TPBM
Well, I was. But I have managed to become fit in the last two years! I now do yoga every day and walk often.TPBM finds yoga intimidating.
Not so much intimidating as frustrating. When I try to do yoga with my friends, I find I can't do half of the things because I'm not as flexible as them.TPBM loves to watch old movies.
No but I once had a close call. Wasn't even playing, I was watching it.TPBM finds something very everyday(whistling/gum chewing/etc) highly annoying.
If I'm surrounded by a crowd of people it's very likely that several of them are going to get on my nerves in various ways TPBM is definitely not a morning person
Yes! So long as I'm able to slow down and enjoy it. If I have to cook a lot in a short time span, its likely I'll get annoyed.TPBM has worked out sometime this week.
I wish! I'm about 5'3".TPBM recruits tall people to get things from high places rather than find a ladder.
I don't normally care what height someone is if they're standing next to me. If he speaks in tongues or has rancid body odor, then I might change my mind about standing next to that person.TPBM has no problem leaving comments on their friends’ online pictures telling them how handsome/beautiful they are.
I have no problem at all because I don't do it.TPBM is satisfied with how tall they are because so long as their feet reach the earth all is well.
I can make do with my height enough to be content.TPBM has always wanted to try his or her hand at archery.
As a matter of fact, yes. Especially so after reading Zen in the Art of Archery and One Arrow, One Life: Zen, Archery, Enlightenment. TPBM prefers reading about being physically active than actually active.
Not really. I'm a fairly avid runner.TPBM has actually gone to get a haircut and asked the stylist to make their hair look like an actor's before.
I sure did,however i'm looking forward to it this year because this July i'll be old enough to work :D Oh the joys of having your own money!TPBM is hungry
No, I am doing yoga instead. Well, thinking about doing yoga.TPBM watches a lot of TV on their computer now.
If by just came home, you mean two hours ago, yes. But more accurately, I just showered.TPBM hates it when authors/directors keep a series going until it runs to the ground, rather than allowing for closure at the end of the last installment and starting anew.
There's a term I like to use for those instances: "life support", as in that's what the book series or show is on and vitals are not looking good. So yes, I agree with that sentiment.When setting a goal, TPBM uses “I am” statements instead of “I will be”.
Yes,yes I do it makes a goal really seem like a goal (i don't know if i'm making any sense)TPBM has brothers
I have an older brother named James. He's two years older, in fact.TPBM wants to take a nap every time they hear the Native American surname Goodblanket.
Even though I woke up earlier than usual, I'm not really that tired. It's weird, because I'm tired when I wake up late and active when I wake up early.TPBM wonders why Starbucks clerks always botch their customers’ names (I’ve been called Erickson and Jarrison by them before).
As a matter of fact, I just had a lovely turkey dinner with white meat, brown gravy, and green vegetables. White, brown, and green: the colors of a scrumptious dinner! :)TPBM can’t make it through listening to “Slip Away” by David Arkenstone and Charlee Brooks without having their heart break.
I just listened to it and its certainly beautiful.TPBM sometimes lets calls go to voicemail if they don't recognize the caller number.
Seeing as how my cell phone is only on when I need a ride somewhere, most of my calls do indeed go to voicemail regardless of who the calls are from.TPBM once used the word “donut” or “donut-hole” as an affectionate nickname for someone, whether it was a human or an animal.
There are only a few alcoholic drinks that I actually enjoy and they're of the fruit-flavored variety. So yes, I prefer that to inhaling toxic smoke.If TPBM is a woman, she prefers to be called Ms. instead of Mrs. or Miss.
Well, seeing as I'm only 17, that's pretty much all I get called.TPBM has no qualms borrowing another person's clothes to attend a fancy event.
I don't attend a lot of fancy events, so I have no need for a tux (which nobody in my family has anyways).TPBM is hungry for glazed donuts.
Love the movies! Haven't gotten around to the books yet which is annoying. I hate seeing the films first.TPBM spends a lot of time on goodreads.
Good Reads is where all the magic happens, so yes, I do spend a lot of time here. The prompts for my short stories come from Good Reads. I've also made a lot of friends here. TPBM doesn’t understand why being called “corn-fed” is a compliment. What’s so special about eating corn?
I do, sort of. My 'singing' is not singing, not rap, and best not heard outside the shower.TPBM finds their head filled with creative thoughts while showering.
I had the flu a few weeks ago and I'm over it now. I had a schizophrenic attack at the same time I had the flu and I'm over that as well. TPBM has at least one character in their stories named Corey, either as a male or female.
Now that you've mentioned bed, I think I'll take a short nap before I read this week's "Time Lapse" stories. Later, taters!TPBM is a night owl.
I tried to sing "A Warrior's Call" by Volbeat today, but I couldn't get Michael Poulsen's voice down perfectly. He's a huge Elvis fan, so he's got a deep register.TPBM dislikes pineapples.
