The Jung Personality Questionnaire? Nope, I haven't. Sadly, I think it would not be a particularly freaky read in my case. Maybe some time spent in a desert would fix that :)


TPBM will enlighten me as to which book Simon was really talking about.

I PREFER TO HOLD THE SHIFT KEY WITH MY PINKY WHILE TYPING IN ALL CAPS. That way, I can really feel the intensity, ya know?

TPBM prefers to use lowercase and really big fonts.

I often don't capitalize proper nouns--blame it on the Bauhaus--and I do like small fonts--as some here know--but I rarely, um what were we talking about?

I've had it and have enjoyed it, but I wouldn't say I seek it out. To be honest, anything with melted (real) cheese is a.o.k. with me. I'm trying to find some raclette for the hof - do.

tpbm know whether I am using gratinee correctly with regards to french onion soup. it just popped into my head.

it's only 5:30... and no. but I do need to hydrate some. I'm just not a thirsty type and in the evenings I have to do the math and top off on the water.

tpbm always thinks they can pack faster than they actually can.

The steak was great! The pulled pork looked a little aged, so I didn't touch that. So far so good on the steak.

It's isn't for us...we only have one decent Chinese joint in our area. Hell it took me months to find an actual Dim Sum one.

No. I just wonder how you keep them all straight --- er, sorted.

TPBM is struggling to choose between the fabulous-but-uncomfortable shoes and the boring-but-practical ones. Why not one of each?
