SHARE YOUR WORLD – 2015 WEEK #39

It’s time for this week’s installment of SHARE YOUR WORLD – 2015 WEEK #39.

Which way does the toilet paper roll go? Over or under?

Over, of course. Every time I see this question asked, as it was recently on Facebook, everybody answers “over.” I’ve never seen one “under” answer yet.

If you were a crayon, what color would you be?

No question: This:

purple-crayon

You are comfortable doing nothing? For long stretches of time?

I’m afraid not. I tried fishing once and nearly went crazy sitting on a bluff holding a fishing pole and feeling as if I was doing absolutely nothing. All I could think was, “I could be reading.”

Rather: Would you accept $5,000 to shave your head or die it bright lime green and continue your normal activities while not explaining the reason for your haircut or color?

Oh, baby, here in Seattle Seahawks country I could die my hair lime green and never have to explain it to anyone. I’d fit right in. So I’d go with the green hair if it would net me $5,000.

Bonus question: What are you grateful for from last week, and what are you looking forward to in the week coming up?

Last week was a good one. I even got some writing done. In the week coming up we are traveling a bit east of the Cascade Mountains for a Road Scholar program about the Methow Valley. I’m looking forward to learning about the region’s history. We should also get to see some beautiful fall foliage.
