Patrick's Saturday Six Summer's Almost Over Edition


1. What is your current desktop picture?  What made you select it?

It's whatever came with the MAC.  A swirly thing on a field of blue.

2. A close friend who you consider to be up to date on fashion suggests that you should update your look and offers to pay for a session with an experienced hairstylist you've never dealt with before.  Knowing that it's free, would you go?

A free hairdo.  I'm in!!!!!!

3. When you do look in a mirror, what is the first thing you usually look at?

The mirror. To see if it's dirty. So I can clean it. HA!! Like that would happen. I can see if I'm having a bad hair day just fine through all those toothpaste splashes.

4. Take this quiz:  Which Bugs Bunny character are you?

When I saw this I thought I'd better be Wile E. Coyote or my life is ruined.  So you can understand why I laughed out loud when I saw what character I am:

Wile E. Coyote!
You scored 71 aggression, 71 sophistication, 57 optimism

You are intelligent, sophisticated, and the physical personification of the can-do attitude.  No matter how many times something blows up in your face [figuratively or literally] or a prized project collapses around you, you will pick yourself up and try try again. There is a good chance that you are very skilled inproblem solving and would probably make a fine engineer. Your main weaknesses [and this is likely obvious to everyone but yourself] are your overconfidence and complete lack of perspective.  When you inevitably fail at a task [you can't possibly achieve all of the lofty goals you set for yourself] you tend to take it personally.  If you are not careful, you can become thoroughly obsessed with what is not really a very meaty goal.  Try taking a step back from time to time and figure out for yourself if it is really worth it, or if your talents could be best put towards a more rewarding goal.  Also, your desire for things to work out the way you've planned can make you a bit gullible.

It's all true, of course.

5. What label seems to describe you the best as a whole?


Loose cannon. A Rules Are Made To Be Broken Woman. Always have been.  Always will be.

6. READER'S CHOICE QUESTION #60 from Stacy: Is there a specific person that you credit with your successes? and HOW did they help you?

Is this for the Academy Awards or something? All my successes and failures are mine. I get all the credit. And I will take all the blame. Except for parents paying for college and buying me a car for graduation, my life has been spent on my time and my dime.

I have a hilarious comment, but it would violate my no commenting on memes policy.

Mrs. L
I got a little confused with this one.  I always thought these were your STRONG points.  LMAO!  Lack of perspective?  This survey rater obviously has never read one of your advice column posts!
