Blogthings Explosion

I'm really far behind on posting this, so I'm doing all the old ones before I go back to one a day later this week....

You Should Go to the Olympics
You are an international and cosmopolitan person. You love to experience different cultures and ways of living.

You love how inclusive and diverse the Olympics are. And you wouldn't mind visiting every location that hosts them.

You may not be the biggest sports fan, but you're sure that you will find something you'll love at the Olympics.

Besides, there's probably no better place in the world to do some good people watching than the Olympic Village!
Oh, yeah, I'm so IN for this! I was disheartened when the US lost the next Olympics to Rio. I had intended to volunteer. Oh, well.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are a Pumpkin Latte
You love fall and embrace everything about it. In fact, you are a bit of a geek when it comes to fall.

You are ready to celebrate at the first sign of fall. And you have been known for celebrating a bit early.

You may be guilty of loving all the cliché things about fall, but they're cliché for a reason.

You look forward to fall and enjoy every single part of this season. You know you'll miss it like crazy when it's gone.
I'll miss it like crazy because after fall comes WINTER. Ick. However, I do NOT drink lattes, and I hate pumpkin-flavored anything anyway.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are An Idealist
You see the world as it should be, and you try to live up to your ideals. You take values seriously.

You are careful about what sort of mark you leave on the world, and you treat people with respect.

You wish that the world would change, but you know you probably won't get that lucky. Instead you try to be the change.

You have high standards, but you acknowledge that we are all works in progress - and that includes you!
Well, yes, actually.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are a BBQ Chip
You are down to earth and practical, but not too practical. You still like to have fun.

You are quite charming, and people enjoy being around you. You naturally take on the host or hostess role.

You are generally easygoing, but people can try your patience. You prefer to lead a group if you can.

You are always down to have some fun, and you're likely to think some up if things get a little too dull.
Fairly accurate, except for the minor detail that I don't like BBQ, or BBQ-flavored stuff, that much.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
Your Addiction is Gaming
You may not have considered yourself a gamer until you got a smartphone, and now you love to play fun little games.

You are addicted to whatever the latest game on your phone is, and you keep playing to reach the next level!

You are a fun loving person, and you never have a problem entertaining yourself. You refuse to be bored.

You can be a bit easily distracted at times, but it's often a good thing. Your play can lead to some cool discoveries.
Well, this is no surprise. I was told, recently, by my college-age son that absolutely should NOT start playing Minecraft because I "will never stop." Having watched kids at work play this after school and all summer, I tend to agree.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are the Study
You are a total brain, and you don't stop learning just because work or school is over.

You find little more relaxing than a good book, and you wouldn't mind a room stocked full of interesting reading.


You aren't just a bookworm - you're a full on intellectual. You may do a lot of interesting writing and thinking in that study as well.

The world is fascinating to you, and you are often quite content to quietly learn about it in the comfort of your own home.

The one thing our house is missing. :( But the good news is that I can study here.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Should Eat in Barcelona
You are a true foodie, and there's little in this world you won't try. Your taste in food is broad.

You emphasize quality over quantity when it comes to eating. You like the best ingredients, prepared properly... maybe with a bit of wine.

You enjoy travel, but you don't like to wander aimlessly. You would rather stay in a place for a while and savor it.

You are attracted to a slower pace of life, even if it's only something you get to experience when you're on vacation.
Barcelona sounds lovely. Much of this description is a long ways away from my reality, but I'll taste anything once.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Should Go to a New Years Parade
You think holidays are more important that some people realize, and you enjoy taking stock of your life at holiday time.

You are a big believer in out with the old and in with the new. And you love to celebrate that.

You also strongly believe that holidays should be about
community and and ritual. There is a lot lost when things become too commercialized.

You love the idea of a parade you go to every year on. Especially if there's some good food involved too!
And, ironically, just before I did this quiz we purchased tickets to see the Rose Parade on January 1, 2015. So, yeah.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are Ross
You are a very sweet person, and you are as sensitive as you are kind. You take everything to heart.

You are a romantic, and you don't give up on your true love. That being said, you do have some trust issues!

While you can be emotional with people, you are very logical when it comes to ideas. You have a scientific mind.

You are concerned with the facts, and you aren't above correcting people if you think they're wrong. You can be quite stubborn.
SHOCKING! And thank God I didn't end up as one of the women!

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are Cloves
You love simple pleasures, and there's no comfort too small for you in this life.

You tend to be a bit of a homebody, and you're okay with that. There is no place cozier than your home.

You may love to kick back, but you're far from dull. You love to engage all of your senses.


You are a deep person, and you appreciate complexity. You immerse yourself in the things you love.
I like cloves. I don't like chai. I really REALLY hate the phrase "chai tea"--it's just like saying "cola soda."

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are Impulsive
You live for the moment, and you're not the type to turn down something that sounds good.

You like to indulge a little, and you don't think there's any shame in enjoying life every day of the year.

You may have an impulsive streak, but you are also very down to earth. You like your pie on the table... not up in the sky!

You may keep to yourself at times, but you enjoy a good conversation - either with friends or with strangers.
I love pie, but if this is pumpkin pie, I'll pass. Otherwise, yes, this is true.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are Purple Headphones
You are a highly imaginative person, and you appreciate music that is a little outside the mainstream.

You value creativity, and you love it when musicians get a little out there with there music. Experimenting is good!

You are highly individualistic, and you prefer musical artists that have a strong voice. Cookie cutter music doesn't appeal you.

You are drawn to music that is very powerful, even if it's not the easiest to understand. You like complexity and meaning.
Actually, no. I like music that's fun and meaningful. I don't like too much experimenting.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are Finland
You have a mysterious charm and allure. People get that you are quite deep, and they struggle to figure you out.

You enjoy your alone time, and you find yourself in solitude. That isn't to say you don't enjoy a raucous night [or day] out on occasion too.

You see life as magical, and you do whatever you can to find your magic in this world. You appreciate art, tradition, and nature.

You are special and unique.
You don't care if anyone can appreciate you - you are happy enough with your delightful quirkiness.
Too bad I can't speak Finnish....
I don't really think I'm that quirky, actually, or deep, or hard to figure out.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Should Visit a Corn Maze
You approach fall with a spirit of adventure... even if that means you may end up getting a little lost.

You like to explore and see what's out there. Every fall is different and unique in its own way.

In general, you tend to be a bucket list type of person. You're all about checking off those unique experiences.

You are open to whatever comes your way. And if you find out something is not for you, at least you tried it out!
I like Corn Mazes, even though they actually make me sick because of the allergies I have. However, most of this description is talking about someone who isn't me.

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Should Write a Memoir
You're the type of person whose life is stranger than fiction... so you might as well write about it!

Your life has been one wild ride - some of it by choice, some of it by circumstance. There's a lot for you to write.

You have a fairly objective and interesting take on your own experiences. No one can tell your story as well as you can.

Your life has been an interesting journey, and you're always learning and doing more.
Who knows? You may have even more than one memoir in you!
Someday, I'll get around to it. Like my dad did. ;-}

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
You Are Beatitudo
You look outward instead of inward for happiness. You are all about what you can do for others.

You feel happy if the people around you are happy. You find that worrying about your own life simply brings you down.

You are a good friend to many
, and a model family member. You always make time for the people in your life.

You are cooperative, not competitive. You believe it could be a much happier world if we just all work together.
Yeah, doing well, till the wheels fell off towards the end.

I have fallen off the wagon of these quizzes. I think it was a formatting issue, but I should check them out and see if the glitch is fixed. They're fun.
