Four More Things You Never Knew About Me

While I was looking through these pages, it hit me that I've been blogging here since June 2006. That's a little over six years now! Wow! I didn't know I had that much to say.

As I was reading, I came across a post I did on 3 September 06 called Four Things You Never Knew About Me. Interesting reading, even if I do say so myself.

Upon reading, I thought, wow, the more things change, the more some things stay the same. And how some things have changed quite a bit. So I thought I'd offer Four MORE Things You Never Knew About Me. And, as before, at the bottom, I'll tag four more people to take up this challenge.

Now add up your points and find out the answer you have been waiting for!

(10-16) You are Garfield:
You are very comfortable, easy going, and you definitely know how to have fun but sometimes you take it to an extreme. You always know what you are doing and you are always in control of your life. Others may not see things as you do, but that doesn't mean that you always have to do what is right. Try to remember, your happy spirit may hurt you or others.

(17-23) You are Snoopy:
You are fun, you are very cool and popular. You always know what's in and you are never are out of style. You are good at knowing how to satisfy everyone else. You have probably disappeared for a few days more than once but you always come home with the family values that you learned. Being married and having children are important to you, but only after you have had your share of fun times.

(24-28) You are Elmo:
You have lots of friends and you are also popular, always willing to give advice and help out a person in need. You are very optimistic and you always see the bright side of things. Some good advice: try not to be too much of a dreamer. Dreaming too big could cause many conflicts in your life.

(29-35) You are Sponge Bob Square Pants:
You are the classic person that everyone loves. You are the best friend that anyone could ever have and never wants to lose. You never cause harm to anyone and they would never not understand your feelings. Life is a journey, it's funny and calm for the most part. Stay away from traitors and jealous people, and you will be stress free.

(36-43) You are Charlie Brown:
You are tender, you fall in love quickly but you are also very serious about all relationships. You are a family person. You call your Mom every Sunday. You have many friends and may occasionally forget a few Birthdays. Don't let your passion confuse you with reality.

(44-50) You are Dexter:
You are smart and definitely a thinker... Every situation is fronted with a plan. You have a brilliant mind. You demonstrate very strong family principles. You maintain a stable routine but never ignore a bad situation when it comes. Try to do less over thinking every once in a while to spice things up a bit with spontaneity!

Guess which cartoon character I turned out to be! No surprise that when the DH took the test he turned out to be Elmo! Makes me want to tickle him ;-)

Yeah, yeah, I know. So little time on Earth and SO many stupid internet quizzes. I hope you had fun with this anyway.
