Tell Me Something I Don't Know

You Are Lavender

You are a sweet person with a very soft personality.
People become easily entranced with you. They seem to glow around you.
You have a quiet energy that can keep you active late into the night.
Even if you aren't the life of the party, you definitely keep the party going.


Don't try to reconcile the loud Lamborghini me with this. Your brain will seep out of your ears. Just know that they are both true.

A Progressive Woman

Back in March I mentioned running across a promo for the Hostess Race Divas in the grocery store. I've had the Race Divas as one of my alternating desktop wallpapers for awhile. I revisited the website last week and followed the link to Leilani Munter's website and made a very happy discovery on her blog. Leilani is a progressive!! That minister who fired a female Sunday school teacher because, "I do not permit a woman to teach or to have authority over a man; she must be silent"? Leilani ran down ALL of his contact information so that, well, I'll let her tell you. "Keeping in mind that Tim thinks women should remain silent, I gathered all of Tim's contact information so you, like me, can let Tim know how you feel." Yep, go to the blog to get his contact information. (I don't want to deprive Leilani of hits - and new fans.)

And how can you not love her personal slogan? RACE HARD. PLAY HARD. NAP HARD. You got it, sister. Now I want to go drive fast somewhere...
You Are 47% Impulsive

You're quite impulsive, but you never are reckless.
You qualify as a very spontaneous person, but you still know how to honor your commitments.
And while responsibility doesn't come easy to you, having fun does!

Zen Noir

Sometimes you come across an idea that is so perfect you almost can't breathe. For me, Zen Noir is that idea. (Weird, but true.)
A nameless detective, still mourning the loss of his wife, investigates a mysterious death in a Buddhist temple, but his logical, left-brained crime-solving skills are useless in the intuitive, non-linear world of Zen.

... the Detective’s logical mind is thwarted at every turn by his suspects' Zen thinking...

Detective: Where were you at the time of the murder?

Monk: What exactly do you mean by time?

Increasingly confused and unnerved, haunted by his dead wife’s ghost, and with his investigation going nowhere, the Detective finds himself drawn into a deeper, darker, more personal mystery, where he must confront terrifying questions about love and loss, which lead to a startling realization: the mystery he's there to solve isn't a murder at all, but the mystery of death itself.
You can check it out on IMDB and up the film's stats.
