The PDLAM Game

PDLAM (pronounced Ped-Lam) stands for Please Don't Laugh at Me. It's also the title of a funny game created by Beth Moore, a dynamic Christian speaker and my very favorite Bible study leader. I played this game while on a retreat in South Carolina that involved Beth's speaking, and it is a riot. So today, I decided to play it with you, my gentle readers.

As I mentioned yesterday, I am completely different from most, if not all, 20-somethings I have ever met. I have many, many odd, funny PDLAMS, such as:

1. I hate cooked vegetables. It's true. I grew up in the South, home of fried okra, green beans, boiled carrots, and mashed potatoes, and yet, I willfully eschew this subgroup of vegetables. House salad, yes. Cooked peppers, zucchini, and other such vegetables in stir fry, yes. Creamed corn, no.
2. I would rather play Scrabble and Trivial Pursuit than sports. Of course, this might be because I have a mild form of CP that has made my coordination factor zilch, but still.
3. My TV diet consists of Touched by an Angel, Jeopardy, Hallmark films, and reruns of sitcoms like Full House or Family Matters, rather than MTV or American Idol or NCIS.
4. I would always much rather shop at a bookstore than a boutique.

So what about you, my gentle readers? Do you have any habit, like, or dislike that would make a good PDLAM? I promise not to laugh at you. Let's celebrate our quirks together. Who knows? Maybe one of them could become the germ of a story idea...

Until next time, I am,
