What would you do? A quiz/survey!

Please vote in the quiz! I am curious to know how many people read somewhat regularly! Your answer will not be graded...

So pretend you've been in this relationship for approximately 3.5 years. Approximately. And you live quite a distance from the person with whom you are in this relationship. It has been a rough year. You both have a lot of things to worry about with your careers. Travel is complicated because it's sorta close enough to drive, sorta easier to fly,but regardless of how you travel you lose most of a day. You have to worry about out when to see each other and also family or friends or your visa status or doing laundry or your cat or washing your hair.

After briefly conversing about holiday options, you send an email suggesting that your relationship partner gave you the "cold shoulder" about Thanksgiving and also write about some visa stuff. (As in the I'm-a-foreigner-Visa, not I-need-a-credit-card-visa. TOTALLY hypothetical, like I said.) In response, the other person tried to call on his/her way home later that night, then writes back about why they have not given input, but also makes a statement that, "I just got home and want to relax in front of the tv with some tea before going to bed, so if you feel like talking on the phone for a change tomorrow night, let me know."

What would you do?

If the end of an email you received said, "if you feel like talking on the phone for a change tomorrow night, let me know," would you:
	have another beer and forget you read the email.
	call right away and be apologetic and ready to talk.
	call the next night at an hour between dinner and, oh, A Charlie Brown Christmas.
	(Silence)
	email right back and suggest a time.
	wonder who this person is who seems so annoyed by your inability to communicate and delete the email
	send some other communication but don't let on that you saw that email.

There are a couple of options that are more (hypothetically) life-like than the others. Do you pick what you would actually do or what you think someone in this simply hypothetical situation would do? Either way, it's getting late and I can't wait up hoping you'll call...I mean vote...





[As an aside, it is fun to go back and look at tags I have not used in a while! I learned something about my younger self by reading posts from 4 years ago. Funny, that.]

Personality quiz

I saw this over at Ron's. Who doesn't like a good quiz full of random questions that tells you all about you? Some is true; some is not. :-)

Seeing the world

I am not sure I like the greedy and selfish part at the end, but otherwise this seems pretty true. Admittedly, I do sometimes feel selfish though. I do love money...I would love to have more of it (stupid graduate school).

You See the World Through Green Colored Glasses

You live your life with generosity. You feel like your life is abundant, and you are very giving toward those around you. You judge all your interactions through the lens of harmony. You figure you have something to learn from everyone, and you listen well. You face challenges with a persistent attitude. You can see the prize at the end of the road, and you have the strength to get there. You see love as the utmost expression of self-esteem. You have to love yourself before you can truly love someone else. At your worst, you are greedy and selfish. You love money more than you'd like to admit. You are happiest when you are in nature. You appreciate the feeling of balance that being outdoors brings you.

What Color Glasses Do You See the World Through?

Green is a nice color

Your Mind is Green

Of all the mind types, yours has the most balance. You are able to see all sides to most problems and are a good problem solver. You need time to work out your thoughts, but you don't get stuck in bad thinking patterns. You tend to spend a lot of time thinking about the future, philosophy, and relationships (both personal and intellectual).

What Color Is Your Mind?

The part about needing time is pretty true. And I don't get stuck in bad thinking because after a week, I am "good" again.

My kind of quiz!

[Sadly, my internet at home is funky. This should be interesting when I want to post!]

Spark had this quiz up the other day. In addition to finding online quizzes slightly addictive, I particularly liked how some of the questions were asked. It is like my long-lost twin wrote them...or one of my other personas.

One of the questions was, "Do you keep a to-do list? (tasks, not people)" [See my #52 here.]

THEN it said if you have STDs to click on a link...that takes you to match-dot-com. [NOTE: I did not contract any STDs while partaking in online dating.]

This was my kind of quiz! Here are my results.

The Maid of Honor Deliberate Gentle Love Master (DGLM) Appreciated for your kindness and envied for all your experience, you are The Maid of Honor. Charismatic, affectionate, and terrific in relationships, you are what many guys would call a "perfect catch"--and you probably have many admirers, each wishing to capture your long-term love. You're careful, extra careful, because the last thing you want is to hurt anyone. Especially some poor boy whose only crime was liking you. We've deduced you're fully capable of a dirty fling, but you do feel that post-coital attachment after hooking up. So, conscientious person that you are, you do your best to reserve physical affection for those you respect...so you can respect yourself. Your biggest negative is the byproduct of your careful nature: indecision. You're just as slow rejecting someone as you are accepting them. Your exact female opposite: Half-Cocked Random Brutal Sex Dreamer Always avoid: The False Messiah (DBLM), The 5-Night Stand (DBSM), The Vapor Trail (RBLM), The Bachelor (DGSM) Consider: The Gentleman (DGLM), someone just like you.

A Prophet Soul

I saw this over at Squirl's, which was convenient because I needed some inspiration to post before I head off to tutoring with my fingers crossed that my fever doesn't come back so I can get a good night's sleep...

You Are a Prophet Soul

You are a gentle soul, with good intentions toward everyone. Selfless and kind, you have great faith in people. Sometimes this faith can lead to disappointment in the long run. No matter what, you deal with everything in a calm and balanced way. You are a good interpreter, very sensitive, intuitive, caring, and gentle. Concerned about the world, you are good at predicting people's feelings. A seeker of wisdom, you are a life long learner looking for purpose and meaning. You are a great thinker and communicator, but not necessarily a doer. Souls you are most compatible with: Bright Star Soul and Dreaming Soul
