I learned something else about you that you didn't write...you get embarrassed when asked sex-u-al questions. *giggle*
As for the novel question...wow. I just do not know how people do that. I am writing a novel. It will be finished in about 200 years. Not even close. I am really impressed by what you have accomplished!

Damn Lucas for opening my mind and warping me into the emotional, verbose dreamer I am today.
I walked ina normal kid, i walked out overwhelmed by my own imagination and what was possible.
Edmund is not for everyone, but im sure you will appreciate the sly and clever mechanisms at work beneath the films surface. Its not a perfect movie by any stretch but it has a substance that sustains me.

Bryn,
You are a sensitive guy, despite your addiction to horror movies. Things touch you on a deep level and you are loyal to the people in your life. You are very pure of heart. You are the sort to scatter rose petals and light candles when your lady has had a bad day...
How did I do?

Comment by The Voices in my Head
The Voices in my Head
You are deeply intellectual, you love a good debate and your passion should not be misconstrued as anger. ( I guess that one I cheated on...*smile*) You are gunshy about relationships. But you are also a keeper...once you find someone you feel you can trust, you are full on. Your idea of a good time is a night in, watching movies and talking. When your girlfriend talks, you actually listen to her...also sentimental.
Rate me...how did I do?

I know you just posted and I am responding quickly but I swear, I just got on here! *smile*
Here is what I learned from your response...
You are very affectionate to those you love. You are opinionated in a strong, self-assured way. You are loyal. There isn't much that gets to you outside of not being able to express yourself in an intellectual and/or creative way. If someone crosses the line with you, they need to step off and reconsider. If someone were to cross your children, that person should ask his/her support network for prayer...lots and lots of prayer. You like tradition but you aren't married to it...you are very open-minded about new things and people but you are also quick to form an opinion any situation. You are usually dead on right...and you know it. *smile*

Yayyyyyyy!
I am glad you are here! Of COURSE you can play!
I would like a strawberry kiwi margarita...GRANDE'! *smile*
*brushing your hair* so, let me tell you what your answers said to me and you tell me if I am right...and then, girl, we need to talk about Brangelina. I have a funny story you might appreciate...
You are a fun loving gal, you enjoy hanging out with your friends, cocktails a plenty *smile* and gabbing...I think you might be afraid of commitment, maybe laughter hides your tears? Keeps people a little at bay? Keeps your heart safe? You are probably very pretty but don't know it. People tend to envy your lightheartedness and grab life by the seat of the pants attitude. Something tells me you are really close to only a select few...the ones who seen you cry a couple of months ago. That isn't a side you show easily to people... You are also much deeper than people think. I think you might be a closet poet but you would never admit that!
How did I do?
OK...onto Brangelina. Not literally on them...this isn't that sort of party, but here's the story:
When Jen and Brad broke up, I posted a sign on my port at work that said: "I categorically deny being the cause of Brad and Jen's breakup. They were already having problems before I came along. I was just the symptom."
Then, when it became apparent that Brad was seeing Angelina, I put up a sign that said, "Brad and Angelina are friends...we want to sway the media focus off of our relationship."
When Brad and Angelina got pregnant, I really had to think fast, so I put up a sign that said, "Brad and I are happy to announce that we are pregnant through a surrogate...Angelina Jolie."
*smile* OH and *WHOMP!* (PILLOW FIGHT!)

I will absolutely be gentle...at brushing your hair *perverted men!* Excuse me, for a moment, my Devi.
HOMER! Stop holding your cigarette up to the sprinkler! You have just gotten us all wet and now we are practically drenched and our nighties are clinging.
*What we women do to make men happy! Re-goddamn-diculous. LOL*
I love brushing your hair...it's soooo pretty. Like, do you use a special conditioner?
*oh my god, I think I have damaged some brain cells. I sound...*gasp* like I am Paris Hilton having a more serious conversation with Britney.*
It's KylieW's fault! It's the margaritas!

Oh. My. God.
I need oxygen. Now.
I always thought something wasn't right...'Brangelina; The Truth'
A close friend of a friend of an enemy says that Brad and Angelina's relationship was just a massive cover-up for the real relationship, "Brad kept talking about Voices in his head and we all thought he was going crazy...Angelina thought he was asking her to marry him, have his baby, etc but he was actually talking telepathically to a woman named Voices..he wanted her to brush his hair and ask him what brand of conditioner he uses..."
I'm outta here. I'm going nuts. Okay...fine...nuttier.

I can't even pretend that I don't know a lot about you already...I know that you are the sort to create your own way to happiness without consulting the social rules book. I know that you have wanderlust. I know that you do a mean karaoke and I know that you are a wonderful mom. I also know that you are a sensual woman with strong convictions and beliefs.
Words I would use to describe you:
Enviable, Enticing, Encouraging, Exciting, Entertaining.

Thanks for stopping by...I see a lot of myself in some of your answers, although I didn't write the same ones. I would say that you are like me, disillusioned with disillusionment. I don't want to go deeper at this point in my life, I want to laugh and be free from some of the things I know. I want to feel magic. I want to see fairies...maybe you do, too?
Let's do something fun! Let's fill up someone's hand with whipped cream and tickle their nose when they are sleeping! LOL
Come on in and have a margarita, any flavor. KylieW makes a mean one! *WHOMP* Hitting you with a pillow!

Here's my answers....
1. How would you describe yourself in five words?
Lovely and amazing, just like the film.
2. If you could sleep with one celebrity, who would it be?
I'd have to say the obvious, Johnny Depp.
3. Where is the one place you would like to live or vacation?
Hmm, sometimes I'd like to live back in England..then sometimes I have visions of living somewhere remote like Iceland or Alaska.
4. Who was the last person you talked to on the phone?
My mum.
5. Who is your favourite author/book?
Depends upon my mood and what's happening in my life. At the moment I'm mesmerised by Perfume by Patrick Suskind. Oscar Wilde is one of my revered poets and authors. I love some classics like Frankenstein, Wuthering Heights and Dracula. I love poetry and am reading some by Leonard Cohen and Pablo Neruda. At the other end of the spectum I love Marian Keyes.
6. What is your favourite song?
I have millions of favourite songs and like authors, it depends on my mood and what is happening in my life. At the moment I'm relishing The Smiths, so I'll say Reel around the Fountain and There is a Light that Never goes Out.
7. What is your favourite colour?
Black and blue, separate or together, I don't mind.
8. What is your favourite meal?
I'm British, anything with chips, preferably double egg, chips and beans....yummm.
9. Would you rather be blind or deaf? Why?
I've thought about this question a lot.....hopefully neither would happen and if it did I hope I have the inner-strength to deal with it and still have a level of peace and happiness. I honestly don't know, if I were deaf, then I would miss out on the beauty of music. But sight is so essential to much of life...
10. What is your favourite ice cream flavour?
Not really into ice-cream..but I love chocolate.
11. What do you do for a living?
Just finished post-grad uni and working part-time as a research writer. I'm always open to any writing-linked opportunities.
20. Finally, the last one! Who is your hero??
Anyone who is lives true to themself and has a sense of humour.

12. Are you working on a novel?
Yes, I started one for my thesis at uni so now I just have to work on having the confidence to say yes, I'm going to finish it and then maybe try and publish it. As you can tell, I'm a bit tentative.
13. What was the last movie you watched?
The Station Agent.
14. What is your favorite holiday?
I love all holidays, but probably Easter. Perfect combination of chocolate, a long weekend with less commercial/monetary obligations than Christmas.
15. What kind of vehicle do you drive?
I mostly use my feet, along with my pooch. But if going further afield I have a Hyundai Excel.
16. Are you a sensualist?
Sometimes, sometimes not. Depends on my mood, like many things...
17. What is the sexiest quality about someone?
Personality, conversation, wit and music collection
18. What is your favorite movie?
It depends on my mood, at the moment it's The Station Agent.
19. When was the last time you cried?
Yesterday, the stupid printer wouldn't work.

Voices - I know exactly what you mean about being disillusioned with disillusionment. Sometimes I delve into the deep, but I don't want to spend all my life there. I want to enjoy myself and be happy as well.

I'm a huge Depeche Mode fan too and I would sell my left toe to have a snog with David Gahan. He's the sexiest beast isn't he? Which is your favourite album? I find it hard to define mine as they are all brilliant and it depends upon my mood, what they represent and memories. I love them and have done for twenty-odd years.

Dave is "the sexiest beast" as you well put it and I had the opportunity, no, the privilege, to see him live in concert this year for the first time in my life!! Have to write a post about that very soon...
My favorite album is "Violator" followed very closely by "Songs of Faith and Devotion". I still think "World in my eyes" is the most perfect song in the world (*smile*).
"Your own, personal, Jesus, someone who hears your prayers, someone who cares...." come on, sing with me...

Alright, lay back on the couch, its time for a bit of analysis.
You are an intellectual. You like nice things, and you enjoy, although you do not need, the status associated with them. If there were no status associated with a certain thing, you would still have them because you like to surround yourself with them, for your own enjoyment. You do not tolerate stupidity well, not of the fun sort but of the genuine lack of overall intelligence. You will make fun of someone like that and often do with your friends. You appreciate kindness. If someone is kind to you, you will repay it. There is also something in your answers which makes me think...and I have no idea why I think this really...but you might take up for the underdog. Something tells me you get pissed off at someone judging a book by its cover...
*shrug* That's what I got...lol

Time for me to analyze...lay back, this won't hurt a bit.
You ARE a sensualist. My guess is that you work a woman like you do the drums...like playing an instrument. Musicians are notoriously good lovers for this reason. I think there is a bit of rock star in you, meaning you know what you want, you feel entitled to it and you go after it. I can picture you socializing a lot but only with people you like. You are loyal and you are passionate.

You have a sense of humor and I would guess that sometimes you might use it like a defense. You are loyal, loyal, loyal...even to those you may not have cause to be loyal to...it's just how you are. You are obviously very caring and a sharp word cuts deeper than a knife with you. You are sentimental and absolutely unapologetic about that. You are very friendly but you are close to a select few.

I must hsve drank too much~ I can't believe I didn't analyze you either.
Your answers, stump me a bit. On the one hand, you feel the need to explain yourself but on the other, you make no apologies, you are just telling it like it is, so I can't decide if you are tentative around people you don't know well, or if you just need to explain why you are right, meaning why you have the opinions you do. You are active, you are a deep person who appreciates beauty. Beautiful people, art, music, scenery...you are definitely a sensualist. I would know that without you answering the question. You are a bit of a dreamer but in a good way. You are intellectual, intense. I would imagine some people are intimidated by you, especially women. You take care of yourself and you are given to moodiness, unpredictable, and fun.
How did I do?

Thanks for your analysis, it's fascinating. Yes, I can be tentative around people I don't know and often fall into justifying myself and my beliefs. This is something I wish I didn't do, I'd like to be more confident in that area. I'm not sure I intimidate women for that reason, but it's an interesting thought and something that I'm going to ponder. Perhaps I do....
I definitely relish beauty, whatever form it might be, nature, peace, people....I try to take care of myself (doesn't always happen!) and yes I do have mood swings (typical Cancerian) and can be unpredictable and fun. I like to laugh, especially when things are tough.
That was fun, thanks!

You are an optimist, although many dark thoughts crowd you every now and then, you still manage to see the positive part.
You follow the rules but sometimes long to break them and just run away somewhere on a desert island with your significant other.
People feel comfortable around you because you are a caring person who likes to help and solve problems by dissecting them until you get to the roots of things. A good secret keeper, others come to you for advice which you give wholeheartedly.
You love mysteries and the little pleasures in life: singing to your favorite tune, having dinner with the family and perhaps writing letters (?).
