What Your Soul Really Looks Like

You are a wanderer. You constantly long for a new adventure, challenge, or eve a completely different life. You are a grounded person, but you also leave room for imagination and dreams. You feet may be on the ground, but you're head is in the clouds. You believe that people see you for how you are, not how you look. But deep down, you know that's not exactly true. Your near future is in a very different place (both physically and mentally) from where you are right now. For you, falling in love is all about flirting and feeling playful. You couldn't fall in love with someone who took life too seriously.

Saturday night Scott was washing dishes while I was changing litterboxes in the laundry room just off the kitchen. I heard him make a noise, the chinking of the dishes stopped for a second, then, "I don't know what the fuck that is, but it looks distinctly like something of yours."

I went into the kitchen & peered into the sink. A largish, wet blob lay in the bottom of the basin. I didn't know what the fuck it was either, and I wasn't about to touch it. I said as much. "Just wash it down the drain or something." I returned to the litter boxes then trotted back out to where Scott was still regarding the unwelcome flotsam & snatched it out of the sink & threw it in the garbage. "I remember now - it's a bit of moss from the orchid!" Then back to the laundry room.

Then I heard, "Well?? I was right, wasn't I? Nothing that I would eat would have something like THAT come off it."

Thanx, T! :)

You Are a Seeker Soul

You are on a quest for knowledge and life challenges. You love to be curious and ask a ton of questions. Since you know so much, you make for an interesting conversationalist. Mentally alert, you can outwit almost anyone (and have fun doing it!). Very introspective, you can be silently critical of others. And your quiet nature makes it difficult for people to get to know you. You see yourself as a philosopher, and you take everything philosophically. Your main talent is expressing and communicating ideas. Souls you are most compatible with: Hunter Soul and Visionary Soul

What Kind of Soul Are You?

The rain in Spain falls mainly on the plain.

You're Spain!

You like rain on the plain, as well as interesting architecture and
a diverse number of races and religions.  You like to explore a lot, but sailing,
especially in large groups, never really seems to work out for you.  Beware of pirates
and dictators bearing bombs.  And for heavens' sake, stop running around bulls!
 It's just not safe!

What Type of Writer Should You Be?

Zzzzzzzzzzz.....

What Your Sleeping Position Says

You are calm and rational. You are also giving and kind - a great friend. You are easy going and trusting. However, you are too sensible to fall for mind games.

What Does Your Sleeping Position Say About You?

Damned if you do, damned if you don't.

You're Catch-22!

by Joseph Heller

Incredibly witty and funny, you have a taste for irony in all that you
see. It seems that life has put you in perpetually untenable situations, and your sense
of humor is all that gets you through them. These experiences have also made you an
ardent pacifist, though you present your message with tongue sewn into cheek. You
could coin a phrase that replaces the word "paradox" for millions of
people.

You're a Cheetah!

You are fast. Really fast. So fast, in fact, that many people may
never see you as you pass them by. You definitely have your soft spots, or maybe
just a lot of spots in general. You'd like to think of them as freckles. When
others say your name very quickly, you think they're accusing you of
something.

Sticking Around

This morning I looked out & Lo! the four cranes were back out a the sinkhole. As glad as I was to see them, I was sincerely hoping they were moving on to warmer climes. If there was a sick or injured one to begin with, maybe it wasn't well enough to travel with the flock & they came back to their safe spot. Or, maybe they just like the scenery. Nothing like a barren field in the middle of winter with a frozen mudhole!

I still wonder why the whole darn herd came in last weekend! And how did they find each other?

Animals - what a weird, wild world.
