episodes of "Trading Spaces," the show where folks redecorate someone else's home (and I'm still waaaaiiiting on that tape). But that got me to thinking about how I'd change my own house if I were able. And the room I'd do first would be the bathroom. If you could design the bathroom of your dreams, what would it be like? Spare no expense! 6. I've been trying to catch up on the early seasons of Buffy the Vampire Slayer in re-runs, though I've been told to buy the DVDs. But I think I'd rather borrow them if I could. But there are a few television shows I'd like to own on DVD (like "The Flash" and "Max Headroom"). What shows (if any) do you own in a video collection? What TV shows would you like to see collected on DVD or video? 7. I recently watched "Chitty-Chitty Bang-Bang" again, first time since I was little. It held up pretty well, unlike some movies that are better in your memory than they are when you see them again (like "E.T." good movie, but for me, better as a memory). Do you have any favorite movies from your childhood? Do you think you would still enjoy them if you watched them today? BONUS: Don't you know you're sleeping in a spotlight? Today's comment question: What relaxes you? file this under Monday MissionPosted by on October 7, 2002 @ October 7, 2002 10:41 AM 66 folks had something to say |
They're up in a moment! :) Sauna relaxes me.

And to relax I read, or nap, or vent on the phone to my best friend. Or sit outside and breathe.
Posted by: Annessa at October 7, 2002 11:24 AMgot mine up! What relaxes me - hmmm. My "G" rated answer would be: A hot bath, the radio playing quietly, and a good book. Don't get to do that nearly as much as I would like.

Posted by: michael at October 7, 2002 1:04 PMAll finished. As for the comment question... Just sitting outside on a nice, quiet day, listening to the wind blow through the trees. Did that this morning! Ahhhh...
Posted by: Jill at October 7, 2002 1:10 PMUp and at 'em. And as for relaxing, I find a cigarette and some nice chick rock does quite nicely.

Posted by: liz at October 7, 2002 1:31 PMMine are up,

Oh, and what relaxes me? As sick as this is to say, knitting. It's a mindless activity. Oh, and reading.
Posted by: Nicole at October 7, 2002 1:46 PMWhat relaxes me? Why, the Monday Mission of course! My reason to live! Long live Promo!
Posted by: Peter at October 7, 2002 1:47 PMI relax by reading a book. Then I screw myself up by reading it all night.
Posted by: Jennifer at October 7, 2002 1:48 PMThis is my first Monday Mission! Yippy!
Posted by: StpdUsrnm at October 7, 2002 2:17 PMMine are up! Lots of things relax me, starting with a good backrub and ending with putting my feet up and reading a book.
Posted by: Ealasaid at October 7, 2002 3:10 PMGetting my hair washed by someone else relaxes me. Coming up momentarily.

Posted by: laura at October 7, 2002 3:53 PMMine are up.
I relax by sipping Black Jack Daniels and listening to Cowboy Junkies.
Posted by: Martin at October 7, 2002 4:22 PMAll done.
I like taking a nap, a long hot shower, or reading to relax. Sometimes talking a walk is good too, depending on the weather.
Posted by: Theresa at October 7, 2002 4:35 PMMusic is the number one relaxant!
Posted by: Paul at October 7, 2002 5:19 PMMine are up.. pictures and all.
What relaxes you? - Golf, Jazz and a great night with my wife drinking champagne. I would say my son, but the people out there with kids would die from laughter.
My choice of music *really friggin loud* relaxes me. So does working out. If you're looking for theraputic ways to relax that aren't exactly constructive, throwing the cats, getting drunk, and being unruley works too.
Posted by: missy at October 7, 2002 5:56 PMListening to music, reading, editing photos, writing html, and writing relaxes me. My Monday Mission is up.
How do you guys get yours in so early? But congrats to promoguy. Good questions this week and it prompted me to take a couple of pics.
Relaxation is a variety of things, meditation, a glass of wine in the hot tub or just sitting and watching the ocean at sunrise/sunset.
Posted by: John at October 7, 2002 7:06 PMWhat I like about you, Promo, you really know how to dance...
Very little relaxes me. I like it that way. I like being on my toes at all times.
Posted by: Raspil at October 7, 2002 8:03 PMMine are up =)
Comment question: A long walk at the beach or at my favourite park relaxes me very muchly.
Posted by: Tara at October 7, 2002 8:08 PMWhat relaxes me...hmm...I'd say crossword puzzles and playing guitar.
Posted by: Erin at October 7, 2002 10:22 PMMine are up.. just in time.
My relaxation? Anything at the beach, a good bike ride or a bottle of red wine.
Posted by: michelle at October 7, 2002 10:22 PMfinally up!
whew, just made the deadline.
flyfishing relaxes me! perhaps it is the mountain air and tranquil water.
Did 'em. I can relax at the drop of a dime. Except at work. Then I'm always on edge.
Posted by: Marie at October 7, 2002 11:16 PMits late- but its done. what do i do to relax? sex.
Posted by: Bus girlie! at October 7, 2002 11:31 PMsorry sir, no time for the MM today, little blogging time and what I used it for was a big rant. I'll come back and do the questions later in the week perhaps!
Posted by: Desiree at October 8, 2002 12:57 AMOk... did it now... and what relaxes me? That'd be uh... wine, that will do it!! TV...movies, I get so relaxed I often fall asleep during movies (now throw in subtitles and that is a sure sleep aid!)
Posted by: Desiree at October 8, 2002 1:56 PMMine are up. Reading for a few hours always relaxes me.
Posted by: Lisa at October 8, 2002 8:53 PMOops! I keep forgetting to post here after I do the MM. It's been up since...well...monday!
Hehehe!
What relaxes me? Reading, hot baths, and talking with my friends.
Posted by: Bunny at October 9, 2002 1:12 AMI'm a Monday Mission virgin, mine's up!
Posted by: clrmehppygrl at October 9, 2002 12:41 PMJust now putting mine up. I love Max Headroom too!!! Oh and the Romantics rock. I like "She Got Everything" best.
Posted by: Katy Action at October 9, 2002 7:42 PMJust a very, very belated FYI ... the bridge in the first flying scene of Chitty Chitty Bang Bang? 15 minutes from where I used to live in Germany. Matter of fact, a lot of the film was filmed there in Rothenberg - so it's cool for me to watch it because I get to see all of my favorite places! (I must buy that film!)
