MY BLOGINALITYMy Bloginality is ENFP!!!
As an ENFP, you are Extraverted, iNtuative, Feeling , Perceiving.
This makes your primary focus on Extraverted Intuition with Introverted Feeling.
This is defined as a NF personality, which is part of Carl Jung’s Idealist (Identity Seeking) type, and more specifically the Champions or Inspirer.
As a weblogger, you may not be consistant in posts. Although, if you find a specific focus on their journal or a very flexible manner of writing, it may be more fufilling. Because you are warm and see so many posibilities in life, you may inspire others to follow in your footsteps with a journal.
THE ALIENS OF KNOWLEDGEThis is going to sound pretty flaky but, sometimes I image aliens (those little green men type guys) are watching me, recording all the knowledge I gain and will some day turn me off. Well, I’m not sure about the turning off part. I’d prefer to think they’ll just finish this learning project and move along to something else.
I told you it was flaky. Flakier than a single pie crust made with a whole pound of lard. Why do you think I’ve never told anyone else about this?
Today I was looking up a word in the dictionary, it wasn’t even in the dictionary (that’s how smart I’m getting). As I looked I thought about how pleased the aliens would be to learn a new word today. Somedays I wonder if they get bored. I mean, I don’t learn something new and exciting every day.
Maybe, the little things I take for granted are monumental to them. Who knows? Certainly not me. I guess the aliens would know. I have no way to ask them. All our communication is one sided. Of course, they don’t know I’ve caught onto their plot. They think I’m just some sort of education cow, or whatever farm animal seems suitable. I don’t really like to think of myself as any type of bovine. What women does?
I think their ultimate goal is to have all human knowledge. Even stuff like changing light bulbs and shovelling snow. I don’t know what they want to do with all of it. I’ve never really thought about that side effect. But, for now they just keep watch, picking things out of my grey matter. Luckily I’m not a shut in or someone who doesn’t like to read. I also like to explore and experiment, take the odd risk and do things without really thinking them through. I bet they even like that I skim instead of reading every last word.
Does anyone else think they have little aliens in their head, writing down facts and learning English as a second language? Perhaps it’s just me. Few people get these flaky sort of thoughts. I think the aliens put them in my head.

I think I’ll use this for my BackWash column.
POET?According to this I’m a poet. Which is odd because I don’t even like poetry. Not that I never like it, but it’s very rare that I read poetry and come away with anything other than confusion or frustration. I like direct writing, something that says what it means.

Now add up the total number of points.
OVER 60 POINTS: Others see you as someone they should “handle with care”. You’re seen as vain, self-centered,and who is extremely dominant. Others may admire you wishing they could be more like you, but don’t always trust you, hesitating to become too deeply involved with you.
51 TO 60 POINTS: Others see you as an exciting, highly volatile, rather impulsive personality; a natural leader, who’s quick to make decisions, though not always the right ones. They see you as bold and adventuresome, someone who will try anything once; someone who takes chances and enjoys an adventure. They enjoy being in your company because of the excitement you radiate.
41 TO 50 POINTS: Others see you as fresh, lively, charming,amusing, practical, and always interesting; someone who’s constantly in the center of attention, but sufficiently well-balanced not to let it go to their head.They also see you as kind, considerate, and understanding; someone who’ll always cheer them up and help them out.
31 TO 40 POINTS: Others see you as sensible, cautious, careful & practical. They see you as clever, gifted, or talented, but modest. Not a person who makes friends too quickly or easily, but someone who’s extremely loyal to friends you do make, and who expect the same loyalty in return. Those who really get to know you realize it takes a lot to shake your trust in your friends, but equally that it takes you a long time to get over it if that trust is ever broken.
21 TO 30 POINTS: Your friends see you as painstaking and fussy. They see you as very cautious, extremely careful, a slow and steady plodder. It would really surprise them if you ever did something impulsively or on the spur of the moment, expecting you to examine everything carefully from every angle and then, usually decide against it. They think this reaction is caused partly by your careful nature.
UNDER 21 POINTS: People think you are shy, nervous, and indecisive,someone who needs looking after, who always wants someone else to make the decisions & who doesn’t want to get involved with anyone or anything. They see you as a worrier who always sees problems that don’t exist. Some people think you’re boring. Only those who know you well know that you aren’t.
WHAT KIND OF DRAGON ARE YOU?The Ultimate Dragon Quiz
Your Inner Dragon is the embodiment of Nature and the Earth. Greens spend almost all of their time below the canopy or just above the treetops in tropical rain forests. Not a bad life considering every other creature in the forest looks up to you, figuratively and literally. You speak the language of every animal and plant in your domain and know most of them by first name. If people mess with your forests, you’re more than happy to wail on their puny butts. Because of your protector/caretaker role, you are the Earth Elemental dragon.
Naturally your whole life pretty much revolves around the other couple million species you keep an eye on, but that’s not your whole dragon. You also like to impose your steadfast will on others, commune with Nature, and lobby governments for alternative fuels and conservation. Your favorable attributes are Midnight, Winter, gemstones, mountains, caves, soil, respect, endurance, responsibility, prosperity, and purpose in life. Folks shouldn’t get the idea you’re a hippy pushover though, because your breath weapon is a nasty Fire/Acid combination. Maybe you should invest in a hemp shirt reading “Don’t knock my smock, or I’ll clean your clock.” *wink*
KINGDOMALITYTry the Kingdomality test. Who would you be if you were back in the Medieval times?
In the past when I have tried this I was the Bard, the Discoverer and the Ruler. This time I’m the Benevolent Ruler again:
Your distinct personality, The Benevolent Ruler might be found in most of the thriving kingdoms of the time. You are the idealistic social dreamer. Your overriding goal is to solve the people problems of your world. You are a social reformer who wants everyone to be happy in a world that you can visualize. You are exceptionally perceptive about the woes and needs of humankind. You often have the understanding and skill to readily conceive and implement the solutions to your perceptions. On the positive side, you are creatively persuasive, charismatic and ideologically concerned. On the negative side, you may be unrealistically sentimental, scattered and impulsive, as well as deviously manipulative. Interestingly, your preference is just as applicable in today’s corporate kingdoms.
THE THREE EVILSDoesn’t it seem like we are all here, working for our few dollars an hour, to keep the banks, insurance companies and lawyers in silk ties, priceless antiques, custom high rises and money to burn? The government seems to have made it impossible to avoid the three evils. It just makes me so mad!
FAMILY, BANKS AND WRITINGTomorrow night I have a meeting with the owner of HerPlanet, the network that hosts HerCorner. I’m not sure what she wants to talk about. If there is even a plan or if we are just keeping in touch. I know communication and keeping everyone involved is high in importance to Dottie, the owner. I think that’s great. It shows that each of us does matter and has a big part in the whole network.
Anyway, it’s much better than BellaOnline where I was ripped off and then ignored. Bitches! I’ve heard there are new owners there now. But, there is no way I will ever go back and I will never have anything good to say about that organization. They were a pretty shifty bunch, I’d take any rumours about new owners with a bucket of salt.
I sort of re-pierced my ears tonight. The holes have never healed really but it’s been about 20 years since I tried to stick anything through them. Yesterday at the store I noticed a necklace with a birthday fairy and thought it would be cute to give to the girl next door, Jade. It originally came with a matching ring and earrings. But, the ring had been stolen in this package. So, I asked how much it would discount for. Turns out it was down to $2. In my price range. I plan to give the necklace to Jade this Christmas. I was just going to toss out the earrings but they are kind of pretty. Plain and simple but nice: one tiny glittery stone. So, I gave into temptation and took them into the bathroom so I could see which of the holes in my ear looked most promising, and hopefully straight. With a little careful poking they went through. I wondered if at least the back of the holes had healed over but it was no problem to push the poles through. Anyway, I’m wearing them now. Not sure if I will have a problem with them but they are ok so far. I’m sure they aren’t hypo allergenic so I might take them out at some point.
What other flabergasting news do I have….
I’ve been listening to a radio station that promises to play just Christmas/ seasonal music until Christmas comes along. It’s nice, cheery music most of the time. I like hearing the oldies, like Dean Martin. They keep pushing “I Wish I had a River” by Robert Downie Jr. I don’t see the relevance of it as a Christmasy song. I guess he has paid for the air time or some such deal. It’s not a bad song. Kind of strange when you think that he has made a big mess of things. I wonder if he is doing any better for himself. I’m certainly doing better than I was six months ago. I think most of it is littered all over the Bewitching Vagabond column.
Anyway, there’s about all the news anyone could stand to read. My brother is coming back this weekend and my Dad is planning to leave. So, soon I will have the house to myself. At least for a few hours now and then. I won’t have to bother cooking dinner, which is nice. Also, I will do one big clean up day and then I won’t need to worry about house cleaning again. I’m only using three rooms in the whole place. It will be easy enough to keep those going.
I just got the first statement from my US bank that I have seen since the divorce in July. Guess what they have done? Over drawn my account! I have no idea why they did this. Don’t banks usually freeze an account if its a penny over the money in the account? I expected they would. But, for some reason without my knowing anything about it they have my balance in the minus range, by quite a lot! I’m not sure how I will manage this. It’s not like I have any real access to the account now that I’m not in the US. I just keep thinking how strange it is that they let this happen. Also why does Sympatico send me an email about my payment not going through when I emailed them about a month ago to ask that the account be closed. The really ridiculous thing is that the email address they wrote from is the same one I wrote to a month ago. Just proves they don’t read their email.
Well, I plan to do more than blog tonight. There is a ton of stuff I want to do with my personal site and I have to catch up on the BackWash newsletters for Home & Garden and Wordcraft. Kids BW has gotten behind too. I had a good idea for a new erotic story in the Little Chris series for the Adult BW column too. Chris gets tormented in a Santa Claus suit. We’ll see how it goes. If it doesn’t seem to be going anywhere I won’t use it. Just like the car sex idea that wandered off into boring. Someday I’ll find a way to use the original idea. It just wasn’t working that day.
ABONDONED BUILDINGSThese are my best links in the latest update for Bewitching Vagabond at Backwash.
I’ve been a fan of urban exploration/ industrial archeology before I knew it had fancy names. What is the allure of abandoned buildings and whole ghost towns? I think of the people who lived there, grew up there, planted the trees, fixed the hole in the fence, and so on. I guess it’s kind of romantic. I don’t seem to assume that the people who lived before ever had a bad life. I just think of nice things, good times even in hard times.

TOO TIRED TO SPEND MY WINNINGSI was trying to add Blog Chalking here and I’ve somehow screwed up the layout. Now, I’m too tired to keep my brain working on figuring out how to fix it. There is a 1% chance it will fix itself. While I’m sleeping the good fairies will come and in the morning it will be functional and just as good as ever.
Yeah, and the lottery ticket I bought on Thursday really is the big winner of $20 million.
