What did you used to do before you became this engrossed with Brokeback Mountain?  ???

Play games on the computer, watch TV, knit slippers!  ;)


What about you? What did you used to do?

I only have vague memories of life before BBM, but I think I worked more, read more, went out with friends (darts, NTN trivia), and played soccer.  The soccer was curtailed by a broken ankle, so I can't honestly blame that one on BBM. :)

As far as the computer and internet goes, before I got involved in the discussion of Brokeback Mountain specifically, what I  was doing before November 2005 is basically the same thing I am doing now.

Well, let's see...I did have more time, and I wasn't as depressed. I didn't spend as much time thinking about how great it is when guys love each other, although I knew it was wonderful when that happens.
Nightmares may be products of our subconscious, but dreams are magic windows through which we see our desired reality.

painted the house, cleaned the house, cut the grass, visited family and friends, went places, hiked and biked, browsed in bookstores, went to bed before midnight.

Now I spend every weekend and evening til the wee hours online in BbM message boards.

*eyes grow hazy*

Before BBM?  You mean there was such a time??  Hard to imagine it now...

I always had my housework up to date, I totally devoted myself to my taekwondo training, I did lots of drawing, lots of cooking, went to the gym lots, read a stack of books and had a reasonably empty soul.

Now, thanks to y'all (and this fabulous movie), its feels good to feel good again..  ;D
Chut up!

What about you? What did you used to do?

I have become so obsessed with Brokeback Mountain I  can hardly remember. I THINK I use to watch a lot of reality shows on TV. I still do, just not as much. I love the Amazing  Race.. and can you believe it... The Real World! I just wonder what my life would be like now WITHOUT Brokeback  Mountain. I can't even imagine.  ???

I wonder if anyone has already started the topic "What my life would be like right now if not for Brokeback Mountain". I know I have gone through some major life-changing events and transitions due in main part to this film.
