Stream of Consciousness

So many things to post about, brain is swimming with ideas. Tell people about:

- 2008 New Year's Resolutions

- How Andrea doesn't plan and things fall into place and I plan obsessively and NOTHING works out for me and then I get negative and people say 'you shouldn't be so negative' and then I say 'HELLO, are you familiar with the concept of clinical depression?!' and then they say 'you expect things to go badly and then they do' and then I say 'no, no, things have always gone badly so I KNOW they will continue to and then they do'.

- How there are 54 days til we have health insurance again and I will be REALLY IMPRESSED with God if He keeps me out of the ER for that long. Hear that, God? Really impressed!

- How pissy it makes me that the 'Which Sex and the City Character are you' quiz on Facebook said that I was Miranda when I'm so CLEARLY Charlotte but then when I thought about it more I realized I was Miranda, the most obnoxious character on the show (next to Big and don't even get me started about how Carrie ended up with Big and the whole show ended when all the strong, independent women found love, true love. GAH!)

- How my friends and I used to always try to decide which TV character we were most like and I always thought is was so definitely Monica from Friends (if she never lost the weight) but then I realized the other day that I am so totally and obviously a female version of Alan Harper on Two and a Half Men.

Slightly manic today, can you tell?

You should give Andrea's 'tra-la-la' attitude a try and see what happens ... maybe everything will just fall into place for you too!

That Sex in the City quiz told me I was Samantha!?!? No idea how that's even possible! oh well, can't put too much stock into online, five-question quizzes :p

And, man, I laughed out loud at the female version of Alan Harper! You're hilarious!

I think that might have been my longest comment ever! I stress so much about commenting on these things :P

Yeah, I saw that you were Samantha, Angie and that Andrea was Charlotte and that just incensed me. Those are just so wrong, so totally wrong.

And I'm glad you get the Alan Harper reference and I'm sad that it made you laugh because its so very true ;)

Yay for long comments, keep em coming!

For the record and my own defense, it's not that I -never- plan. You should have seen me around Drew's big third birthday party, I was insane.

I thought my being Charlotte was actually pretty accurate. I could see Angie as Samantha too ;) But Miranda you are not, I agree. I wish I watched T&HM so I knew who Alan Harper was.

See, I don't get that at all, but perhaps I'm thinking of the characters as very one sided. When I think of Samantha I think of slutty and Angie is not at all slutty (Unless she hides it very well! ;) When I think of Charlotte, I think of someone very naive and always desperately looking for a partner, something I don't think matches your personality at all, Andra.

I, at first, thought that I was very unlike Miranda since she is so very career minded and strong, but I do match her in the negative thinking, sarcastic way, so I dunno.

As Angie said, I'm putting too much on the abilities of a 5 question quiz!

I thought of myself more as Charlotte in her very.. traditional, shall we say, ways. And Angie is more Samantha in that she goes out and has fun etc. I never watched the show enough to get a real feel for Miranda, though.
