Friday 5 - On (a different) deck

 

1. If everyone carried personal cards (instead of business cards), what would you put on the line just beneath your name, where job titles usually go?
   
   Why would I give someone who has a personal relationship with me a card?
   So if I ever will get new cards (I still have some from the heart organisation I worked for):
   Veteran psychologist and chairwoman of VECAREM.
   Lecturer doctor-patient relationships.
   
   
2. What’s your favorite card game?
   
   None. I don't like playing cards.
   I have cards, but I don't consider The Tarot a game.
   
   
3. How confidently and competently do you shuffle a deck of cards?
   
   I learned it in the past from my two uncles, who used to play poker at their house. So when I stayed there I learned the whole thing, including shuffling.
   But now with the neuropathy... maybe I lost the ability somewhat, because I can't feel well enough what I am doing.
   On the other hand: I have a strong motoric memory.
   
   
4. To whom did you last send a non-holiday, non-birthday greeting card?
   
   No idea.
   But I got a lot of cards to wish me well, after breaking y ankles.
   
   
5. When did you last jot something down on an index card?
   
   Not too long ago. When I still ran the organisation to support parents of deceased babies and those with high risk pregnancies, I used index cards to file things. I thought that best considering the privacy of those people.
   I stopped the organisation a few years ago.
