Nicked this BBC's personality quiz from Joules
This was my result:

Your answers suggest you are a Nurturer

Summary of Nurturers

· Care for the important people in their lives
· Strive for harmony and avoid confrontation
· Think of themselves as gentle, conscientious, and mature
· May have trouble making decisions that could hurt others

More about Nurturers
Nurturers are quiet people who believe in order and diligently look after the people they care about. They focus on the needs of others and establish routines to help them meet their commitments.

Nurturers are the most likely group to say they prefer a job where the same thing happens every day, according to a UK survey.

Nurturers remember details that are important to them, such as their friends' birthdays and anniversaries. People with this personality type value others' feelings and may challenge behaviour they think is insensitive.
In situations where they can't use their talents or are unappreciated, Nurturers may feel bitter and seek support by complaining to their colleagues. Under extreme stress, Nurturers may become preoccupied with the worst possible outcome and believe that they are heading for disaster.
Because they are so caring and loyal, Nurturers run the risk of being taken advantage of.


Weeellll, aside from the remembering birthdays and such... :)

Movies!
Cubs and I went to see Ratatouille. It was very sweet ([squinch] I love rats!) and the technical aspects were as good as I've come to expect from Pixar but it wasn't as captivating as some of their previous films. I enjoyed it, and I'll get the DVD when it's released but it failed to fire my imagination.
Tell you what, though, if you don't like rats you won't like this movie. The artists have captured ratty movements very believably. :)

Another movie I've seen recently - though only on DVD - was Hot Fuzz. Joules heartily recommended it, and rightly so, cos as a British spoof of US action/buddy films it's one of the funniest things I've seen in ages. Well cast, well played, with loads of in jokes - just my sort of thing really. Bit gory, but I can live with that, I know when to close my eyes now. [grin]
