So I'm on Facebook now, and it is amazing how many "personality"-tests are out there - I mean really... apparently I like nerds (ehem), I have the 50's pin-up personality of Jane Mansfield (again, ehem) and I would be Svandís Svavarsdóttir if I were one of Reykjavik's counsil members... I'm a bona fide Brit and Canadian, I would be New York if I were a city and Here comes the sun is the Beattle's song that would best describe me. I scored 47 on the dr. Phil test, I would be Dr. Heidegger if I were a German philosopher and Theodora as a dictator.
These are just a few... I have deleted countless results from my profile page...
After all this time answering these tests, you begin to wonder about the collective scientific validity of all these tests - I mean, individually these tests are mostly full of crap, but perhaps together they make some sort of sense... Oh, well. Maybe I need to find something else to do with my time.
Like seeing the Iceland Dance Company!! I went to the premiere of Dansandi last Friday and I was really amazed - and finally, two pieces that can actually be considered audience friendly - and I don't mean this disparagingly towards other choreographers or negatively about these pieces. Good art CAN be audience-friendly, in spite of what many a snob would say.
People came out of the auditorium, smiling from ear to ear - after watching beautiful dance and then laughing their asses of... seriously, I would recommend this performance to anyone AND I am no longer getting paid to say this - so go!
I moved this weekend. Moved-ish. I don't like packing much, but I got most of the stuff shipped over with the aid of my brother-in-law and 5 year old niece - who is remarkably strong for her age. Makes you wonder about child labour - can't we do something productive with all these kindergartens?
So, back to basics, home to momma and poppa...
Saving up money so I can buy my own place... one who will hopefully not leak like my last flat.
OK... have to go work now!
See ya later.
