Quiz answers

[mamagotcha]

Just in case you haven't taken the test, you can go do that first then come back for the answers.

1. Santa brought what I asked for! What was it?
a. Diamond earrings
b. Tortoiseshell combs for my hair
c. A pair of Uggs
d. A funny copy editor's yoga shirt

I'm not a big one for stones, O. Henry's story isn't one I want to emulate, and while I wouldn't mind the shirt, it wasn't top on the list. I lurve my Uggs!

2. What do I say when someone asks me what my favorite color is?
a. Lavendar blue, dilly dilly
b. Black and rainbow
c. The colors of whatever university accepts Julia
d. My carpet when it's clean

My mom's favorite color is lavendar, of course I'll wear whatever Julia's alma mater colors are, and I have no idea what color my carpet really is. But if I could dress in black and rainbow tie-dye year-round, I would!

3. One of my all-time favorite comfort foods is...
a. Homemade popcorn with lots of real butter and salt
b. Mashed potatoes with cream and celery salt
c. Oddly enough, Brussels sprouts (very lightly braised)
d. Corn dogs from the state fair

Popcorn! Mmmmm... think I need a bit right now, in fact!

4. My idea of heaven would be:
a. A date with Orlando Bloom
b. A trip to Amsterdam
c. Riding an elephant
d. Getting locked into the Scharffen Berger factory overnight

Oh, man... I'm feeling giddy...

5. My older kids are on LJ. What are their usernames?
a. gaijingaloot, purple1, DMsr0x0r
b. answer42, beautifulmind, nochocolate4wiley
c. KCotaku, tenebrousmuffin, offthehighdive
d. justme8800, jedusor, and g4n0nd0rk

No Chocolate for Wiley is a band name rubrick chose for us aeons ago. Now all we have to do is come up with the band...

6. What have I NOT done? (but would like to!)
a. Juggle on a stage, braid hair longer than 5', knit hats for all my kids
b. Make a peyote stitch bead necklace, drum to a trance state, (something else I can't remember)
c. Take flight lessons, write a novella, run a funky B&B or game store
d. Farmers' market manager, associate editor of a magazine & newspaper, (something else I can't remember)

I doubt I'm ever going to get into the air (lack of money and too fat), but I could conceivably wind up writing something or doing the B&B or gamestore someday. Stay tuned and find out!

Did anybody guess the Brussels sprouts?

I didn't register and do the test for real, so I have to recollect my answers, but I think I got them all except the last one. I couldn't decide between C and D, and I wasn't thinking it through clearly to enough to remember that I knew you'd already been an associate editor!

ha ha ha. I took the test, but didn't want to register. I missed #3. I did not guess brussel sprouts. While brussel sprouts may be tasty, i don't think they qualify as comfort food.
