You Are Vitamin A |
 You see the world vividly. You are a very visual person, and you pay special attention to colors. |
It's late at the moment; I just watched Ashton Kutcher reach1 million followers on Twitter -- on Twitter and on Ustream. Fascinating social media event, and @aplusk is more charming than I anticipated. Someone tweeted that it will be interesting to see SNL's spoof on this event. Good point.
Here's a quiz asking of you are "dusk or dawn." I could really be either. I don't think the description matches me completely, but perhaps my results are skewed since I took the quiz so late in the evening. If you'd like to take the quiz, too, just click on the link underneath the summary.
| You Are Dawn |
 You hate to waste any time, and you jump out of bed in the morning ready to face the world. You enjoy working and have a fulfilling career. For you, nothing feels better than the sweet victory success. You are goal oriented and successful in every aspect of your life. You're universally ambitious. |
The weather was cold and wet this past weekend, but temperatures are warmer this week. Still a sign that spring is here. Here's a fun quiz from Blogythings. To find out what part of spring you are, click the link underneath the summary.
| You Are Blooming Flowers |
 You feel truly blessed in life and can sometimes be overwhelmed with emotions. You have an artist's eye. You are always looking for beauty in the mundane. You have a good sense of aesthetics, especially when it comes to shapes and color. |
St. Patrick's Day is still several days away, but this was a quick quiz to take. Plus, by the time most read this post, I'll have changed the decor at Seasons for All from blue to green. I was going to wait until the spring equinox, but since daylight savings time begins so early this year, so will the green.

 Sometimes you find thinking creatively to be a challenge. You prefer to deal with the facts at hand. You don't really consider yourself a lucky person. In your view, people create their own luck. You are traditional, easy going, and appreciative of the simple things in life. |
I couldn't resist. Jo-Lynne was helping me freshen up my sister's blog and I stopped in to read her musings. She had taken this quiz and I was curious to know "who I am." I answered only two questions and most of the description is pretty accurate!
You are a Jackie. "I do everything the right way."
Jackies are realistic, conscientious, and principled. They strive to live up to their high ideals.
How to Get Along with Me
* Take your share of the responsibility so I don't end up with all the work.
* Acknowledge my achievements.
* I'm hard on myself. Reassure me that I'm fine the way I am.
* Tell me that you value my advice.
* Be fair and considerate, as I am.
* Apologize if you have been unthoughtful. It will help me to forgive.
* Gently encourage me to lighten up and to laugh at myself when I get uptight, but hear my worries first.
What I Like About Being a Jackie
* Being self-disciplined and able to accomplish a great deal
* Working hard to make the world a better place
* Having high standards and ethics; not compromising myself
* Being reasonable, responsible, and dedicated in everything I do
* Being able to put facts together, coming to good understandings, and figuring out wise solutions
* Being the best I can be and bringing out the best in other people
What's Hard About Being a Jackie
* Being disappointed with myself or others when my expectations are not met
* Feeling burdened by too much responsibility
* Thinking that what I do is never good enough
* Not being appreciated for what I do for people
* Being upset because others aren't trying as hard as I am
* Obsessing about what I did or what I should do
* Being tense, anxious, and taking things too seriously
Jackies as Children Often
* Criticize themselves in anticipation of criticism from others
* Refrain from doing things that they think might not come out perfect
* Focus on living up to the expectations of their parents and teachers
* Are very responsible; may assume the role of parent
* Hold back negative emotions ("good children aren't angry")
Jackies as Parents
* Teach their children responsibility and strong moral values
* Are consistent and fair
* Discipline firmly

Here's a fun quiz from Blogthings: What Christmas tree are you? I'm not surprised with my results -- no aqua and orange ornaments for me, thank you. Even if you don't celebrate Christmas, it may be fun to play along.
