I found this little quizzie on Stacy's blog this evening. I was kinda shocked at how accurate my results were:

What Susie Means

You are the total package - suave, sexy, smart, and strong. You have the whole world under your spell, and you can influence almost everyone you know. You don't always resist your urges to crush the weak. Just remember, they don't have as much going for them as you do. You are a very lucky person. Things just always seem to go your way. And because you're so lucky, you don't really have a lot of worries. You just hope for the best in life. You're sometimes a little guilty of being greedy. Spread your luck around a little to people who need it. You tend to be pretty tightly wound. It's easy to get you excited... which can be a good or bad thing. You have a lot of enthusiasm, but it fades rather quickly. You don't stick with any one thing for very long. You have the drive to accomplish a lot in a short amount of time. Your biggest problem is making sure you finish the projects you start. You are friendly, charming, and warm. You get along with almost everyone. You work hard not to rock the boat. Your easy going attitude brings people together. At times, you can be a little flaky and irresponsible. But for the important things, you pull it together.

Okay, so maybe I'm not what one would think of as "suave and sexy", or having "the world under my spell", and I have never wanted to "crush the weak". Oh, and I am sometimes a worrier and I don't "get along with almost everyone". But other than those things, much of this is spot on!

A couple of years ago, my husband and I started a tradition. On New Year's Day, we make a list things that we think might happen during the upcoming year. We seal up our lists and put them on top of our bookshelf (mainly so I won't sneak and read them in the middle of the year!). Then on New Year's Eve, we get down the lists, open them, and read them to each other. It's a lot of fun to see how right (or wrong) we were. The most correct predictions I've ever had were 3. Anyway, I thought I'd share my 2007 list, which was opened this evening (I would share Jeff's list, too, but his is boring. Heh!):

Hillary Clinton will gradually gather steam and will seem to be the front runner for the Dems in the 2008 election.
(Wrong, sorta. It's basically a 3-way tie as we get ready for the "Hawkeye Caucii" next week.)

The Indianapolis Colts will win the Super Bowl.
(Correct! I love Peyton Manning.)

There will be an assassination attempt on either the President or Vice President.
(Wrong, thankfully. Don't know what kind of morbid mood I was in while writing this list last year! But you really never know what those crazy wacko libs might try!)

Missouri and/or Illinois will experience an earthquake of 5.9 or more magnitude.
(Wrong again, thankfully again. I think I based this on a television special I saw. Scientists believe that this area (the New Madrid fault) is overdue for a strong earthquake. But then again, some scientists say that humans are causing global warming, so you have to take these things with a grain of salt.)

Kate Winslet will win an Oscar.
(Wrong. I don't even think she was nominated for one. She deserves one, though! She's played several really great roles.)

There will be 2 hurricanes hit the U.S. but they will both be a Category 3 or less.
(Wrong by 1. Only Hurricane Humberto hit the U.S., as a Category 1.)

Rush Limbaugh will not win the Nobel Peace Prize.
(Correct! He should have, though. Lord knows he's done more for peace than this nutjob.

Someone from California or New York will win on American Idol.
(Wrong. Jordin Sparks is from Arizona.)

An actor will pursue the 2008 Republican nomination.
(Correct. Honestly, I think we had already figured last year that Fred Thompson was going to throw his hat into the ring. So this was an informed guess!)

So there we go. I got 3 right again this year. It's time to start writing my predictions for 2008. I have a few in mind, but as usual, they will just be guesses. There's no way to know what might happen over the course of an entire year. Let's just hope it's all positive stuff!

Happy New Year!
