Which LOST Character Are You?

I'm excited for Lost to start in a couple of weeks. I took a quiz to find out what character I was most like, and well... this is what came up.


Find out Which Lost Character Are You at LiquidGeneration.com!


I have no idea how this is the description that came to be based on the answers I gave... seriously NO idea.
1. I'm not as tough as Kate
2. I'm not as hot as Kate
3. I'm not a pathological liar
4. Yes, deep down in my heart I am a good person... like most people.

I'm a fighter like Kate - but they don't even mention that. I think this quiz is BS is all I'm saying... but I recommend you take it and let us know who you are like. Just don't let it determine who you are... you could be disappointed.

Overheard

Today I overheard the following conversation:

Woman A: "What do you want to eat for lunch?"
Woman B: " I don't know. What do you feel like?"
Woman A: "Maybe a sandwich from Pacific Whey? Does that sound good??"
Woman B: "Hmmm... I don't know. I really have a craving for something.......... I just don't know what."

Ummm... doesn't that just mean she's hungry?

Confession

Sometimes when I'm driving and I'm following directions, I confuse my lefts and my rights.

The good news is that I always end up figuring out my mistake... sometimes before I even make it!

There. I said it.

A Letter to a Celebrity

Dear Tyra,

You are really annoying.
I will admit though that America's Next Top Model would not be the same without you. And I think you have good intentions... I like that about you.

Have a great day,
Andrea

side note - if any of you readers are a mommy, my sister has a question for you at her blog. Could you help her please?

My Daily Entertainment

I am a grammar/vocabulary freak... it's one of few things that I'm anal about. I'm not saying I'm better than anyone else, I'm just saying mistakes in this area stand out at me even when I make them. Typically I don't correct people - I give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they just messed up. However, I work with someone that is clearly not as anal as I am and has a hard time in this area. I've started correcting her because she says it's okay to... and I gently let her know. But inside I am sometimes DYING laughing... it's so entertaining (in the nicest way possible). Here are a few things she says regularly:
  • Futuristically - meaning: thinking ahead
  • It's a Christmas reef - instead of wreath
  • "He totally threw a conipshit" - instead of conniption fit
  • "I've already aten" - instead of eaten
  • "After I got my hair did..." - instead of done
  • Tooken - instead of 'taken' or 'took' (and when i tried to explain the correction, she didn't know what "past tense" meant)
  • "He's very family-orientated" - instead of -oriented
  • It's a Good Samariman - instead of Samaritan
  • Anytime she sees "misc." she reads it as "mystic" (no lie!)
  • (*) is an astridge - instead of asterisk
  • She recently said "Why is this the first year they're doing a cackus?" - instead of a caucus (and we had to tell her that caucuses have existed for decades!)
  • She can't wait to see the movie, Entonement - instead of Atonement
  • Tastistic - instead of statistic
  • I don't even know how to spell how she says "wheel barrow"
  • She just started eating bre-fast - instead of breakfast
  • She always says stuff like "I've been trippin on the internet and came across..." or "hey, wanna bust a lunch?"
  • I must mention that she consistently calls me "homey" "sista" "dude" "girlfriend" "g"

Again, she says these all the time - over and over - correcting doesn't work. Here's the best part of all: her job title is Communications Manager. Yep!

Let me also add: she's great and I like her as a person.
