Great. 100% inaccurate. Oh, well.
You Are Play Compared to most people, you are very active and energetic.
You have a daring, challenging spirit. You're willing to go into something blind.
You are playful, carefree, and optimistic. You are up for trying anything.
If you dream it, you usually end up doing it. You're not one for putting your dreams on hold.
I like 'em, within reason. If they are too hard for me, I quit.Do you have any unusual collections?
Just dust, and s&p sets.What do people notice about you within the first hour of meeting you (other than appearance)?
Probably my smart mouth.
Shop, cook, and clean up. In short, I want a chef.2) What kind of cowardice do you most despise?
Refusing to admit when you're wrong.3) Did March come in "like a lion" this year, or leave that way? Or both, or neither?
I don't remember how it came in, actually, but it's certainly leaving like worm. Or a duck.4) Show and Tell.What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.
This is a very weird still life. Very Dali-esque. The teardrop on the right is either a giant Hershey's Kiss or a chiseled-out dish. Those blue things? No clue. It's all weird. Kinda dreamy. Looks cold.
I have an account with OKCupid, for the quizzes. I joined Friendster and MySpace to see what the fuss was about but never really used 'em. Signed up with Linkedin, but don't really check that too much. Do Blogger, Haloscan, and Bloglines count? I've been using them for 5 years (I have access to, uh, 16? blogs now). Uh, LJ, Wordpress, Xanga, and pbwiki, too, and OpenID (I actually use that last one when I go into deep hiding to comment on local people's blogs.) I use Meebo to IM from my blog. I have access to two Twitter accounts: one personal, and one work-related. And of course Facebook. I think there are a few others too, but I can't remember...Oh, deli.cio.us and LibraryThing. I also use GoogleDocs to share stuff. I think that's it. Maybe. ;-)2. Of the social networking sites you’ve actually tried, which one is your favorite? The most useful right now is Facebook, though I'm not enamored with their most recent redesign. I can't find stuff in my profile! But I can keep track of all the many strands of my life: church, work, family, and random friends old and new. 3. What’s the biggest drawback to such sites, in your opinion?
Keeping track of all the logins!!! I think the difficulty a lot of people have is oversharing and regretting what they've done.4. Other than it being the "hip thing to do," what’s the main reason you’d at least consider joining such a site?
For very specific payback: writing for blog platforms, keeping in touch with people for Facebook/LinkedIn, goofing around for OKCupid...5. Take the quiz: Are You Facebook, MySpace or Twitter?
I am le Twit.6. Do you have more people you'd call friends in real life, or on your profile called friends by the system at your most-used social networking site?
There are VERY few people I'd call friends in real life, because I'm pretty stingy with that term. One of the only things I like about MySpace is the concept of "Top [#] Friends" because most of the people I communicate with online I'm loathe to call friends, regardless of what Facebook calls 'em. ;-)
Having spouted about that, there are FAR more people IRL for me who aren't online anywhere. Anywhere that I'm aware of, at least.
You are a Reality-Based Intellectualist, also known as the liberal elite. You are a proud member of what’s known as the reality-based community, where science, reason, and non-Jesus-based thought reign supreme.
Take the quiz at www.FightConservatives.com
And that is, indeed, what I am for online, I guess.
Your Name's Power is Bravery Your name's power is that it helps you be brave.
Your name conveys both a conqueror and a poet.
People who meet you can't help but think you are radiant.
You try to live your life with intensity and exploration.
Whereas, this is just sorta weird.
Your Name's Power is Perception Your name's power is that it helps you be perceptive.
Your name conveys both wholeness and wisdom.
People who meet you can't help but think you are enlightened.
You try to live your life with flexibility and insight.
I'm a worldwide complainer who isn't afraid to bitch to anyone. I've learned from the masters, one of whom I work with. Actually, on the big stuff, I mostly just gripe to Beast and God, not necessarily in that order.
I love late summer/early fall. All the fresh fruits and veggies you can eat, beautiful colors, and that fall smell in the air.
On the other hand, I'm pretty psyched about spring-into-summer too. That's easily my second favorite. You'll note that winter doesn't appear on this list. Nor is it likely to do so. Ever.
I'm actually not much of a turnover connoisseur. I'm happy with Pillsbury or store-bought, though probably the local bakery makes some good ones. I go for the mega-sugar treats, personally. ;-)
Huh, normally it's nonexistent, but we are losing two long-term employees within three months of each other this year to retirement. We have been 'allowed' to replace them, but we won't be replacing anyone else who leaves. No pressure!
In the winter, I think I'd rather be water--I'm awfully dehydrated that time of year. However, overall, I think turning into random animals would be a lot more fun. I never watched this show; were the animals random? Or were you 'stuck' with one choice?
Two mesh/fishnet shirts for my son, from Hot Topic. And thank you for reminding me to check to see when they are scheduled for delivery [answer: today]. And and yes, thank you, my son is weird.Lunch

Actual game: probably Spoons. I guess we'll do that Sunday at youth group again.
In high school, for about a year, I was a shelver at the local public library.Recipe of the Week (instead of your recipe for life what is it just for the week?)
In college, I did work/study in the language lab, eventually "rising" to the level of scheduling everyone. Yawn. In the summers in college I was a CE intern at my church for two years, and one year I worked on campus setting up conferences and prepping the dorms for sports camps.
Also, though this was unpaid and technically a student 'club', I was co-manager of the campus radio station for a couple of years. This also involved scheduling people. I never want to do that again! Scheduling is a thankless job.
"Blow nose, throw away tissue, repeat."
I don't see this ending for awhile, though I don't really feel that sick. Drainage, uh, blows.
No
You Are The Brain You're the type of person who's always on, always churning.
You are alert and quick to react. You like to stay busy.
You are responsible but also demanding. You take up a lot of energy.
You are someone of deep mystery. There's a lot below the surface that's hard to figure out.
You Are Twitter You are energetic to the point of being hyperactive. You are the ultimate multitasker.
You don't have much of an attention span for anything. You like things short and sweet.
You can't help but let everyone know what you're doing, even if it's just what you're having for dinner.
You are big on sharing what's going on in your life. If anything, you share too much!
Being a know-it-all. O.M.G.--it makes me NUTS.2.) What piece of clothing that isn't lingerie or an undergarment do you have that you feel especially sexy/handsome in?
I have a couple of camisoles that fit the bill.3.) If you could drink ONLY two beverages for the rest of your life, which would you pick?
DDP and (clean) water.4.) What is your worst habit?
Interrupting (especially know-it-alls!).5.) Are you superstitious in any way?
Not really. The superstitious stuff I do is mostly habit.6.) What kind of shopping do you hate doing most? (Grocery shopping, clothes shopping, shoe shopping, etc.)
All shopping is evil.7.) What was a "fad" you remember from your childhood?
Pet rocks. Before that, ironing long hair to straighten it.
Right. The description is fairly accurate, but I'm not a huge avocado lover at all.
You Are an Avocado You are casual, laid back, and totally easy go get along with.
You are compatible with many different types of people, even those with strong personalities.
You are creative and inspired. You don't put yourself in a box, and you aren't into labels.
You are open-minded and diplomatic. People find your "middle of the road" ways comforting.
Well, it's not a surprise, but I sound like a right dork, don't I!?
You Are Going to Heaven You're so saintly you're practically an angel, and there's no other place for you than heaven.
You are always concerned with doing the right thing. You consider being a good person a joy... not a burden.
You're not perfect, and you don't expect anyone else to be. You are ethical without being sanctimonious about it.
You are happy with yourself and the decisions you've made. And that's what's important.
Always. So, those of you who call me, now you know the truth! :-)When was the last time you lost your temper?
I kind of fly off the handle semi-regularly, but I haven't gone to the "seeing red" extent for a long time, months probably.When you're lost, do you ask for directions?
Well, I have a GPS now, and I use GoogleMaps extensively before I leave the house, so I don't really get lost too often anymore. But yes, I've been known to stop at a gas station for directions.
Oh the nasty, gossipy things I've said over the years! Actually, one of the things that I will have to work out in my next life is being angry and not resolving that anger with someone who is now dead. Time's up on that one.2) Of all the people from the Bible -- excluding Jesus, because that is too easy ;-) -- who would you most like to meet?
I would stipulate having a video camera, and I'd want to meet Eve. WTF really happened with that snake?!3) What is the most beautiful sound you’ve ever heard?
Waves lapping me to sleep about 25 feet from my bed.4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.
It looks like Christmas to me. Red candle with sparkers emanating from it...it's a very cool photographic effect, but all in all...it just makes me feel all Christmas-y. Kind of nice on a rainy Monday morning in March. [how accidentally alliterative is that?]
I'd be pissed, and I'd probably leave a nasty comment, but I'd probably let it slide. I'm too lazy to do anything. Perhaps I shouldn't say that, since I've done the copyright notice on all my blogs. ;-)2. When someone publishes or creates something original — writing, artwork, music, etc. — how long do you think is a reasonable amount of time for copyright protection to be provided: for a set period of time, for the life of the author, or for a period of time that extends beyond the author’s life to cover his heirs?
Actually, it would totally depend on whether it was a meme or not. I'm less worried about one of my meme answers being copied than something I created myself (as in, questions that I wrote, or text). And, truthfully, I have found stuff copied into spamsites, so CBA rules the day!
I definitely think copyright should extend through the author's lifetime. After that, the heirs should be able to extend it as long as they want as long as they retain ownership. In other words, once Michael Jackson bought the Beatle's catalog, the clock should have started counting down from there, quickly, with no renewals. It has always pissed me off that he was making money off John Lennon's talent. And really--why CAN catalogs be purchased when their creators are still alive and interested in owning the rights?3. If you find a piece of artwork, photography or music that no longer has copyright protection (i.e., has moved into "public doman") and you modify or perform it in a unique way, do you feel that you should receive copyright protection despite the fact that it started as public domain material?
No. No no no.4. Should people be allowed to download music, television shows or movies freely from the web without paying the copyright holders? If not, who should be punished in such cases: the downloader, the sites that provide the material, or both?
I have great conflict in this area and don't really know the answer.5. Take the quiz: How do you do in the Five Factor Values Test?
My previous results are here Because they are three years old, I've redone the test:6. You produce a movie or television show and discover that a third party is reselling copies of your work that have been edited to remove content they find inappropriate. Would you allow them to continue to do so, or would you take legal action against them to stop them from altering your work?There are a couple of changes, but nothing unexpected, really, except the bit about humility--WTF? I'm totally not like this, but I don't like false modesty either.
You are Honest, Loyal, Generous and Tolerant Loyalty:
You value loyalty a fair amount.
You're loyal to your friends... to a point.
But if they cross you, you will reconsider your loyalties.
Staying true to others is important to you, but you also stay true to yourself.
Honesty:
You value honesty a fair amount.
You're honest when you can be, but you aren't a stickler for it.
If a little white lie will make a situation more comfortable, you'll go for it.
In the end, you mostly care about "situational integrity."
Generosity:
You value generosity a fair amount.
You are all about giving, as long as there's some give and take.
Supportive and kind, you don't mind helping out a friend in need.
But you know when you've given too much. You have no problem saying "no"!
Humility:
You don't really value humility.
You don't have much to be humble about!
And you might as well promote yourself, because no one else will.
You're a pretty special person, and you let everyone know it.
Tolerance:
You value tolerance a fair amount.
You are open to new cultures, beliefs, and ideas.
You have very few prejudices that you're aware of.
And while you are tolerant, you do stand true to what you believe.
Legal action. Jeez, is it really that hard to ask permission? I'd've probably given it! Note that in this fantasy, I'd have lawyer do the actual work. ;-)
I'm afraid it would be a stack: a book, a laptop, and a pencil. Yes, it's all symbolic, including the stack instead of one thing.Q2 - Banking: Do you bank the old-fashioned way--inside your bank's local branch--or do you conduct your banking online or through an ATM machine? Related: Do you bank with a national banking institution (think: Wells Fargo, J.P. Morgan Chase, etc.) or a locally owned community bank?
I go in our bank maybe four times a year, and drive through maybe twice that often. Otherwise, everything is done by EFT or ATM or online. We use a local bank. By intention. I want my money nearby, working in my own community.Q3 - Global Warming: Historically, support for environmental protection in the United States has been relatively nonpartisan. Republicans pointed with pride to Theodore Roosevelt's crucial role in promoting the conservation of natural resources by establishing national parks and forests, and Democrats applauded Franklin Delano Roosevelt's efforts to include conservation as part of the "New Deal" via the Soil Conservation Service and related programs. Although a majority of Americans believe the seriousness of global warming is either correctly portrayed in the news or underestimated, a record-high 41%, according to new Gallup poll, now say it is exaggerated (and most of those who feel that way are Republicans). The 2009 Gallup Environment survey measured public concern about eight specific environmental issues. Not only does global warming rank last on the basis of the total percentage concerned either a great deal or a fair amount, but it is the only issue for which public concern dropped significantly in the past year (pollution of drinking water and toxic contamination of water and soil ranked highest). Do you believe global warming is a serious problem caused by humans, a natural occurrence, or a bunch of made up hooey?
I think it's a natural phenomena which as been horrifically enhanced by human ignorance and we need to do something about it. Now. [and if these statistics don't prove that many Republicans are clueless about science, I don't know what would]Q4 - LEGOS: On this date in 1999, LEGOLAND California--the only LEGOLAND outside of Europe--opened in Carlsbad, California. If you could afford to commission (warning: pop-up window ahead) full-time LEGO artist Sean Kenney to make anything for you, what would you ask him to create?
This is so weird: one of my coworkers is currently on her way with her family to visit Legoland in Carlsbad!
Anyway. Having played with Duplos and Legos for years with kids, I'm kinda not interested in having anymore of them around...at least until there are grandchildren. Unless dude can build me a functional robot that cooks good food and cleans up afterwards!
Crayon?! This must be one of those doesn't-translate-over-the-ocean words. How about chalk? No, though I've gotten chalk dust in my mouth innumerable times by clapping the erasers together somewhat energetically.2. Do you have socks on at the moment?
I do not.3. Have you ever tripped over thin air!?
Few days pass when I don't do this. I'm really not coordinated sometimes.4. What’s your favourite animal?
I was going to be cute and say 'humans' but then I realized that wasn't really true. So, wolves.5. What’s your favourite tree?
The crapapple tree in the front yard of the house in which I grew up. And, generally, pine/spruce/fir trees.6. What was the last thing you ate?
Wheat Thins with almond-swiss cheese spread, i.e., brunch.
Pretty accurate...except I'm not a big fan of baseball, especially MLB.
You Are Baseball Games You like old fashioned things. You're one of those people who values tradition.
You enjoy a slow pace of life. You believe that life is all about enjoying every moment.
You love the changing of the seasons, and you look forward to what each season brings.
You are smart and a bit obsessive. You become very immersed in your interests.
For myself, not really--hard to get fired in a library. For Beast, pretty worried.2. How likely are you to be laid off because of the recession?
Extremely unlikely, unless my mouth REALLY gets me in trouble.3. What plans have you made in case a layoff does come down?
We're watching our money a little more closely, and we'd immediately cancel several 'luxury' things, but overall...whaddaya gonna do?4. What have you decided to go without in order to save some money?
Generally, we're trying not to eat out so much. That's a big savings for us!5. Has anything positive come from the recession?
Schedule Nazi retired. Hallelujah! That makes it almost worthwhile.6. How will you know your personal recession is over?
When Beast gets a raise.7. How will you celebrate?
Put the raise in the bank. We are so boring!
Meeting expectations. My expectations are so low, though....2. What letter grade would you give yourself for your performance at work or school?
As far as the work goes: A+ On "getting along with others": B- and falling.3. On a scale from 1 to 10, how happy have you been with the weather so far in 2009?
8. It really hasn't been as horrible as it could have been. Remember, though: I'm sick and probably not thinking clearly, and it's sunny outside right now. :-)4. Which of the Motion Picture Association of America’s film ratings would you give your social life so far in 2009?
PG. Maybe PG-13 at times, but when you hang out with teens, you have to try to keep it semi-clean.5. 2009’s parents are on the phone and want to know how 2009 can improve its performance. What have been 2009’s areas of strength and what are its areas for growth in the second quarter?
2009 is a joy to have in class...
OK, not really. 2009 is just more of the same, although there have been signs of improvement and in some areas hope for the future. 2009 needs to build on those small steps and not let the potholes of spring slow it down.
Australia, or maybe southern England or Jersey/Guernsey or the Isles of Scilly. They are all English-speaking locations and semi-warmish.Lunch

Mom worked full-time at the county court as a clerk. Dad did a number of things, mostly working for himself or as his own supervisor: he built houses (and other buildings), he got his Realtor's license and sold properties, he worked for the Presbytery, he worked for a specific church...like I said, he got around.Recipe of the Week (instead of your recipe for life what is it just for the week?)
"Smile though your heart is breaking..."
This really isn't me, especially this week.
You Are Spirit You are resilient, hopeful, and inspiring. You have a lot of emotional, physical, and mental energy.
You nurture and nourish yourself. You know that you need fulfillment and downtime if you want to be your best.
You stay present in every moment. You don't allow yourself to be distracted or flustered.
You appreciate the life you have been given. You embrace all that is beautiful in the world.
I love me some k'boy boots! [I think answering Dallas makes this a required answer, probably, eh?]
You Are Cowboy Boots You are incredibly down to earth and happy with yourself. You don't pretend to be someone else.
You also tend to be very practical. You don't really have a lot of room for fluff in your life.
You are a very honest and direct person. You will give anyone a straight answer, even if it's a bit uncomfortable.
While you're quite sensible, you always like a little bit of flash in your life. You don't overdo it, but you do like turning heads.
Rather not. I used to like owls, but then I went to college where one of the sorority mascots was an owl. That sorority tended to pledge girls who a) were not particulary bright and b) were bitches in general terms, so I went off owls as a result. Oh well. Maybe I should have pledged...? :-)
Your Animal is the Owl You are brilliant, but you keep your insights to yourself. You tend to be a recluse.
Others are captivated and enchanted by you, but you hardly even notice. You have a powerful presence.
You are passionate and strident. After a while your personality can be a bit overwhelming.
You are quite misunderstood. You are more emotional and mystical than people realizes.
I'm going for 'easily irritated' today.2.) What do you think is one of the worst television shows ever created?
Virtually anything currently on MTV. Yes, I'm officially old. Also, not a fan of American Idol.3.) Have you ever ended up injured after trying an interesting new sex position?
Nothing more than some minor muscle aches.4.) How crucial do you think communication is between you and a regular sexual partner? Do you talk often about what works, what doesn't, things you want to try, etc., or do you keep the discussions to a minimal and let the physical flow as it may?
I'm about 50/50 on this. Depends on the moment. I guess I lean more toward communication, if anything.5.) Who are your favorite comedic actors/actresses?
Carol Burnett, Tim Allen, Lucille Ball, Tina Fey, Bill Murray. Please note the lack of any recent male SNL alums....6.) In what way(s) do you wish your childhood was different?
I wish my mom & I had gotten along better.7.) Cotton Candy: Delicious treat or disgusting mess?
Yuck. Just...eeuw!!
I just bought new, real, plates from Target last fall, after 10 years of using plain white Corelle. The new ones are also white, in two designs (they didn't have enough of the one design), and heavy and ... just real.2) What is the most dangerous thing you have ever done on purpose?
Get up in the morning, some days.3) Whose reputation would you like to ruin, and how would you do it? And whose would you want to enhance?
I wouldn't really want to ruin anyone's reputation, not seriously. Most of the people I can't stand already have pretty crappy reps. Whose would I enhance? I doubt most people need my help in this area. I'm lousy at sales!4) Show and Tell. What comes to mind first when you see this picture? Or, tell a story if it reminds you of one.
Lunchline in the cafeteria. When I was in school, we were allowed to use silverware, not plastic. And we used these very sorts of utensil holders from which we selected our set.
OK, I'm fine with this. What does green tea smell light, though?
You Should Light a Green Tea Candle You are calm yet energetic. You take good care of yourself, and you have a lot of endurance.
Like most people, you have a hectic life. But unlike others, you try to have as many moments of peace as possible.
You're the type of person who's witty and insightful. You're secure with yourself, and you often have a hilarious take on life.
You are expressive and apt to talk quite a bit. However, you're able to kick back and listen too.
I'm more of a saver...the angst I have felt over replacing my dead laptop is incredible. I think I'm having panic attacks because of it. And yes, I am serious.Do you prefer to walk around barefoot in your home? Socks? Shoes?
Barefoot or sox only. In the coldest winter months--and in the summer when the A/C is psycho--I will wear mocs or good slippers. I don't have any of the latter right now.Do you talk to yourself?
Yes. One of the joys of having a small child was talking "to him" all through the grocery stores when we shopped. Now, I mostly just talk out loud to myself when I'm pissed or annoyed about something.
TOTALLY agree--I've done this, and would do it again, and I know I'd enjoy it.Your result for The Where Should YOU Travel Test...
Train through Europe
You scored 74% culture, 42% social, 32% activity, and 39% adventure!
A train trip through Europe is a fantastic way to enrich yourself with many different cultures within a relatively short distance. The train service in Europe is out of this world and almost always on time. It doesn't lump you together with a group since you prefer to be independent, yet it takes the scariness out of navigating around a new country in a rental car, trying to make sense of the map. The train system brings you from downtown to downtown and there are often hotels within a short walk of the station. You could decide which countries interest you the most and if you are eligible, buy a rail pass in advance to save a bundle of money. Arriving at a European train station is an architectureally beautiul way to introduce yourself to a new city and it sets the perfect scene for your new experience.
Far from it.2. If an alien landed in your back garden what would you say to it?
Uhm...hi?3. Do you prefer dogs or cats?
Dogs, but I'm allergic to both.4. Quilt or blankets?
I'm not fussy, though on my bed I prefer a quilt.5. Would you want to be immortal?
Not if I were alone. Actually, no, I wouldn't. Though, technically, we all are to a degree....6. Do you love or hate mobile phones?
They are useful tools, but like anything else, we tend to become too dependent on them and overuse them.
I would KILL for a small office of my own with a door I could shut in one particular co-worker's face! But I'm happier with the cube I do have now rather than just parked in the middle of the big workroom as I was a few years ago.2. Is your desk at work more organized or less organized than your workspace at home?
Normally, my work desk is way more organized than my home desk, but lately it's gotten completely out of hand. I have been itchy to redo my desk for awhile--and I need to dust anyway. Maybe this week....3. Which single office supply do you find that you use the most?
Pencil lead? If we're talking normal supplies, it has to be ink or lead. I went through 100 barcodes today, though, along with a lot of the little forms we use for media cataloging, and some scrap paper.4. You notice that a co-worker has taken one of your office supplies: a pair of scissors or a stapler, for example. You see that your name is on it when he opens his desk drawer. Shortly afterwards, he leaves for lunch. Do you retrieve your stuff or leave it there?
No, dude, I'd demand the item back when I saw it in his (or, more likely, her) drawer. I'm totally not playing that--believe me, I have been down this road!5. Take the quiz: What Office Supply Are You?
When I did this before, I was a red pen. Fairly accurate.6. Which of the following are you most likely to use the most at work: a cheap ballpoint, a felt-tip, a Sharpie marker, a dry erase marker, or a pencil?
Pencil. Not even close to a contest.
Just the one, in high school.2. Did you go to public school? If you have children did/do they?
I did, and he does, and so did Beast. There was never any question, except for a couple of rough months in 5th grade when I was ready to either homeschool him or find some way of getting him out of a horrendous situation at school.3. Are you currently in school or taking classes?
I'm an autodidact at this point in my life.4. What level of education have you completed?
I have a Master's Degree. So does Beast. There are two other people in my extended family with them, and two others with doctorates. Everyone else my generation and younger has college degrees. Pretty good considering my parents never took a single college class.5. Do you, or did you have loans out for your (or your children's) education?
I had loans for college, but they were paid back within about 6 years. I'm sure Sparky will have loans. I'm hoping for scholarships....6. What are your thoughts on the cost of tuition for colleges and universities?
I try very hard not to think about it. I went to a small private school with what seemed like incredibly high costs. They have quadrupled since then.7. Did school prepare you education wise for working in the real world?
In some ways, but what school can't really prepare you for is self-motivation over the long haul. Also, no one ever really tells you that middle school recurs on a regular basis at work.8. Did school prepare you emotionally for what lay ahead?
Oops, I jumped ahead. Not really, but public school at least prepared me to deal with people who were on completely different life plans from me.9. If you were to run a high school, what changes would you make?
There is a reason I don't work in the educational system: several relatives have been teachers. I knew early on that I didn't want to deal with the politics in teaching. If I could change anything I would get rid of tenure, and I'd also allow teachers to be in charge in their classrooms. Not parents, not kids, not politicians...teachers.
Wow, on a major role...till that last paragraph. Oh, well.
You Are Truth You are communicative, talkative, and honest to a fault.
You love telling others about yourself, but not as much as you like hearing about them.
You connect easily with strangers. You're very open, and you can find common ground with people.
You love to gossip and tell secrets. Telling all is how you get close to people.
