About

Long, long ago in a blogosphere far, far away, we met in each other's comments. Who would have guessed that three years later we'd be married and blogging about our two daughters? Not us, but here we are!

Quizzicalities

Now relegated to Blogblivion...

Thursday, September 07, 2006

Because it will be Friday in 45 minutes.

--Deb at 11:14 PM--




You Are 48% Hypochondriac



You are a bit of a hypochondriac, but nothing too extreme (yet).

You watch your health a little more than you should - even when there’s nothing to worry about.

Are You a Hypochondriac?




You Are a Life Blogger!



Your blog is the story of your life - a living diary.

If it happens, you blog it. And make it as entertaining as possible.

What Kind of Blogger Are You?




What Your Bathroom Habits Say About You



You are very independent and self-centered. You don’t solve other people’s problems - and you don’t expect them to solve yours.

Your idea of fashion is jeans and a t-shirt. Clean, if you’re lucky.

You are a very outgoing person. You are true to yourself, and you never hold back.

In relationships, you are practical and realistic. You have a romantic side, but you only let it out when it’s appropriate.


What Do Your Bathroom Habits Say About You?




You Should Rule Saturn



Saturn is a mysterious planet that can rarely be seen with the naked eye.

You are perfect to rule Saturn because like its rings, you don’t always follow the rules of nature.

And like Saturn, to really be able to understand you, someone delve beyond your appearance.

You are not an easy person to befriend. However, once you enter a friendship, you’ll be a friend for life.

You think slowly but deeply. You only gain great understanding after a situation has past.


What Planet Should You Rule?


This is actually about right these days, I think.

--Deb at 08:36 PM--

Though I wish there were an option for “let’s forget about the government and go colonize our own freaking planet and somehow forget to have one there.” Not a big government fan, but if folks insist on having one I’d like it to do something marginally useful.  Which is, I suppose, the same thing, but I like to pretend there’s a distinction.




You Are a Liberal Republican



When you tell people that you’re Republican, they rarely believe you.

That’s because you’re socially liberal - likely pro-choice and pro-gay rights.

You’re also not so afraid of big goverment, as long as it benefits people and not politicians.

You are the most likely of any Republican type to swing over to the Democrat side sometimes.

What’s Your Political Persuasion?


Saturday, September 02, 2006

Not Anymore!

--Deb at 03:19 PM--

Well, unless it’s “planet or planet-like object.” Heh.




You Are From Pluto



You are a dark, mysterious soul, full of magic and the secrets of the universe.

You can get the scoop on anything, but you keep your own secrets locked in your heart.

You love change and you use it to your advantage, whether by choice or chance.

You don’t like to compromise, to the point of being self-destructive with your stubborness.

Live life with love, and your deep powers will open the world to you.

What Planet Are You From?

But I Never Left The Stream In A More Permanent Sense

--Jay at 08:19 AM--




You’ve Changed 40% in 10 Years



Ah, the past! You may not remember it well - because you’re still living in it.

While you’ve changed some, you may want to update your wardrobe, music collection and circle of friends.

How Much Have You Changed in 10 Years?


Thursday, August 17, 2006

Existentialist

--Jay at 09:09 AM--

You scored as Existentialist. Existentialism emphasizes human capability. There is no greater power interfering with life and thus it is up to us to make things happen. Sometimes considered a negative and depressing world view, your optimism towards human accomplishment is immense. Mankind is condemned to be free and must accept the responsibility.

--Jay at 11:08 AM--

You scored as Batman, the Dark Knight. As the Dark Knight of Gotham, Batman is a vigilante who deals out his own brand of justice to the criminals and corrupt of the city. He follows his own code and is often misunderstood. He has few friends or allies, but finds comfort in his cause.

Ah, Saturday afternoon.

--Deb at 04:55 PM--




You Should Rule Mars



Mars is a planet that shines brightly and loops wildly around the solar system.

You are perfect to rule Mars, because you are both energetic and independent.

Like Mars, you seems attractive and bright to others - but you’re difficult to pin down.

You are a great thinker, but you only think in the present and ignore the future.

Full of enthusiasm and inspiration, you are into your own thing… and rather insensitive to others.

What Planet Should You Rule?


Better That a Martin…

--Jay at 10:19 AM--




You Are A Rowan Tree



You are full of charm and cheer. You light up a room.

And while you crave attention, you do it without ego.

You are an interesting mix of contradictions - and very unpredictable.

You are both dependent and independent, calm and restless.

You are passionate, emotional, gregarious, and (at times) unforgiving.

What’s Your Celtic Horoscope?


Wednesday, August 02, 2006

It’s not Friday, but it’s 100 degrees so what the hell, you know?

--Deb at 02:31 PM--




You Are a Chimera



You are very outgoing and well connected to many people.

Incredibly devoted to your family and friends, you find purpose in nurturing others.

You are rarely alone, and you do best in the company of others.

You are incredibly expressive, and people are sometimes overwhelmed by your strong emotions.

What Mythological Creature Are You?


Thursday, July 27, 2006

Comin’ To Ya… It’s A Soul Quiz…

--Jay at 12:17 PM--




What Your Soul Really Looks Like



You are a warm hearted and open minded person. It’s easy for you to forgive and forget.



You are a grounded person, but you also leave room for imagination and dreams. You feet may be on the ground, but you’re head is in the clouds.



You believe that people see you for how you are, not how you look. But deep down, you know that’s not exactly true.



Your near future is a lot like the present, and as far as you’re concerned, that’s a very good thing.



For you, falling in love is all about flirting and feeling playful. You couldn’t fall in love with someone who took life too seriously.

Inside the Room of Your Soul

Via Frankensoul


Yep Indeed-y.

--Deb at 11:01 AM--




You Are 52% Brutally Honest



Honesty is important to you, but generally, you try not to be brutal about it.

You’ll sugar coat the truth when you need to… and tell a white lie when necessary.

How Brutally Honest Are You?

P.S. Isn’t it Friday yet?


Tuesday, July 25, 2006

How Old Am I Again?

--Jay at 10:58 AM--




You Are 30 Years Old



Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.



13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.



20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what’s to come… love, work, and new experiences.



30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You’ve had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!



40+: You are a mature adult. You’ve been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

What Age Do You Act?

Insert Clever Title Here.

--Deb at 04:43 PM--




Your Driving Is is: 60% Male, 40% Female



According to studies, you drive both like a guy and a girl.

This means you’re a pretty average driver, with typical quirks.

Occasionally you’re frustrated and or a little reckless, but that’s the exception - not the norm.

Do You Drive Like a Guy or a Girl?


Friday, July 07, 2006

OK!

--Deb at 11:42 AM--




You Are Most Like Ronald Reagan



People tend to think you’re a god - or that you almost ruined the country.

But even if people do disagree with you, they still fall victim to your charms!

What Modern US President Are You Most Like?


Thursday, July 06, 2006

This Can’t Be Right…

--Jay at 09:54 AM--




You Are Superman



Faster than a speeding bullet, more powerful than a locomotive, and able to leap tall buildings in a single bound.

And pretty cute too. No wonder you’re the most popular super hero ever!

What Superhero Are You?


Wednesday, July 05, 2006

Smash!

--Deb at 10:31 AM--




You Are The Hulk



Super strong and super scary, you were never meant to be a superhero.

You’re not really into saving the world. And the world better get out of your way.

What Superhero Are You?


Wednesday, June 28, 2006

That’s an awful lot of government you’ve got there…

--Deb at 05:44 PM--

Amazingly, I managed to answer correctly all of the questions in this mock citizenship test I saw over at J-Walk.  I wonder if I’d remember any of it without blogs refreshing my memory every so often…


Does This Mean I Should Have Been A Shrink?

--Jay at 03:43 PM--

I am a
Violet


What Flower
Are You?


“You have a shy personality. You tend to hesitate before trying new things or meeting new people. But once people get to know you, you open up and show the world what you are really all about.”

Un-Canna-ly via Bogie


Wednesday, June 21, 2006

Ditto

--Jay at 12:48 PM--




You Are 68% Gentleman



You are definitely a gentleman. You’re very considerate and you have excellent manners.

Occasionally, you slip and do something foolish… but usually no one notices!

Are You A Gentleman?

And for the women: Are you a lady?


About right, I think.

--Deb at 11:42 AM--




You Are 52% Lady



You’re part lady, part modern woman.
Etiquette is important to you, but you brush aside rules that are outdated or silly.

Are You A Lady?

And for the men: Are You a Gentleman?


Sunday, June 11, 2006

It Has A Pattern?  Who Knew!

--Jay at 09:49 AM--




Your Brain’s Pattern



You have a dreamy mind, full of fancy and fantasy.

You have the ability to stay forever entertained with your thoughts.

People may say you’re hard to read, but that’s because you’re so internally focused.

But when you do share what you’re thinking, people are impressed with your imagination.

What Pattern Is Your Brain?


Saturday, June 03, 2006

Probably Most Accurate…

--Jay at 09:50 AM--

As to how others see me than to reality, but it’s not horribly far off either.




Slow and Steady



Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy.



They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder.



It’d really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment.



They expect you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then usually decide against it.

How Do People See You?

Via Jen, my results-twin


Friday, June 02, 2006

But Do I Have To Leave My Heart There?

--Jay at 02:20 PM--




You Belong in San Francisco



You crave an eclectic, urban environment. You’re half California, half NYC.

You’re open minded, tolerant, and secretly think you’re the best.

People may dismiss you as a hippie, but you’re also progressive, interesting, and rich!

Where Does Your Inner Californian Belong?


Wednesday, May 31, 2006

Because I’ve got nothing.

--Deb at 12:45 PM--




You Are 52% Cynical



Yes, you are cynical, but more than anything, you’re a realist.

You see what’s screwed up in the world, but you also take time to remember what’s right.

How Cynical Are You?


Saturday, May 27, 2006

Well, that pretty much covers it.

--Deb at 02:13 PM--




Your Personality Is Like Acid



A bit wacky, you’re very difficult to predict.

One moment you’re in your own little happy universe...

And the next, you’re on a bad trip to your own personal hell!

What Drug Is Your Personality Like?


Mmmm… Ice Cream

--Jay at 07:34 AM--




You Are Chubby Hubby Ice Cream



So there’s more of you to love… a whole lot more!

What Flavor Ben and Jerry’s Ice Cream Are You?

Via CTG, who is a yummy sounding flavor I have never heard of before.


Wednesday, May 24, 2006

OK…this is one of the stranger results I’ve run across lately.

--Deb at 02:08 PM--

Have I mentioned lately how much I still miss smoking?  LOL.  Seriously, 26 1/2 months later, I’m starting to suspect that I won’t ever not miss it.  *sigh*




You Are Pork



You like to think you’re the other white meat, but many people don’t want anything to do with you.

You probably smoke. And it’s likely that no body part of yours is off limits.

What Kind of Meat Are You?


Saturday, May 20, 2006

Because on Saturday you can’t have too many quizzes.

--Deb at 11:10 AM--




You Are Indigo



Of all the shades of blue, you are the most funky, unique, and independent.

Expressing yourself and taking a leap of faith has always been easy for you.

What Color Blue Are You?


Dear Quiz Writer

--Jay at 10:59 AM--

I believe the word you’re seeking for this is “libertarian,” with pro-war leanings in the real world:







Your Political Profile:


Overall: 70% Conservative, 30% Liberal
Social Issues: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal
Personal Responsibility: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal
Fiscal Issues: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal
Ethics: 50% Conservative, 50% Liberal
Defense and Crime: 100% Conservative, 0% Liberal

How Liberal Or Conservative Are You?

Via Pammy


Friday, May 19, 2006

Not surprising.

--Deb at 02:12 PM--




Your Ideal Pet is a Cat



You’re both aloof, introverted, and moody.

And your friends secretly wish that you were declawed!
