STOP THE QUIZZES
Hello, my name is Jaded Mystic... and I'm a Quizaholic. I won't even tell you how many quizzes I took today. But I learned so much about myself. That I'm most like Carrie on Sex and the City, that my bra color personality is red, that... well, you get the picture.

maybe i should retake it.
So, I took a religion test at quiz farm... it says i should check out buddhism. hmmmm.... I have and do and still I choose (progressive) Christianity... Beliefnet.com says I should be liberal Quaker. That I could live with.
Now, another quiz I took is looking at different models of the church that Dulles suggests. it's rather interesting, and I think a little more productive for a seminarian, at least.

You scored as Servant Model. Your model of the church is Servant. The mission of the church is to serve others, to challenge unjust structures, and to live the preferential option for the poor. This model could be complemented by other models that focus more on the unique person of Jesus Christ.

Awkward Aarvarks Ate Apples in Atlanta
Wow. It's been a while since I've blogged... almost to the point of being awkward, kind of like the friend you haven't seen in a long time and things have changed so much you have nothing to say... AND everything that has changed doesn't seem so spectacular, so why mention it?
But then, I'm not known for letting a little awkward shyness stop me from opening my mouth. :)
I'm looking at the word awkward and thinking how appropriate it is for its meaning... what a cumbersome and odd looking little word. You'd think it'd be describing some exotic animal like an aardvark or a platypus. If awkward were an animal, I think it would look kinda like a cross between an oppossum and a three-toed sloth... probably living in the wilds of city dumps, eating only food with lots of hydrogenated oils. It's mating call would be similar to the vibrating whine sound my car makes when a belt is loose. *See, why be awkward over not knowing what to say when Regan is around? She'll find some BS to talk about. ;)
Hard to believe, but there are times when I just don't have much to say. I'd rather just do my sudoku in peace and let all the drama of politics, family crises, career making decisions, etc. fly right over my head. Escapist... me? NEVER! So, I'm going to go and finish my sudoku, maybe a crossword or two, and just pretend like this never happened, k?
