I don’t have a lot of time today.  So I’m making this one really simple. 

This is the thread to check in with everyone and let them know you are here, you’re okay, you enjoy/hate life.  Whatever really.  It’s a getting to know you exercise for all members and its fun.  So do it.

And this month I want all questions answered in musical form. (and I'll answer first this time to give you an example)

 

Are you alive?  ...yes

How do you feel today?

Tell me something about yourself.

Favorite movie?

Favorite movie adapted from a book?

(to kill a mockingbird)

How are your relationships going? 

Are you a little let down by this month?

Are you alive

(no did this yet? I'm almost disappointed)

How do you feel today?

Tell me something about yourself:

Favorite movie:

Uhm. It's a tie. Deal with it.

Favorite movie based on a book:

Shut up this counts. Also it's not a song, but I love when he says "that's how much fuck fish."

How are your relationships going?

This just feels appropriate.

Are you a little let down by this month?

Ah shit, I forgot about The Exorcist! I love both the film and the book so much. I think Adaptation is cool though.

This took significantly longer than most of these threads. Thank you. It helped me ignore my boredom.

I am alive and refuse to do this on the basis of I forgot how. Not really, just lazy.

I feel fine.

My sleep schedule is all fucked up.

True Romance.

The Wizard of Oz.

What relationships?

I wasn't aware that a month could let me down.

Okay, now back to writing.....

Points are awarded to the Rex Manning video.  That answer was correct.

I don't think I'd ever seen the full-length music video - that was a treat.

Are you alive?  Yes, but would you believe me if I said anything else?

How do you feel today? More the "That's it, I quit," but the, "You're as good as dead," sort of works too. Lots of folks IRL are just dead to me now.

Tell me something about yourself.

Just popping in for a moment. I have three weeks before school starts again. Fortunately, I have a class that decided to have 10 novels on its reading list. I'm starting with Henry James, The Portrait of a Lady. Really interesting so far.
