Does it make me an alcoholic if I was going to write in my blog and go to bed but decided I want a glass of wine with that blog? It IS 4:30am... technically 5:30am since the clocks went back...

Roomie was telling me about this great personality test she took on line (http://www.kwml.com) and how the personalities are grouped into titles like warrior or king. It takes 15minutes. I'm going to do it right now.... as soon as I put my pjs on and get out of these stupid bartending clothes. Please. Don't let the suspense kill you.
5 minutes later....

Confident, competitive, and analytical, you are a fierce and steady protector of your friends, family, and all things you hold dear. You're extremely ambitious, targeted, and determined—almost to a fault of being self-centered—and are an undeniable force of industriousness.
While you're logical, orderly, and respect the rules like the King and Queen, you're much more assertive and always ready to dive into action or conflict. Because you prefer to be somewhat isolated, you tend to have few very good friends, but these friends definitely count on you whenever there's a task to be done with precision.
Location on the cognitive-emotional spectrum
Located in the lower left quadrant of this spectrum, your personality reflects your strong emotional sense of confidence. Your style of thinking tends to be more left-brained— logical, sequential, rational, and objective.

Attractions
Located on the other end of the spectrum, your perfect opposite is a nurturing and creative Lover.

Quick read
To find out if someone is a Lover, get their attention by speaking softly and touching them lightly, perhaps on the shoulder. Then say "I can tell you have a lot of feelings and stories to share. Can you tell me one?" If they light up and respond to your emotional sensitivity, you have found a Lover. You've also given that person exactly the positive emotional energy they need.

Advice
"Give up the battle to win the war:" Dare to be occasionally weak to be seen as "real" to others and find that enemies can become friends if you let them have a bit of the power.

Umm...Can we just talk about the "Quick Read"?.. Because if someone came up to me and whispered "I can tell you have a lot of feelings to share, can you tell me one?" while gently touching me, I'd bag them and run before they put me in the back of their rape van with all of the other 26 year olds that look like they're 17... just sayin'. And if that is your advice KWML, I will be single forever.
Also, if I'm 38.5% lover, and the opposite end of the spectrum is my lover match, doesn't that mean that lover is not my match? Just sayin.. the lover type seems kind needy and a little weak and I would just like to say that I write (youuuu'rrrre reading it!) and write poetry and I make people laugh (it's my thing). So wait.. my love match is kind of like me but way more "intuned"?.. Aren't those people annoying? I don't get it. Still going to be single forever.
And while they summary of moi was kind of accurate, it was a 1/4 chance so it's not that amazing of a test....
But for your information:
Like the greatest rulers in history, Kings and Queens bring people together with knowledge and nurturing
Protective, orderly, and wise, Kings and Queens are disciplined leaders and excellent advisors who like to make and play by the rules. While they prefer to oversee and issue commands without necessarily being the ones to carry them out, they're also very compassionate and nurturing—sometimes to a fault of being passive. Lovers of learning characterized by wisdom, Kings and Queens enjoy giving advice and others often seek it from them.
At their best within the confines of their own "castle," Kings and Queens prefer that which is safe, secure, and known. No surprise then that they're most comfortable interacting one-on-one with those they love or want to know better, and that their confidence looses steam in new situations.
At the center of celebration and spectacle, Magicians inspire us with confidence and delight
Creative, adventurous, and energetic, Magicians are the life of the party and people are naturally drawn to their spirit and confidence. They often inspire awe with their magical ability to multitask and exercise "street smarts." Not only do they dream big, Magicians actually make those dreams happen. Because they're naturals at making things happen that would seem impossible to most others, Magicians do especially well in performance and sales roles.
While Magicians are full of emotional confidence like the Warrior, they're much more outgoing and outlandish, which often puts them at the center of celebration and spectacle.
With a gift for art and mystery, Lovers share a deeper meaning and vision of the world
Creative, intuitive, and deeply caring, Lover's minds and spirits are open and capable of expressing deep meaning in the world. They represent the artists and idealists of society—the romantics, the insightful poets and writers, the musicians and painters, the fools who make us laugh with joy—and their gifts of art and mystery resonate powerfully.
While nurturing like Kings and Queens, and artistic like Magicians, Lovers sometimes lack the ability to speak up and stand their ground, and have a tendency to be passive and introverted.
