Letter meme from ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

This is how it works:
Comment on this entry and you'll receive a letter from me!
Write ten words beginning with that letter, including an explanation of what the word means to you and why.
My letter is "J"
1. Junk - What I like to find at flea markets - other people's junk can be fun to look at!
2. Jury - It was fullfilling my obligation to be on a jury that kept me in NJ on 9/11 and not in the former Deutsche Bank building next to the WTC.
3. Jersey - The state I live in. Good things happened here - meeting Mark and having Alan. It also "obligies" you to like Bruce (Springsteen) and Bon Jovi (or if over a certain age, Frank Sinatra!)
4. Jerk - My ex. Nothing else to say.
5. Jordan - the name of a good male friend of Mark's and my cousin's daughter. I can still hear my late grandmother saying "I hate the name" - to me, not to my cousin though!)
6. Jetty - the long path of docks that goes out into the water from a beach. It reminds me of my dad who loved to fish from them. I hope to teach Alan to salt water fish someday, since he won't have a chance to learn from my dad. Fishing runs in our family (along with the love of pickles!)
7. Jumble - the word puzzle my mom liked to do in the Daily news. Also a description of the contents of many of our closets at home.
8. Jail - I pass the Bergen County jail a lot on my way to my MILs (among other places). It's a place I hope never to visit or know anyone in!
9. Judiasm - my religion and culture. I'm more culturally Jewish than religous, but can't imagine being anything else.
10. Jazz - I think of big band jazz when I see this word. My dad loved big band jazz - he had some old 78's which alas my mom broke in a temper tantrum. I used to get stuck listening to big band music on WHLI-AM (the music of your life) in the car on the radio growing up on Long Island. I wonder if Alan will think the same of listening to classic rock on Q-104.
Anyone up for a challenege?

also #2...REALLY? scary. must have been very unsettling to say the absolute very least
#3, I had no idea! I always think you are from/in New York (you may have corrected me on that before even)
I have always wondered what a #6 is, like when I come across it in novels or something...I'm often just too darn lazy to Google words!
is a #7 like a word find? where the letters are all mixed up and you circle words? I love those!!
I can also appreciate some good #10, wish I knew more about the artists that I liked though, I can't really converse intelligently about any of the albums or instruments or anything....(heh, I said albums...what is it nowadays? just call each song a 'track'?!!)
