Cock-a-doodle-dooooooooo!!!!

So, my BFF Megs sent me this website and because it's a Friday, and work is snooze-ville right now, I decided to check it out. (Don't tell my boss...or my mom, she might think I'm not working, which I AM, but just not for these couple of minutes. Let's just say it was my lunch break.)

Anyway, the website is http://www.animalinyou.com/ You answer a few questions and it shows you which type of animal(s) your personality matches. Mine came out as both BEAR and ROOSTER....I think I'm more BEAR (sorry, my friend Sar-Bear, not trying to steal your title) with a twinge of ROOSTER...you guys decide, and let me know what you think of my "evaluation." Take your own test and let me know what YOU are....I swear, I won't attack your tent and steal all of your food while you camp. (Unless, of course, I'm hungry. And there's chocolate involved. Then, it's fair game.)

Bear
Genera and species: Euarctos Americanus
Collective Term: A maul of bears
Description: Conflicting forces shape the bear's nature. Since it is a classic omnivore, this burly beast exhibits two distinct sides to its personality. The carnivorous component makes the bear gruff and powerful, while its herbivorous side reveals a sensitive and intelligent individual. With their gruff outgoing personalities, their burly physiques and strong characters make bears easy to identify. Their natural confidence and swaggering gaits puts others on notice that a bear is present. They require a great deal of personal space (aka. PERSONAL BUBBLE--we talked about this, remember?) and when they enter a room, the tension level rises. As youngsters, bears excel in sports, although their propensity for laziness relegates it to being an observer and fan in later life. (Laziness is a little harsh...how about love of spectator-ism?) Familiar with the seduction of the couch, their ability to sleep soundly is legendary throughout the animal world. (More like 'do not wake up the bear unless you'd like to be growled at'?) Although it is aware and intelligent, the bear mostly succeeds from the sheer force of its personality. Rarely challenged to reach its full intellectual potential, it dominates conversations with its intense single-mindedness. (What-EVER.) However, it is unwilling to argue from a position that it doesn't truly believe in, which makes it a lousy lawyer (Thank goodness I didn't waste my time going to Law School.) Bears routinely enjoy success in all aspects of their industrious lives and their large and capable frames elicit respect and admiration in the workplace. Their natural leadership talents make them suitable for jobs in management, academia and personnel training. General Norman Schwarzkopf is the quintessential bear personality, typifying this breed's no-nonsense head-on approach to life. Two elements define the bear's style of debate. Never avoid an argument and never back down. (LOL--wanna make something of it?!) Bears will batter their opponents into submission just for the endorphin rush -- for there's nothing a bear enjoys more than pitting every drop of its intellectual juices against the mind of a worthy opponent. These large carnivores are not the most reciprocating of lovers and their mating habits can be described as intense, speedy and sweaty -- never as romantic or extravagant. (Okay, let's not even go there...)But still, they're always willing to get the fur flying, and their mates secretly appreciate the passion and ferocity of their sexual interest. (Again, not going there...)

Rooster
Genera and species: Gallus gallus
Collective Term: A brood of roosters
Description: Roosters are those talented, creative, but somewhat eccentric people who make life interesting for the rest of us. (yeah for us!) Their bird-like minds are always on the lookout for stimulation and roosters display the characteristically high-energy behavior of their species. They are artistic, creative, and sophisticated with a thorough knowledge of fine wines, cooking, writing, theater and painting. Subscribing to the early bird maxim, roosters rise a little earlier than their competition (This is obviously false...I said a little bit of Rooster, not the whole thing...) and could even be accused of having their fingers in too many pies. For the world is so fascinating to the rooster, that settling down into any one career would be impossibly constricting. Unfortunately, their earning potential can suffer in a competitive world that rewards specialization. (NOW you tell me...) But, roosters will succeed when they choose a career that presents a variety of challenges, such as medicine, publishing, journalism, or acting. There's a touch of glamour in everything the rooster does -- for settling for less would be exasperating to the rooster's essence. Why take the train if you can fly (Even IF you "white-knuckle it" the entire way)? This philosophy pervades its personal life, for the rooster proves to be a perfectionist in the bedroom too. (*Edited for inappropriate content*) Their ideal mates include peacocks who are attracted to their strong demeanor and flashy style. They are incorrigible flirts and although successful in attracting mates, their egos sometimes drive potential partners away (WOW, all my questions have been answered...) When sufficiently motivated by the right partner however, the rooster will generally find a way to make the relationship work. As a parent, it is fussy and attentive. Like the proverbial brooding hen, it is involved with every aspect of its children's lives; including their dress and company they keep; some even accuse the rooster of being overprotective. Although its children might resent their parent's interference, they learn to appreciate their concerns as they mature. The more reserved animal personalities such as bats, bison and moles find them to be fussy and bossy, and snake and canine personalities should be studiously avoided. A rooster will not be silent while there's breath in its body (LMAO) and although its powerful voice tends to be on the shrill side -- when it calls for action, everyone responds. Fuelled by resentment of their brazen style, these saucy birds hear a lot of unkind remarks from members of their own species and these barbs tear at their self-esteem. But when things look bleak, they stick to their guns, redouble their efforts, and live by the motto: if at first you don't suck seed, try drier grain.

Sorry, I had to add in my own comments. Do you expect anything less? Until next time...

So if you're a Bear and a Rooster - what does that make a Beaster? So I'm Loon?
