RE: How Are You Doing? A little story on the power of words
I have a friend who will always answer some variation of "fine" when asked how they are, but when you know them long enough you know by the tone of the "fine" whether they're actually fine or just deflecting further questions XD Similarly I'll answer some variation of "good" or "fine" if things are fine and just respond "yes" if I'm not and either don't feel like talking about it at that point or haven't figured out how to articulate it yet, if people want to follow up they will, otherwise the confusion that answer generates leaves me enough time to run awaaaaaayyyyyyyyyyy XD
Hehe I like "different every hour" XD though if I were to use something like that I'd have to be truthful and say "mercurial" >_> LoL XD
I guess it's a "fine" line to tread ;>)
Mercurial is a nice one too but I guess most people won't understand and then you need to start explaining, which is what I was trying to avoid here haha
