Just this once

Dear Dave,

Jen over at Following the Road tagged me with a meme. I don't normally bother with these things but since she's my Official Internet Friend, I thought I'd give it a shot. It's about writing. Actual, on paper, writing.

How does this pen thing work again?

The Rules:
write the following
1) Your name/blog name.
2) Right-handed, left-handed, or ambidextrous?
3) Favorite letters to write.
4) Least favorite letters to write.
5) Write “The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog.”
6) Write the following words in capital letters:
- CRAB
- HUMOR
- KALEIDOSCOPE
- PAJAMAS
- GAZILLION
7) Write your favorite song lyric.
8) Tag people!
9) Any special note or picture.

The bit at the end says,'When I write fast, it looks like this!' You should see 'very fast'...

Yours with a sore hand and inky fingers,

Ed.

Hooray! I'm so glad you did this!

Funny, you lean to the right AND the left. I have no idea what that says about you but I like it. You're eclectic, maybe? You do live half of your life pretending to be someone not quite you.

And you put a lot of blank space in your writing. I'm going to say that means you like to stretch out and relax. I don't know why, but your handwriting seems relaxed.

Gawd! I want the whole internet to do this. It is fascinating. Thanks for playing along!

No problem.

My writing had a very definite leftward lean when I was young. Now it just teeters from side to side like a drunk trying to walk a straight line on a boat in a storm.

I guess, now you mention it, some of those curly flicks do make it look like the letters are stretching out for a nap. Those 'y's are definitely off for a sunbathe...
