ever get the feeling that the people you think are the most important in your life aren't. this can get ugly. leave fathers and mothers behind.

list the top 5 most important people in your life. i dare you. they might not be who you would expect.

dot.

i'm sorry. maybe i didn't phrase it so you could wrap your little head around it.

your entire lifetime. the most meaningful people. and you only get to pick

5.

does that help.

so you don't have 5. i get that. meh is an expression that is commonly used by people who don't have their own voice. good luck on that.

Ranking people's importance to me. Fun, worthwhile, meaningful ... not so much.

Well, there's certainly no guarantee that it's reciprocal. It's possible that there are people among "my" top 5 that wouldn't give me a second thought.

again. just can't do it can you.

dot.

This is the lamest dot post evah, and it's been so long ....

here's a thought. name 5. if you can.

dot.

It's really none of your business.

So far we've had condescension, admonishment and a dare. Sadly, no awesome. 'Night everyone!

johh h. coach
mary. mentor
my grade school teacher who taught me about fables.
mr. van. a savior.

done.

OK, so what does this mean. Casual interpretation = the people you would think most important without giving it a lot of thought. I guess that would be

Boss
Significant other
Housemate
"best friend"
Business parnter
Person you have the most dealings with at the moment e.g. your accountant at tax time, your lawyer during divorce proceedings, you're barber if you've been trying to find time to get a haircut and it's becoming a crisis, your doctor when something's amiss.

And then the implication being that there are actually 5 others not on this list who you don't think much about, but with a little introspection should be able to identify as the real important people...

Let me think . . . . OK, think I've got it.

Boyd Tinsley
Jeff Coffin
Leshan Ross
Carter Beauford
Stefan Lessard

It was not easy to divulge that-- be gentle.

yep.

dot.

you know the good thing though is. now they have to think about it.

and they will. because if they don't. they're lying to themselves.

I agree, this is a LAME post.

And then you always try to provoke us into your silly mind games. Why is that?

Are you that upset that Katie is bailing on Tom?

Deal with it!
