Better Now, with Post Malone

Welcome to Saturday: 9. What we've committed to our readers is that we will post 9 questions every Saturday. Sometimes the post will have a theme, and at other times the questions will be totally unrelated. Those weeks we do "random questions," so-to-speak. We encourage you to visit other participants posts and leave a comment. Because we don't have any rules, it is your choice. We hate rules. We love to answer the questions, however, and here is today's questions!

1) In this song, Post Malone tries to assure his ex that he's better now ... but he's not. He's still hurting. Have you recently told someone you were fine when you weren't?

 I do this a lot of the time.  No sense spreading the worries....

2) He and his girl were so close he introduced her to his extended family, and now his aunts and uncles wonder where she's gone. Have you remained close to an ex's friends/family?  Oddly, I never had an Ex. I've been a very lucky Gal in that, because the rest of the family has plenty enough.

 

3) He sings that he never meant to let her down. What about you? Have you recently encountered anything -- big or small -- that didn't live up to your expectations?  OMGosh do you want the whole list?  Most of mine concern things over which I have no control, and can only observe and try to fit together into a whole. They aren't little things, but huge things.  When too many Humans act like the greedy chimps that the evolved from, it's gets me down.

4) Post recently announced he will soon become a father for the first time. Do you know anyone who is currently expecting a baby?  No

5) Before making it big as a musician, he supported himself as a wedding DJ. Think back to the last wedding you attended. Did they have a live band or a DJ?  No, but the family did have a sweet guitar solo by the sister of the Groom. 

6) Not satisfied being a successful musician, Post has branched out and introduced his own rose wine, Maison No. 9. Will you replenish your beer/wine/spirits this weekend?  No we won't. DH, the only one that drinks it, usually gets his wine shipped (by the case) from a Winery.  I seldom drink any alcohol, though I like a toast at New Year's.  And I like NAB, non-alcoholic beer. 

 

7) Post Malone has more than 70 different tattoos. He designs them himself and is so into ink that he has tattooed his friends. Would you trust a friend or relative to do your body art (tattoo or piercing)? Or would you go to a licensed professional?  No, I  wouldn't do either... I actually have a niece who is a fabulous hairdresser/tattoo artist, and a hairdresser who runs her own shops.  I will not even get one from her.  When I was younger, I would have gotten a rose or something on my ankle, probably. maybe.. haha

 

8) In 2018, when this song was popular, Sears filed for bankruptcy. In the 1970s, Sears was known as the place "Where America Shops." As of 2021, there were only 23 Sears stores left. Did you ever shop at Sears, either at the store or through the catalog?  I loved Sears.  I used to shop there ALL the time. We bought everything from clothing to housewares, and appliances.  It makes me sad that they went down so far.. and I'm surprised that there are ANY Sears stores left ANYWHERE...

9) Random question: What's your favorite way to spend an evening at home alone?  Happily, I am not alone.  But if I were, I'd probably eat a pint of some fabulous ice cream and watch Netflix or Prime or an old move on tape or read a really exciting book. 

Thank you so much Sam!
