Wind Blows Deeply

Thanks to the fact that I decided to unplug my TV last night, I had to entertain myself somehow today. And what a better way than to find quizzes on the internet! So, naturally, I headed off to the haven of girlie quizes – Chatelaine. I took two quizzes — Flirting Style and The Perfect Mate.

So I realize you are all dying to know, so I won’t leave you in any further suspense.

Regarding flirting style, my “score indicates [I am] a reserved flirt” …
Being subtle and demure has always been your chosen method of seduction. You prefer to let a guy know you’re interested with a soft smile, light touch or meaningful glance and then leave it up to him to take it to the next level.
While some men see your quiet charm as sexily sophisticated, others might back off because they don’t think you’re interested.

Regarding my mate, it would appear that my best bet is rocket scientist …
You prefer someone who will never stop challenging your intellect. He’s smart and independent and is on a constant search for knowledge. His tastes are eclectic󦲯m Sci-fi to fine art, you never know what he’s going to get into. Discovering things together is stimulating and quenches your thirst for self-discovery.

Ok, ok — so it’s not all that revealing. Actually, I sound very much like my perfect mate – perhaps the eclectic attract?!? Ah well, have a good afternoon.

PS – I (finally) start my new job tomorrow. I write all about it in the next post.

I went blog hopping today. I went to read up on Jeremy‘s recent happenings and then meandered over to catch a glimpse of April.

And, lo and behold, a post about Mister God, This is Anna … one of my favorite books. Remarkable really, for not many people I run into have ever heard of this book. It is (C) 1974, and for that reason has probably faded out of existence in the memories of people once familiar with it (although, once read, it tends to stick with one’s self). Fynn (a pseudonym, and despite efforts, I have not been able to uncover more about the author) has also written several other books. Anna, Mister God, and the Black Knight, which I have read, and Anna’s Book, which I have not.

The two books that I have read have challenged my view of God and the box into which I had entrapped Him. The whole childlike enthusiasm and excitement and wonder which Fynn portrays is utterly amazing.

So I figured I’d look around at blogs I’ve ‘ignored’ for a while, and ended up at Chris’ blog. He’s got a good suggestion regarding not using Internet Explorer. I’ve known this for some time (thanks to my little bro’), but I finally made the move over to Firefox. For those of you who are not so technologically savy – not to worry – you won’t have to learn a new system. (Plus, it blocks all those nasty pop-ups for you.)
