A grey bag that I like to call a nightgown. 03. Who is your favorite writer? Er, um...jeez. I can't say I really have one. I'm such a literature whore that I love so much of it I can't say. I'm damn fond of Suzannah Clarke, though... 04. What is your favorite scent? Many moons ago there was a gal who sold scents here at the Larkspur RenFaire. She had a mix called "Gypsy Gold" that I loved. It was amber and sandalwood and rose and something else I've never been able to identify. 05.

Is there a useless thing that you cannot brace yourself to throw out? That is such a loaded question... All the poetry I wrote as an angsty teen. 08. What is your occupation? What do you do there? I am a student of Music Education at Metropolitan State College of Denver. I learn that being wicked smart does not make things that take physical talent any easier. 09. What did you want to be when you grew up? A ballet dancer, a singer, and a teacher. I think I missed out on the first one... 10. What are your favorite song(s) of the moment?

Actors can be over-rated (people thinking they are better than they are) but I don't get how a character can be over-rated. 12. What 3 people would you invite to dinner? Ann, Paul, and Chuck. 13. What is your current desktop? Er, um... sadly I have to look... Hang on... Ah, right! A picture of the kids that was taken about 8 years ago. 14.

What's the meaning behind your LJ username/name/nicknames you go by? I love Pirates and Fairies. Go figure. November 3rd, 2008: This was fun... Gakked from all sorts 'o folks: Your result for What Your Taste in Art Says About You Test... Balanced, Secure, and Realistic.10 Impressionist, 0 Islamic, 0 Ukiyo-e, -17 Cubist, -4 Abstract and -8 Renaissance!
Impressionism is a movement in French painting, sometimes called optical realism because of its almost scientific interest in the actual visual experience and effect of light and movement on appearance of objects. Impressionist paintings are balanced, use colored shadows, use pure color, broken brushstrokes, thick paint, and scenes from everyday life or nature. People that like Impressionist paintings may not alway be what is deemed socially acceptable. They tend to move on their own path without always worrying that it may be offensive to others. They value friendships but because they also value honesty tend to have a few really good friends. They do not, however, like people that are rude and do not appreciate the ideas of others. They are secure enough in themselves that they can listen to the ideas of other people without it affecting their own final decisions. The world for them is not black and white but more in shades of grey and muted colors. They like things to be aestically pleasing, not stark and sharp. There are many ways to view things, and the impresssionist personality views the world from many different aspects. They enjoy life and try to keep a realistic viewpoint of things, but are not very open to new experiences. If they are content in their live they will be more than likely pleased to keep things just the way they are.

You sing! You dance! You flee from the authorities! You were a bit difficult to place, because you like civilization and humanity -- but when it comes to work, you don't really fit into the system, the ruts and the rituals, that modern civilization embraces. You like your own ways... your old ways. We've placed you among a hardy Gypsy family. They'll have you plucking a violin before you can talk, and dancing before you can walk. The road is your home, and your horses are members of your family. You get to wear lots of shiny things. We expect that you'll have a good life. Even if your people are surrounded by a world where they don't really fit in, they have each other, an oasis of compatibility in an unbalanced world. We know you'll make the most of it!
