A house is not a home (the Alan Wrench Blues!)

So after being in this apartment for a little over a two week period, I've finally gotten the basics more or less nailed down. Mixed unsorted laundry is still on the floor, there's a sense of general half-assery about the kitchen and fridge, and the bedroom looks like the aftermath of a Jc Penny's/Hot Topics/Borders explosion. But after a belated trip to Ikea (cheap swedish shit for j00!) and the begrudginge realization that if I am to pay rent for a place, I might as well actually be -comfortable- in it, I've nailed down the basics. Coffee Machine, Computer desk, and phone line. Yes! I no longer need to live like a heathen and watch my net porn archives from de floor! Loe I have risen up and can now squat/slouch like a man! Yar! Next stop? Prettfying the Drew hole. Cause damn these walls need posters. :p





Your Dominant Intelligence is Linguistic Intelligence



You are excellent with words and language. You explain yourself well.
An elegant speaker, you can converse well with anyone on the fly.
You are also good at remembering information and convicing someone of your point of view.
A master of creative phrasing and unique words, you enjoy expanding your vocabulary.

You would make a fantastic poet, journalist, writer, teacher, lawyer, politician, or translator.





Eh... maybe.



The Keys to Your Heart



You are attracted to those who are unbridled, untrammeled, and free.

In love, you feel the most alive when your lover is creative and never lets you feel bored.

You'd like to your lover to think you are stylish and alluring.

You would be forced to break up with someone who was arrogant, acting like the dictator of your life.

Your ideal relationship is comforting. You crave a relationship where you always feel warmth and love.

Your risk of cheating is zero. You care about society and morality. You would (almost) never break a commitment.

You think of marriage as something that will confine you. You are disdainful of marriage.

In this moment, you think of love as commitment. Love only works when both people are totally invested in it.




Slightly edited to be less then total bullshit. Can you guess where?


The Expatriot
Achtung! You are 15% brainwashworthy, 31% antitolerant, and 9% blindly patriotic

Congratulations! You are not susceptible to brainwashing, your values
and cares extend beyond the borders of your own country, and your Blind
Patriotism ("patriotism" for short) does not reach unhealthy levels. In Germany in the 30s, you would've left the country.




One bad scenario -- as I hypothetically project you back in time -- is
that you just wouldn't have cared one way or the other about Nazism.
Maybe politics don't interest you enough. But the fact that you took
this test means they probably do. I'm gonna give you the benefit of the
doubt.


Did you know that many of the smartest Germans departed prior to the
beginning of World War II, because they knew some evil shit was
brewing? Brain Drain. Many of them were scientists. It is very possible
you could be one of them, depending on your age.



Conclusion: Born and raised in Germany in the early 1930's, you would not have been a Nazi.



My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:

Y'know.. I'm about two steps shy of fleeing now...


Hopefully I'll be able to get to posting fresh quizzes soon, thanks.

and maybe we will see you on wednesday for pokey bits. ^_^

Yup! This will happen! I'm home with the sniffles now though.

I want to see your apartment...now!

Eh, give it a few months to slowly build up to the hosting/jump-off point I expect it to become. At the moment, at the very least I need to bow down and get the damn futon frame so I can have a sort-off sofa in this place.

Hosting my...I just want to be there :P

Come on over! I'll make room and clean up for you. But will I let you leave afterwards is the question? MWaaahahahahaaahahaha (*cough!* ooo, spooky)

ROFL...It'd depend on the day(s) I suppose *evil grin*. As soon as I have a car to myself, the sky's the limit. Well, where you are, anyway.

Mmm, basics = goodness. And if your bedroom has to look like some sort of explosion, that's definitely a good mix of stores the explosion looks like.

Glad you're sorta settling in there. Let me know when you want some company! I'm heading up to the Seattle area (more specifically, Bremerton/Silverdale/Kitsap Co.) later this month. If'n you wanna hang out sometime, let me know.

I'd like that, but I'm not sure on the how's and where's of getting that done. We'll make it work somehow though. Get yer butt up heah!
