Holy Crap - This One's Got Me Pegged

Found this fun little quiz from Rachel, Following in My Shoes, and Lori , The Charming Lamb:

What Your Height Says About You

You are a very vulnerable and spiritual person. Your emotions run deep. You have a philosophical and poetic soul. You think things through and are a bit of a skeptic. You tend to be very opinionated. You are a perfectionist with high standards. You prefer to work alone. You work hard, and you don't like interruptions. You are about as tall as the average Japanese woman.

What Does Your Height Say About You?

My Random Six

I am SO behind on my tags... I owe Clara Six Random Things... let's see what I can come up with:

1. I have a new addiction: The Twilight Saga from Stephenie Meyer
   
   Omigosh - I'm completely hooked. Read all 4 books in less than a week, and I've even gone back and re-read some of my favorite parts in Twilight and Breaking Dawn. I can't WAIT for the movie - you know where I'll be come November 21st!
   


2. Who are you calling a scaredy-cat? Me, that'd be ME!
   
   I used to LOVE watching scary movies. But now? I'm such a chicken-shit, I can't stand the images that come into my head at night, so no more horror movies for me. I wanted to see The Grudge, The Messengers and I can't remember what else. The images from Exorcism of Emily Rose are the worst!!
   


3. If you saw me shopping at Target, you'd call me a bitch.
   
   But only if I didn't look your way. If we made eye contact, I'd say hello with a smile. But unless I'm smiling or chatting away, I look like a meeeeeean bitch. Probably another reason why the guys were hesitant to approach me back in my clubbin' days - lol.
   
   
4. I gave up designer clothes and handbags instead of my DVD's.
   
   Wha-? lol - yep, Hubz sold his X5 to save money and drove around an '89 pick-up truck for almost 2 years. He asked if I'd stop buying movies every Tuesday to contribute, but I countered with no more designer stuff til' Christmas. Amazingly, I held past my goal, since I must have something defective with me and have never been much of a shopper anyway. :)
   
   
5. What does a chocoholic do when she's out of chocolate? She makes her own!
   
   It sorta just came to me - I had a contact in San Diego who I'd buy chocolate lollipops as giveaways during a birthday party or something. And I wanted to give a homemade gift to a friend for her birthday, so I up and went to Michael's to get started and now I have a whole CLOSET full of supplies. There's none to be found in this small city - I thought of opening a business, but... lol - no time. So now I do them for fun, and the boys have friends who ask when's the next time they'll bring goodies in to the classroom.
   


6. And if you'd like to meet new people in a new town, you can always start a book club!
   
   Omigosh - I was going out of my mind. Someone mentioned it to me once, and I thought, "Why not?" So I put up fliers and posted an ad at Craigslist. But I decided to do something different - and every month, we'd have both a book discussion AND a movie night. Voila! The Book and Movie (BAM) Fan Club was born. It'll be a year in November, and we're at almost 20 members.

For more on this, you can check out Seven Facts and my Unspectacular Quirks. And... if you haven't done any of these yet, I'd like to tag YOU!

How Competitive Are You?

This was fun (and quick!) - grabbed it from Faery Dancing:

You Are Fencing

You're competitive but not brutally so. You compete to make yourself better. You find having an opponent to be challenging and rewarding. You are fierce when you're in a competition, but you don't wish your rivals any real harm.

What Olympic Sport Are You?

All About Me... and You!

SEVEN FACTS

Faeryrowan tagged me with this one - here's an encore of the one I posted at the Dance:

1. When I attend a conference and finally meet someone in person (who only knows me by my name in email), they think they're gonna meet an 80-year old lady with her hair in a bun and glasses on the tip of her nose. Then - in walks me.
   
   
2. I exemplify: "It's the quiet ones you have to watch out for."
   
   
3. I'm an organizational fREak. I love to get things organized but can't put my friggin' laundry away by the end of the week.
   
   
4. I'm addicted to movies. Screw TV (and those damn commercials) - I can only watch it if I TiVo it. I've got 500+ DVD's stashed and waiting to get systemized (lol) into my new discsox's.
   
   
5. I like to get stupid with the kids. Put my ass on roller blades for a race around the block, trying to teach myself to swim laps during their swimming lessons or get loud at the - well - anywhere. They should be embarassed.
   
   
6. I am a romantic FOOL. I used to dream of quiet evenings after family dinner, weekly dates with the hubz, or maybe even a surprise on my birthday. Then I woke the eff up.


7. But then again, we get our snookie on, like, 3-4 times a WEEK. It doesn't matter if it's already midnight. Someone please tell this mutha to stop complaining already?!

Thanks for your patience all - mwah!

Unspectacular Quirks

Can you relate to any of these??

1. Organizational skills are one of my biggest strengths with work, but at home I have the mail and the bills and my laptop and my phone and a bunch of other crap cluttering my kitchen counter.
   
   
2. I don't clean the bathrooms anymore since Hubby kept talking smack. I told him if he didn't shut up, and if he didn't like the way I cleaned them, I wouldn't clean them anymore. Ten years later, I haven't scrubbed a toilet in eight.
   
   
3. Every night before I go to bed, I make the rounds. I check each and every door, check on the kids and turn the alarm on. Then I cuss out Hubby coz I wish he would check the doors instead.
   
   
4. I love having plants in the house. But I only have a couple, mostly because I can raise them from the dead.
   
   
5. I can lounge in my pajamas alllllll day sometimes. No need to get dressed for work!
   
   
6. I cuss. A lot. In our house, it's almost a term of endearment sometimes.

There's Something Rotten in Denmark

What's your MBTI?

I took the full version (Myers Briggs Typology Test) years ago (10+ years ago actually), which involved an entire day's session of over 300+ people during a conference in Hawaii. Our Regional Vice President wanted to give our General Managers and their spouses another way to learn about each other, as well as our fellow associates.

Hawaii? For a conference? We went 3 years in a row. (Sigh) Those were the good ol' days. Which even included a middle of the day quickie during one of the breaks. lol - I bet Skinny Ass misses those days, too!

Anyhoo - when I first took the test, I was an ISFJ. Skinny Ass was an ENTJ. Total opposites except for the last piece. Though if your read about my Joys of Working from Home, you might've already known I was a "J". Ummm - I should probably mention that there's a hint of sarcasm in that title. ;)

I took a mini-version of the test again a few years ago - it almost stayed the same, except the second piece was borderlined between S (Sensing) and N (Intuitive).

Earthly Explorations tagged me with a short version of the Myers-Brigges Typology Test.

My type is: INFJ.

And what the hell is an INFJ?

Beneath the quiet exterior, INFJs hold deep convictions about the weightier matters of life. Those who are activists -- INFJs gravitate toward such a role -- are there for the cause, not for personal glory or political power.

INFJs are champions of the oppressed and downtrodden. They often are found in the wake of an emergency, rescuing those who are in acute distress. INFJs may fantasize about getting revenge on those who victimize the defenseless. The concept of 'poetic justice' is appealing to the INFJ.

"There's something rotten in Denmark." Accurately suspicious about others' motives, INFJs are not easily led. These are the people that you can rarely fool any of the time. Though affable and sympathetic to most, INFJs are selective about their friends. Such a friendship is a symbiotic bond that transcends mere words.

INFJs have a knack for fluency in language and facility in communication. In addition, nonverbal sensitivity enables the INFJ to know and be known by others intimately.

Writing, counseling, public service and even politics are areas where INFJs frequently find their niche... -Joe Butt

My Results:

Introverted (44)
iNtuitive (25)
Feeling (25)
Judging (11)
