“If I Were” – Stolen From Cassie (And a Mousie Photo for Boo. :) (May 24, ’10)
If I were a month…
I would be April, the month of my birth. I can be very “taxing” at times, and stubborn like a ram. A bit rough around the edges, but when treated right I am sparkling and clear… pure diamond, like my gemstone.If I were a day…I would NOT be Wednesday, the day of my birth. “Full of woe” is an alien concept to me, no matter what life may throw at me. Make me Friday… full of anticipation for what’s soon to come.If I were a time of day…I would be dusk – quiet and still and serene but bubbling with life underneath.If I were a season…I would be Autumn, crisp and clear, yet mellow and reflective.If I were a direction…Forward, always forward.If I were a drink…I would be a good Merlot – rich and smooth and heavy with flavour. It goes well with cheese.
(Plus I’m full of it right now and it feels rather GOOD. Hehehe.)If I were a musical instrument…I would be a harp – gentle and melodic. It’s a rarely heard instrument, and I always get a kick out of it on those rare occasions I hear one played. It’s magical and fairy-like, and sings to me of Mother Earth.If I were a fruit...I’d be a peach. Soft and fuzzy if taken at the right time. And juicy. :)If I were a food…I would be a potato. They may seem boring when you first hold one and turn it over in your hand, but they hold so much promise and adaptability. I’m not very starchy though.If I were a celebrity…That’s never going to happen, lmao! Nor would I want it too… I’m not one for being in the spotlight. I like to blend into the background and watch what’s going on around me, un-noticed.If I were a color …Red and yellow and pink and green, orange and purple and blue…If I were a book…I would be a book of photography… wonderful images of flora and fauna, all taken by yours truly. One can dream, eh?
If I were a song…I would be ‘Perfect Place” by Voice of the Beehive… because it’s what I strive for every day of my life.“I will walk alongside the old man, who feels so alone as everyone rushes by him…”If I were a movie…I would be something inspirational, which is a bit weird as all my favourite movies tend to be things like “True Romance”, “Casino” etc… mobster-type movies. Go figure!If I were a flower…A sunflower, without question. Wide open and blooming with pure sunshine and warmth. I’ve got over two dozen “Teddy Bear” sunflowers popping up in flats in the greenhouse… midget sized (not quite like me, lol!), happy and fun and fuzzy round the edges. (Even when I’m not full of Merlot!)If I were a facial expression…I would be a smile. “Smile and the world smiles with you, frown and you frown alone”. And even if the saying that it only takes 17 muscles to smile but 43 to frown is wrong… it doesn’t hurt to be optimistic, and yes, smiling is contagious. It can make a stranger’s day and that’s always worthwhile. P.s… “Mousie”, “Mouse”, “Rodent Tater”, “Spudrat”, even Sue! They’re all good with me Cassie. And p.p.s… I’m going to break the rules and steal this for my blog too. I have a special “I steal things” tag that is feeling somewhat lonely. Hehehe.Oh! And p.p.p.s… Does this really look like an exploded alien holding its guts in?? That’s what Shane AND his dad AND his nephew tell me. I’ve got it stuck on the hood of my car. It’s my “Universal Child”. *Sigh…* :P
