Have not posted a photo in a while, so here I am at goofing off at Starbucks.
Here's a roundup of a few of my (new) favorite things.

Typealizer analyzes your blog's personality. Here's what it says about Poet Mom:




ESTP - The Doers

The active and playful type. They are especially attuned to people and things around them and often full of energy, talking, joking and engaging in physical out-door activities. The Doers are happiest with action-filled work which craves their full attention and focus. They might be very impulsive and more keen on starting something new than following it through. They might have a problem with sitting still or remaining inactive for any period of time.





I took the Myers-Briggs test a few years ago and had the same breakdown. No pretenses here--I am my blog.

I'm also a doer, according to that test, but the description doesn't fit me at all.

My description is accurate, except for the part about physical outdoor stuff.
Here's wishing a happy Thanksgiving to you and yours tomorrow!

I got exactly the same description, and it is absolutely not me - I got quite different results a few years back with the Myers-Briggs test. I was very suspicious about how quickly it came back with an answer, it didn't seem long enough to download and analyze a sample of the blog's writing.

I'm quite happy sitting still and daydreaming, procrastinating etc !!

starbucks is a great place to hangout and write.

Hi Ananda! Hope you had a great Thanksgiving.

Yes, Starbucks is the one luxury I allow myself even though I'm cutting back.
