Saturday Six for 12/3/05

1. Is it a "Christmas Tree" or a "Holiday Tree?"
In my house, it's a Christmas tree.

2. When you purchase a DVD, what of the following are you most interested in watching first: the movie itself, the director's commentary, the deleted scenes, the bloopers or the behind-the-scenes documentary, and why?
I generally watch the movie first, but if it's something I've seen recently I may go straight for the special features. I *love* commentaries, but sometimes I get bored and turn them off halfway through. Deleted scenes are my least favorite. Really, they were cut for a reason...why resurrect them?!?

3. What would you most like to accomplish before the year is over?
You're not giving me much time here! I'd like to buy some Christmas presents, get a tree, decorate said tree, spend some time with family and friends, bring home some paychecks... I'm not making any grand plans!

4. Take this quiz: After you enter your birthday, you'll be given a lot of facts about your age and astrology: How old are you in dog years?
3.82504892367906 years old. (Life's just a big chewy bone for me!)

5. From the same quiz, what does it say your "Life Path Number" is, and do you agree with its description? I'm a 5. I hi-lighted what I agree with in green, and what I disagree with in red...

A Life Path 5 person is usually very versatile, adventurous, and progressive. With a 5 life path, you are one of those people who is always striving to find answers to the many questions that life poses. You want to be totally unrestrained, as this is
the sign of freedom and independence. You abhor routine and boring work, and you are not very good at staying with everyday tasks that must be finished on time. You are, however, a good communicator, and you know how to motivate
people around you, perhaps inclining you to be a teacher of some sort. A love of adventure may dominate your life. This may take the form of mental or physical manifestation, but in either case, you thrill to the chance for exploration and blazing new trails. You are apt to be multi-talented, but just as likely to suffer from some lack of direction, and there is often some confusion surrounding your ambition. On the average, the number 5 personality is rather happy-go-lucky; living for today, and not worrying too much about tomorrow.
It is important for you to mix with people of a like mind, and try to avoid
those that are too serious and demanding. It is also important for you to find a job that provides thought-provoking tasks rather than routine and redundant responsibilities. You do best dealing with people, but the important thing is that you have the freedom to express yourself at all times. You have an innate ability to think through complex matters and analyze them quickly, but then be off to something new.
In the most negative application or use of the 5 energies, you could become very
irresponsible in tasks and decisions concerning your home and business life. The
total pursuit of sensation and adventure can result in your becoming
self-indulgent and totally unaware of the feelings of those around you. In the
worse case situations negative 5's are very undependable and self-serving.

6. Do you have a piece of jewelry with your birthstone in it? If so, how often do you wear it?
My birthstone is aquamarine, and I'm not really all that fond of it. I have one ring that belonged to my great grandmother, and have had some pendants over time, but I rarely wear any jewelry at all except my wedding set. And there's definitely no aquamarines there!
