What to do when you have nothing to write about (or you're at least stuck in the sort of rut where you think you don't, but you actually do - Fail.)

So, recently I brought a game from work called 'The Art of Conversation.' It's basically a set of cards, each has 3 questions on it and you get together with your friends, family, significant other and take turns answering the questions. Some of them are really funny, some of them are a bit more deep and meaningful and some are just plain silly! But all in all it's a fun sort of activity. You can choose to score answers and have a bit more of a competitive run with it, but lately I've preferred to just sit down with the Boy and find out a little more about each other.

So, in that spirit, I've decided that on those days when I complain about having nothing to write about, when really I do but just can't find a way to put it into words, I'll answer some of these questions. It's better than letting everything here gather dust...

1. Which cartoon, or comic strip character, hits the spot with you?

I'm a sporadic comic strip reader. I'm one of those people who casually glances at the strips in the weekend papers, mainly because they're there and occassionally I'll get a decent laugh out of one or two of them, so it's really hard to say. I watch a ton of kids TV (shame, shame, shame...) namely because all these extra free-to-air TV channels we have here now seem to cater mostly to that market, with the exception of the midday and late night shifts, but there's no real characters there that 'speak' to me, as such. I think if I had to decide, I'd say Garfield. I've read a fair bit of garfield. For some reason at any one time there tend to be an awful lot of Garfield fans and/or casual readers in my life and there's something about that Cat that I can really tune into. He's sarcastic, so there's similar humour there and he loves his coffee, which is something I can totally share. And it's funny. The strips never seem to date....the jokes done 5 or 10 years ago are still just as funny now as they were when they were written.

2. The most spectacular natural phenomenon you have ever seen?
These questions are harder than they seem. I've seen some fairly magical storms over my 20 years so far. I like storms. Granted some of them can be fairly wild and scary and sometimes just generally unpleasant, but on the whole they're amazing. I've always felt that there was a lot of passion behind a storm. They're so unpredictable. They remind of an argument between lovers or some bout of fiery lovemaking. It goes from calm to madness to calm again, sometimes in hours, sometimes in minutes, but you feel the after affects for some time following it all.

3. Which trait would you find most annoying in a partner?
If there is one thing in the world I hate, then it's to be placated. I hate it when someone says something because they think thats what you want to hear or because they think it'll shut you up. Shamefully I've done it in the past, but men who do that and women for that matter, really piss me off. -.-
