No surprise there ;-)

You Are 10% Boyish and 90% Girlish

Even if you're not a girl, you're very feminine. You're in touch with your feelings, and your heart rules you. A bit of a emotional roller coaster, one moment you're up and the next you're down. But no matter what, you try to be as cute and perky as possible.

How Boyish or Girlish Are You?

Astrodienst?

What do the Astrologers among us think about the Astrodienst extended daily horoscopes? It's about $30 for a 12 month subscription. Is it worth it or are there better sources out there.

Ramblings

You know I hate seeing people on the streets, what I really hate is women with small children begging. I think they are mostly immigrants from the new eastern european states or perhaps travelers. The sad thing is that there is a social net here they just may not know enough or speak enough english to avail themselves. Or maybe they are just trying to pick up some extra cash since they are unable to work with two kids in tow. I don't know, it just really hits me in my gut.

I did find out that if we have another baby, I'm entitled to 18 weeks at least partially paid maternity leave (this is paid by the state, there may also be money from the employer) and another 8 weeks unpaid leave. That's two weeks before the baby arrives and 6 months after that. This is a good thing.

On another more cheerful note, I discovered today that I work around the corner from not only the Irish National Library but also from the main complex of the National Museum. I'm not sure I'm going to have enough time during lunch to do much exploring though. I did pick up an application for a readers card at the library but will have to have a couple of passport pictures made before I can get it.

Today is a beautiful day interspersed with short burst of drizzle, I went for a walk (discovering the aforementioned buildings) and ran across an outdoor art exhibit at St. Stephens Green. There was some really neat stuff including a greenman painted in translucent paint on glass, at €220 it's a bit past my budget right now though I did get the artists card.

I must say something that I have been noticing in the last week, that I had forgoten, is that the Irish are significantly skinnier than Americans. I feel possitively blimplike over here. Everyone I work with except the two solicitors, who probably eat out too much and don't get any exercise at all, is about the size of my forearm. I wonder if I'll loose weight just being here, maybe it's in the air or something ;-)

Socialist, my Mom would be proud

Lawful-Good 90% Good, 38% Chaotic

I'm starting a longer version of this test, and I would REALLY appreciate some suggestions for questions from members of all alignments. Please email me with a suggestion, along with the alignment you scored on this test. THANK YOU!! I will make it a seperate test and will include tendencies, kinda like the "Long Scientific Personality Test vs. the Quick and Dirty Personality test. Plane of Existence: Mount Celestia, "The Seven Heavens". Description: Countless paladins and saints have ascended here. Notable Inhabitants: Angels and Devas. Examples of Lawful-Goods (Ethically Lawful, Morally Good) Superman The Tick ("Lawful Stupid") Abraham Lincoln Sherlock Holmes Phileas Fogg Captain Picard A person with a lawful good attitude believes in the use of authority and rule of law to bring good to the greatest number of people. Her/His actions support the status quo and s/he uses systems and organizations to achieve good goals. S/He will keep his/her word and value truth. S/He will avoid the use of poison and use violence only when authorized to do so or in self defense. S/He may or may not be disciplined, organized, emotionally restrained, caring, compassionate, and peaceful, but s/he believes that these are admirable qualities. Respects law and order and is willing to suffer limitations on individual freedom for the benefit of the group. Puts moral principles before material considerations. The lawful good person will be a very faithful member of a group, but if the laws of the group clash with the ethics dictated by his or her moral alignment, the lawful good person will probably leave that group and look for a group more closely aligned with his or her ethics. The lawful good person is an active advocate of his or her beliefs. Lawful Good "Crusader" A lawful good [person] upholds society and its laws, believing that these laws are created to work for the good and prosperity of all. He is both honest and benevolent. He will work within the established system to change it for the better, and strives to bring order to goodness that other good-aligned [people] might pool their resources to better the world. A lawful good [person] combines a commitment to oppose evil with discipline. Most lawful good [people] live by a strict code of honor, or by the rules of conduct set down by their deity. They will generally selflessly act by these codes even at the cost of their own life. Lawful good combines honor and compassion for the innocent. A knight/paladin who always follows the orders of his superiors is an example of a lawful good [person].
