Thanks for seein' about a girl, friend. here's where I'm writing my own history—for you, for me and anyone else who needs to laugh to keep from cryin' every once in awhile.

I, the emotionally reserved, will (apparently) "make cheat" on you.

I love these surveys. I have to admit it. I know to some it may diminish the quality (if such a thing could even be said) of posts, but they are quick and fun and often insightful.

Take the one below for instance. So much of it is completely true, but of course there's always one or two things that I frown at and wonder, "Am I really like that?"

The "cost benefit sheet?" Yeah, I totally scoffed at that and then checked myself. It's probably one of my chief drawbacks, because I set that mug up instantly and start a running tab. So when it's early on and those random "Oh I'm just being me" things start to "slip" out and they don't all fall into the benefit column -- the future is not so bright.

I am trying to work on this, but apparently it's going to take someone to give me a really stellar reason.

Clearly given my family history, I will not judge anyone else's past. Gracious. We all have to start somewhere to get to where we eventually are and shall be so it's not like I'm even able or capable of wielding the white glove while I inspect someone's past.

The running, very funny thing that I notice in these surveys is how one part insists I'm ready for a commitment and would be good for it, yada, and then in the very next section I'm provided with a cheat escape clause. Now we all know I'm just a bundle of contradictions, but this one has to be the most alarming. And as much as I would hope that I would never feel inclined to "make cheat" (that could've been corrected, but the Borat-lover in me just couldn't let it go) on someone, I can't guarantee that it wouldn't happen.

I am quite practical, though; however, I feel contrary to this reading that my practical nature is precisely what prevents me from instantly planning marriage.

Lastly, whoa on the using the nookie to get ahead. Have mercy mah-jesus no. I'm not bloody ruthless, yo. Besides, if you could see my present work options you would so know better to immediately dismiss this as hogwash -- plain and simple. Gracious.
