The Barn

Although I’m not participating in Jenni’s Blog Everyday in May Challenge, I love some of the prompts, so I thought I’d incorporate them here and there. The other day, the topic was: if you couldn’t answer with your job, how would you answer the question, ‘what do you do’?

I love this topic. So many people define themselves based on what they do for a living, so I think it’s great to step back and acknowledge everything else that makes you, you.

Here’s what I do:

• I take way too many pictures, usually of useless things, but not enough of important things.
• I bake and cook for the people I care for.
• I talk in weird accents quite often. Just ask my sister.
• I watch YouTube videos more often than TV.
• I’m constantly on the computer. Pretty sure my eyesight’s going thanks to this.
• I watch Gilmore Girls frequently.
• I go to Target at least 2-3 times a week.
• I sleep way too much.
• I organize anything that can be organized.
• I bookmark blogs like it’s my job.
• I daydream daily.
• I help people with tech stuff. Fixing my grandma’s phone and TV is my specialty.
• I eat french fries at every opportunity.
• I run around my house with my cat. He chases me… I’m not even kidding.
• I make lists that could rival Rory Gilmore’s.
• I laugh obnoxiously when I find something hilarious.
• I stumble over my words on the phone. And sometimes in person.
• I listen to albums on repeat if I love them.
• I have one speed for walking – fast. Same goes for talking.
• I constantly change my mind, mostly about frivolous things.

There you go — 20 things that I do, that aren’t in anyway related to my job. I could have kept going, but I figured I had to draw the line somewhere. See, I told you about my list making.
