Worlds Shortest Personality Test
You know, at first I was like "yeah, right, like this thing can be even close to accurate..."
You are dependable, popular, and observant. Deep and thoughtful, you are prone to moodiness. In fact, your emotions tend to influence everything you do. You are unique, creative, and expressive. You don't mind waving your freak flag every once and a while. And lucky for you, most people find your weird ways charming! |
I have to say, I'm quite surprised at how accurate it was for me. Not dead on, but pretty close.

A Child's Mind
Ever wonder what in the world could be going through your little one's mind? I sure do! My 4 year old son sometimes crawls in bed with us in the middle of the night. A few nights ago, he did just that. Several times, in the middle of the night, I awoke to him giggling - practically laughing in his sleep. It was so cute and funny. I asked him, after he awoke, if he remembered what he dreamed about and he said that there was a funny bug on the ceiling. Hmmm... Well, I'm glad to know he has happy dreams.

A Tribute to Older Women
Although I am not there yet, I have several friends who are already over 40 or quickly approaching. This piece, written by Andy Rooney, is for them:
"As I grow in age, I value women who are over 40 most of all, and here are just a few reasons why:
A women over 40 will not lay next to you in bed and ask, "What are you thinking?" She doesn't care what you are thinking.
If a women over 40 doesn't want to watch the game, she doesn't sit around whining about it, she does something she wants to do. And, it's usually something more interesting.
A woman over 40 knows herself well enough to be assured in who she is, what she is, what she wants and from whom.
Few women past the age of 40 give a damn what you might think about her or what she's doing.
Women over 40 are dignified, they seldom have a screaming match with you at the opera or in the middle of an expensive restaurant.
Of course, it you deserve it, they won't hesitate to shoot you, if they think they can get away with it.
Older women are generous with praise, often undeserved. They know what it's like to be unappreciated.
A younger woman with a man will often ignore even her best friend because she doesn't know her friends won't betray her.
Women get psychic as they age, you never have to confess your sins to a woman over 40. They always seem to already know them.
A woman over 40 looks good wearing bright red lipstick. This is not true of younger women or drag queens.
Once you get past a wrinkle or two, a woman over 40 is far sexier than her younger counterpart, Older women are forthright and honest. They'll tell you right off you are a jerk if you are acting like one!
You don't ever have to wonder where you stand with her.
For every stunning, smart, well coiffed hot women of 40+, there is a balding paunchy relic in yellow pants making a fool of himself with some 22-year old waitress.
Ladies, I want to say right now, I apologize for all those men who say, "Why buy the cow when you can get the milk for free"....here's an update for you. Nowadays, 80% of women are against marriage. Why? because they realize it's not worth the entire pig, just to get a little sausage."
Some of those are absolutely true of women in their 30s as well! I am looking forward to my 40s!

Thanks for the great commentary on women over 40--it's very true and nice to boot.
ReplyDeleteI tried the personality quiz but the pictures weren't coming up. Does that mean I have no personality?
ReplyDeleteThe women over 40 thing was great. The last thing reminded my of my dad, since he says that why buy the cow thing all the time. I gave it to the Wife as a comeback.
Celti, YOUR damn impressive. Your mind is like a mosaic, quite beautful in all its scattered colors and pieces. I just wanna hugs ya!! :)
ReplyDeleteI agree with Muse, to a point. It's just that there's something missing. This post needs more cowbell. ;)
ReplyDeleteHappy weekend!
Lois Lane
More cowbell is right!! Chris Walken said it best!!
ReplyDeleteLoved the map carpet, that's cool!!
I have no idea how you find all this wacky shit, LOL

Serra - I thought it was cool and glad it's true - makes me look forward to them that much more.
ReplyDeleteDenny - I WANT one of those. Brilliant! I wonder if they come in blue... lol
Vince - awww, that's a bummer. Yep, the last one's a great comeback!
Muse - *blush* - thanks, sweetie! What a lovely thing to say! *hugs*
Lois - hee hee hee! You've got it! You too!
Se7en - Holy shit, it's Christopher Walken!
Roun' roun' get aroun' I get around - the internet, that is. lol
Seamus - absolutely, though I imagine little specks screaming "holy shit, giants!!"
That B.O.C. skit was funny, thanks largely to C. Walken.
ReplyDeleteEvery one of those pics applied to me... and didn't.
Have a great weekend, Celti.
I have found my son giggling in his sleep too. It's very strange yet so cute!
ReplyDeleteLoved the woman over 40 list :)
Cheers!
You are sexy, powerful, and bold.
ReplyDeleteYou're full of passion and energy...
Sometimes this passion has a dark side.
You feel most alive when you're seducing someone.
You never fail to get someone's attention.
Quick minded, you're also quick to lose your temper!
I'd say that matches pretty darn good.
Here's my personality test results:
ReplyDeleteYou are elegant, withdrawn, and brilliant.
Your mind is a weapon, able to solve any puzzle.
You are also great at poking holes in arguments and common beliefs.
For you, comfort and calm are very important.
You tend to thrive on your own and shrug off most affection.
You prefer to protect your emotions and stay strong.
I agree with the over 40 thing, I'm already there at 37!!
Hmm... I have the same personality as Brighton, but there is NOTHING elegant or withdrawn 'bout me. I'm more klutzy and gregarious, I'd say. Brilliant... well, of course.
ReplyDeleteAnd now, I'm off to do something fun. A friend of mine offered to work for me today. A free Saturday? Open? And Gus is at my sister's. Oh, beautiful day!!
Have a sweet and swell weekend, Lady Luna!
