What types of situations bring out the worst in you? Oddly enough, computers. I get easily impatient and frustrated, and I'm worst when a computer does not perform like I think it should. I also resent all the changes - all for the worse - the systems and programs over time. They have become more complicated rather than easier.

What types of situations bring out the best in you? Taking time off to visit places or people I enjoy. Weird answer but I feel more relaxed and friendlier.



Bonus Questions:
What are some live events happening in your community this holiday season? Do you plan to attend any of them? Numerous. Went to a holiday party organized by the blues association I belong to, and attended a Christmas play. We would have partaken of more it if it wasn't for the ice storms paralyzing the city.

Just for Fun:
Yesterday ylisa7 asked what is the physical thing you like least about yourself. I will ask the opposite question: What do you like most about your looks? Hmmm... My eyes, I guess.

What types of situations bring out the worst in you? One thing that just makes me bat crap crazy is people who talk in movie theaters. I am that person who is not above saying something to the offenders. I don't understand why you would come to a movie only to sit there and chit chat during it. Drives me nuts.

What types of situations bring out the best in you?When strangers go out of their way to be nice or helpful to others. It just warms my heart and shows me that not all of the human race are jerks.

Bonus Questions:
What are some live events happening in your community this holiday season?Our downtown area does a sleigh ride, a holiday craft fair and has live music in the square. Do you plan to attend any of them?most likely no.

Just for Fun:
Yesterday ylisa7 asked what is the physical thing you like least about yourself. I will ask the opposite question: What do you like most about your looks?I have really good skin. Never was one to have acne and I haven't ever had wrinkles (knock on wood). I lucked out.

Last night I was wrapping gifts and feeling like the world’s biggest klutz, dropping things, getting tape stuck on all the wrong things and cutting the wrapping paper way too large or too small. Some things bring out the worst in me, and wrapping gifts is one of them. I agree about wrapping presents. I think I failed "tape" in kindergarten. Thank goodness for pretty gift bags!

What types of situations bring out the worst in you? I also don't do well in high pressure situations and usually run around in circles swearing.

What types of situations bring out the best in you? Peacefulness.

Bonus Questions:
What are some live events happening in your community this holiday season? Free movies @ the movie theater (which is owned by a local non-profit). Lots of bazaars and "cookie walks", all over now, I think. And a multi-church choir concert on the banks of the Missouri on Christmas Eve. Do you plan to attend any of them? Have done. Concert depends on weather.

Just for Fun:
Yesterday ylisa7 asked what is the physical thing you like least about yourself. I will ask the opposite question: What do you like most about your looks? I keep telling you all that I have extremely cute toes.

Thanks, Bay. So COLD here! Weset a record last night.

Today’s Questions:
What types of situations bring out the worst in you?
As mentioned before, I'm hopeless at gift-wrapping. Any situation that is high-stress brings out the worst in me, especially if I feel rushed. I make mistakes that I wouldn't make if I were relaxed and calm.
What types of situations bring out the best in you?
If I feel I can help someone, it brings out my generous side.
Bonus Questions:
What are some live events happening in your community this holiday season? Do you plan to attend any of them?
There's a Sing Along Messiah that sounds like a lot of fun and also the annual Nutcracker Ballet. I am not planning to attend any events, though.
