Free Association

PhotobucketFree association is described as a "psychonanalytic procedure in which a person is encouraged to give free rein to his or her thoughts and feelings, verbalizing whatever comes into the mind without monitoring its content." Over time, this technique is supposed to help bring forth repressed thoughts and feelings that the person can then work through to gain a better sense of self.
That's an admirable goal, but for the purposes of this excercise, we're just hoping to have a little fun with the technique. Each week I'll post ten words to which you can respond to with the first thing that comes to mind.
"Rules are, there are no rules." There are no right or wrong answers. Don't limit yourself to one word responses; just say everything that pops into your head.

  1. Groceries ::Hate to shop for them!

  2. Deodorant ::Keep two on hand at all times!

  3. Psychic :: Satanism

  4. Cherries :: Bing and in season right now!

  5. Spooky ::Skaredy Cat

  6. Yogurt ::Diet Staple

  7. Kitchen ::Hate doing dishes!

  8. Nothing personal :: Just a general statement!

  9. Be nice :: What goes around comes around!

  10. Delivery ::Good mail day!
