| What Be Your Nerd Type?
Your Result: Science/Math Nerd
(Absolute Insane Laughter as you pour toxic chemicals into a foaming tub of death!)
Well, maybe you aren’t this extreme, but you’re in league with the crazy scientists/mathmeticians of today. Very few people have the talent of math and science is something takes a lot of brains as well. Thank whosever God you worship, or don’t worship, so thank no deity whatsoever in your case, for you people! Most of us would have died off without your help.

Random Thoughts It’s amazing how much late-night (or really early-morning) advertisements on TV resemble my spam e-mail folder. I’ve already seen two commercials to enhance “that certain part of the male anatomy”, a couple for the “girls gone wild” videos, and another promising large-breasted women.

Memes, Etc. Found this via Sweetie and took it on a wee break from my thesis-writing. I don’t really agree with much of what this says – I think like a conservative?? 0% independent, outgoing and optimistic? There are some flaws in this personality test.
But here are the results…
E2: The Everything Test 2
There are many different types of tests on the internet today. Personality tests, purity tests, stereotype tests, political tests. But now, there is one test to rule them all.
Traditionally, online tests would ask certain questions about your musical tastes or clothing for a stereotype, your experiences for a purity test, or deep questions for a personality test.We’re turning that upside down – all the questions affect all the results, and we’ve got some innovative results too!
Version 2 is leaner, meaner, and features a more mature and varied set of questions than the previous test. Enjoy!

Now… select five people to tag:
Err…not going to tag specific people – if you feel like doing this, just let us know in the comments (or with a trackback).
What were you doing 10 years ago?
Summer, 1997: This was my second summer in New Mexico – my first summer I actually spent at home, but this one I decided to stay in NM, working as a grader and taking a couple of classes. I was in a biology class (I think…Mushi, weren’t you in that with me?) and a ceramics class. I showed up for the bio class, but I think I only attended the ceramics class a couple times. As I recall, it was a pretty good summer. Mushi and I would meet for lunch most days at the alumni fountain, and if it had recently been cleaned, we’d wade in it.
What were you doing 1 year ago?
Same damn thing I’m doing now: working part-time as a contractor, working part-time toward my PhD, biking, going to movies, playing video games, scrapbooking.
Five snacks you enjoy:
- Chips and hummus
- Chocolate, dark, and lots of it!
- Raspberries
- Starbuck’s chai bar
- Flavored chips (especially sour cream and onion)
Five songs you know all the lyrics to:
- “Ghost” by Indigo Girls
- “Don’t Stand So Close to Me” by The Police
- “Defying Gravity” from Wicked
- “Everything You Know is Wrong” by Weird Al
- “They Dance Alone” by Sting
Five things you would do if you were a millionaire:
(I’m assuming several million, as one would go way too fast!)
- Open a scrapbook store
- Pay off the house, car, student loans
- Invest
- Donate to several charities
- Hire a behaviorist for our cats (don’t ask)
Five bad habits:
- Swearing
- Clutter, clutter, clutter
- No taking care of medical problems that aren’t life-threatening (4-year headache, anyone?)
- Procrastinating
- No answering e-mail or returning phone calls (e-mail is just laziness, phone calls ‘cuz I just hate the phone. Hate it hate it hate it. It’s not you’re fault, and I really want to keep in touch, but I had a friend growing up who would spend all day at school with me, and then talk on the phone for *hours* in the evening, and it was impossible to get off the damn phone. Now I just hate the phone.)
Five things you like doing:
- Scrapbooking
- Spending time with Andrew
- Going to the movies
- Finding a new museum or exhibit downtown
- Sitting out on the deck with Ares
Five things you would never wear again:
- Stretch pants
- Knickers (gotta love the 80s!)
- Werid cobbled-together “self-expression” clothes (you’d've had to know me in senior high to know what I’m talking about)
- a thong
- a mini-skirt
Five favorite toys:
- Andrew
- my Cricut
- Zoo Tycoon
- my iPod
- my bike
