Your Lucky Underwear is Purple
Dreamy and idealistic, you envision great things for your life. Your lucky purple underwear can make those dreams come true!
You're a busy little butterfly. You have the most projects, interests, and friends of anyone you know.
You also have a flair for the dramatic. Sometimes too much drama comes in to your life and brings things to a stop.
If you want to focus more, and flutter less, put on your purple underpants. They'll help you get the important things done.
What Color Is Your Lucky Underwear?
..tr Modern, Cool Nerd
69 % Nerd, 52% Geek, 39% Dork
For The Record:
A Nerd is someone who is passionate about learning/being smart/academia.
A Geek is someone who is passionate about some particular area or subject, often an obscure or difficult one.
A Dork is someone who has difficulty with common social expectations/interactions.
You scored better than half in Nerd and Geek, earning you the title of: Modern, Cool Nerd.
Nerds didn't used to be cool, but in the 90's that all changed. It used to be that, if you were a computer expert, you had to wear plaid or a pocket protector or suspenders or something that announced to the world that you couldn't quite fit in. Not anymore. Now, the intelligent and geeky have eked out for themselves a modicum of respect at the very least, and "geek is chic." The Modern, Cool Nerd is intelligent, knowledgable and always the person to call in a crisis (needing computer advice/an arcane bit of trivia knowledge). They are the one you want as your lifeline in Who Wants to Be a Millionaire (or the one up there, winning the million bucks)!
Congratulations!
Thanks Again! -- THE NERD? GEEK? OR DORK? TEST

I'd like to meet:
Smart people, silly people, people who can laugh at themselves and who don't get offended when I laugh at them. People who like to sit around talking for hours and hours about nothing and everything. Non-conformists. Writers. Artists. Actors. Poets. Musicians. Liberals. Progressives. Insomniacs. Homeschooling parents. Unschooling parents. People who think outside the box. People who are genuine - I hate fakeness.
I'd really like to meet this girl:

Pride! You want to make a stand and give a message
to the world about how amazing it is that some
people make such sacrifices for the good of the
world. You also like hitting high notes whilst
driving really fast down the motorway and
playing air guitar at the same time. You are
likely to get assasinated whilst campaigning
for justice. Or being hit by a truck.

You are Trinity! You are Morpheus' second in
Command. You are the ideal operative, a master
in combat, tactics and are a natural born
leader. You were reluctant to believe that
you Loved Neo, because that would mean the
final battle was about to begin. As long as
you searched for the Chosen One, then there was
always hope. Now that you've admitted your
love for Neo, the Chosen One, then there is no
going back. By accepting this fact, and your
love, you are stronger. You Kick Ass.

Television:
Yeah, okay, TV desensitizes you to reality and rots your brain. You know you watch it anyway, lol.
I am one of maybe 5 Americans who does NOT have cable TV. (Why do people get offended when I tell them this, and immediately start trying to get me to get cable? Does the cable company give them some kind of kickback for recruiting new subscribers?)
Anyhow... I *love* HOUSE!!! I also like Smallville, Bones, American Idol, Grey's Anatomy, and The L-Word. I watch Sesame Street, Zoom, Postcards from Buster, and Reading Rainbow with my son (when we catch them), and I'll watch just about anything on PBS, especially cooking shows (Simply Ming is my fave). I also enjoy late-night reruns of Friends, Will and Grace, and Sex and the City.
My all-time fave shows are Moonlighting and My So-Called Life. I'm so happy that I now have both of these on DVD! Hooray for technology!
Books:
Absolutely anything by Anne Tyler or Elizabeth Berg.
Dinner at the Homesick Restaurant, The Clock Winder, The Amateur Marriage, Ladder of Years, The Poisonwood Bible, Prodigal Summer, The Golden Notebook, Pippi Longstocking, The Pull of the Moon, Durable Goods, True to Form, Range of Motion, Say When, The Handmaid's Tale, Song of the Exile, Gone With the Wind, Harriet the Spy, The Red Tent, Cunt, Fat!So?, The Kite Runner, Stupid White Men, Dumbing Us Down, The Lost Daughters of China, Skinny Women are Evil, Bitch in the House, Queen of the Oddballs, Harold and the Purple Crayon, Bridge to Terabithia.
And the dictionary! I look in mine at least once a day...
Heroes:
People who aren't afraid to be who they are. People who ARE afraid to be who they are, and do it anyway. Regular people with faults and shortcomings who nevertheless do exemplary things.
Some of the well-known people I admire include: Bono, Martin Luther King Jr., Natalie Maines, Eleanor Roosevelt, Elizabeth Cady Stanton, Aung San Suu Kyi, Thomas Paine, Susan Sarandon, Michael Moore, Barbara Boxer, Cindy Sheehan, Jamila Paksima, Ellen Degeneres, Camryn Manheim (who shares my birthday! how cool!), Dan Barker, Marilyn Wann, John Cameron Mitchell, Richard O'Brien, John Holt.
Dr. Seuss, for making silliness an art form.
The Ocean, for always being there when I need it.
My friend Laurie Heikkenen.
One of my best friends, Jimmy Hurd (1959-2006):
and my two biggest heroes....
My grandparents:
Granddad... 1925-1991... for reasons probably only you and I will ever understand... and Mommom... 1928-2004... who probably never knew what a truly inspirational person she was. I miss you so much... you are and always will be my number one hero, forever.
When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
-Kahlil Gibran
