But in reading your lively and creative write-up of the iron, I hooted with laughter. I'm not a plotter and never have been. I'd say I'm closer to the shoe. Interesting that the shoe could learn something from the iron!<br /><br />Very clever, Donna! And I have fond memories of playing Monopoly at about the same age. Picking the token was definitely fun.

I know that my style differs depending on my project, and like regular old horoscopes, these have pieces that apply to most people.Donna Gambalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00317767593205769881noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144844961496270733.post-19027385933458829082013-01-26T18:51:59.824-05:002013-01-26T18:51:59.824-05:00OMG This is brilliant.

I haven't played monopoly for years but was drawn to the little boot on the wheel and that is the only one of all of them that describes my writing style perfectly. I used to love reading horoscopes, even though I know it's all vague stuff that could apply to anyone!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7144844961496270733.post-51993868430147317602013-01-26T13:31:15.641-05:002013-01-26T13:31:15.641-05:00This is such a cute idea!

I picked the Scottie Dog, which I am a little like (I do have a lot of critique partners) but once I read through them all I realized the one that really fits me is the iron. This was a really great idea and fun to read, thanks!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
