Here's my result from the new quiz that's going around. Other than not being extroverted, I guess I can live with this ...

Your result for The Remarkably Thorough Harry Potter Character Test...

Molly Weasley

NOT MY DAUGHTER, YOU BITCH!”






You are Molly Weasley, mother of seven children and wife of Arthur Weasley. As the caretaker of so many children, Molly is headstrong, defensive, and caring. She is fiercely loyal to her family and friends, always attending to others’ needs before her own. She can get a little hotheaded at times, especially when somebody breaks her rules. Otherwise, she is practically a saint. You are similar to Molly in the sense that both of you are devoted to your loved ones more than anything else. It is likely that you have your own set of morals and that you have a very clear definition of what is right and what is wrong. People who do not share your views will often get the cold shoulder, but you try your best not to judge too much. As long as you are treated with respect, you welcome new friends into your life with open arms. The one thing that breaks you is stress; it can sometimes turn you into a completely different person. You always realize your mistakes, though, and apologize for any rudeness displayed. No one would ever call you thoughtless or discourteous, and they'd be wrong if they did! On top of being kind-hearted, you are extremely protective, often sticking up for your loved ones more than they even want you to. They may never tell you how much they value you, but you should know that your friendship is truly irreplaceable.



In short, you are more:



Cautious than impulsive


Mature than immature


Modest than arrogant


Normal than weird


Extroverted than introverted




Your polar opposite is Mundungus Fletcher.

Happily lifted from [livejournal.com profile] akatnamedeaster:

Brain Lateralization Test Results
Right Brain (26%) The right hemisphere is the visual, figurative, artistic, and intuitive side of the brain.
Left Brain (72%) The left hemisphere is the logical, articulate, assertive, and practical side of the brain
Are You Right or Left Brained?
Personality Test by SimilarMinds.com


This is something [livejournal.com profile] teddyradiator could confirm. When we were writing together last summer, we used Google Docs, and I made her not only keep a master To-Do list of the chapters, but after about the second draft, all changes to each other's text had to be color-coded.

I think I'm getting more left-brained as I get older.

But if I ever register as a Republican, you have my permission to take away my car keys.

that's going around? Yeah. I filled it out. Well, why not? It amused me! Maybe getting to know more about my home will amuse you, too.

Proceed at your own risk. )

Via [livejournal.com profile] toblass, [livejournal.com profile] kittylefish, [livejournal.com profile] noxiaa and the other cool kids ... I wouldn't have posted it except it's actually pretty accurate!




Your Name is Gray



Your name tells people that you are calm and level headed. Your name makes you seem honest and fair.

You are able to look at things clearly and without emotion. You tend to remain neutral in most disputes.



People see you as reliable and trustworthy. You treat everyone equally, and you don't tend to have any prejudices.

You are naturally calculating and even a bit cunning. You don't like to show your cards too early in the game.

Thanks to some shrewd advice from [livejournal.com profile] mimimanderly, I was able to navigate a website I had heretofore found most trecherous, in order to offer you a glimpse into my true nature. I give you:

The Gadgeteer

14% Elegant, 66% Technological, 40% Historical, 64% Adventurous and 20% Playful!

You are the Gadgeteer, the embodiment of steampunk technology. Ironically, many of the things that most define your style are probably too large to easily carry about, but given the opportunity you would prefer to be seen surrounded by boiler engines, gear-driven calculators, and incredible automata. Of all the steampunk fashion styles, you place the greatest emphasis on technological accessories, and you are the most likely to create elaborate gadgets that are as much a part of your outfit as your clothes. You probably have goggles, but unlike most people you consider them to be for more than decoration. Whereas most people might look odd carrying a satchel of tools around, for you they may well be essential. Above all, you remind everyone that what sets the genre apart from Victoriana is simply the level of technology.

Typing was the single most practical thing I learned in high school. How about you?

Firsts

Ganked from [livejournal.com profile] teddyradiator. I have time now that LML Chapter 31 is beta'd and back with its mummy.

1. Who was your FIRST prom date? A guy named John. I thought I loved him and was sure we'd get married some day. But soon after high school, he came out of the closet, then joined the Moonies, then married a girl ... and then later broke away from the church and started his own cult. Would you say I dodged a bullet?
2. Do you still talk to your FIRST love? –  (See above.) Very rarely. We don't have much in common. Surprising, I know.

More firsts! )

Via [livejournal.com profile] shyfoxling: The Who meme:

Your job is now your Time Lord name.
"The Researcher"! I think it's brilliant. Because you never know what a researcher is really researching, especially when one is staring at you with somewhat myopic fascination. There's a vaguely sinister  quality to the name.

The last digit of your phone number is the current regeneration you are in.
Which phone number? I think I'll use my work number, since it's the lowest: 2.

TARDISThe nearest clothing item to your right is now the most notable item in your current wardrobe.
Here at work, my nearest clothing item is a long, maroon cashmere shawl. I wear it to staff meetings because the meeting room is notoriously cold. It's draped fetchingly over the back of the guest chair when not in use. It sheds and it smells like an old pet. I love it. It will be terribly useful when braving the vagaries of time and space.

The last person you texted is your current companion.
My daughter. She's about to learn how to drive a car, but would switch to a TARDIS in a heartbeat. This could be trouble.

Your favorite word is now your catchphrase.
 My catchphrase is "Not that I'm bitter." It's how I end all my tales of woe. I think it could come in useful as the galaxy's newest Time Lord.

EDIT: I've been asking around, and people say my actual favorite word is "excellent." As in, "Hey, St. Gulik, there's a ticket on your car." "Excellent."

This quiz made me laugh. It not only asked questions about me, it checked to see if I was psychic by asking questions of me about the last person who took the quiz. (I'd like to think I was answering questions psychically about [livejournal.com profile] majorjune, as she is the one I ganked the quiz from. But who knows. Not me. Because I'm only ...)

I am 67% Psychic
I can accurately predict whether someone:
has trolled a website
has had stitches
has eaten brain

I cannot tell whether someone:
can wiggle his/her ears
enjoys fishing
has a cat
See what my psychic predicted for me!

* Thanks and a big *squish*  (whatever that is!) to [livejournal.com profile] rivertempest for sending me a virtual gift of a big blue spider. It was really sweet, my dear! But I still will have to be cleaned up after your current fic is finished ...

* Mugglenet has posted deleted scenes from Deathly Hallows Pt. 2. My dear Lupin shows up for only about 6.5 seconds ... and he's hugging my rival, that detested interloper, Tonks ... but it's totally worth it.

* Yesterday at work, the office craft group got together for lunch. And someone brought along a WIP - an inexplicable affair involving raffia, autumn-colored flowers, a glue gun, and a cinnamon-scented broomstick. I'm sure it's going to be pretty, but at the time, all I could think was, Madame Hooch would never allow scented broomsticks on the Quidditch pitch. I get HP on the brain at odd moments, and I can't confide in anybody but you people.

* Borrowing from [livejournal.com profile] droxy and [livejournal.com profile] savine_snape, I made the above avatar at Anime Me. It actually looks a whole lot like me ... does that mean I have a cartoon face?

Especially if it's about Harry Potter! I've seen this on various pages, but I lifted it from voxangelus.
