And They Were All Yellow...

So my Friday afternoon distraction from the dissertation was to take this color & personality quiz on True Value Paint's Web site (I found it via How About Orange). My result was yellow and the description was, I think, scarily accurate:

You are quite the powerful thinker. It's this talent that allows you to overcome a plethora of great obstacles. Luckily, this doesn't affect your ego, and you give off a pretty easy-going appearance. You enjoy the finer things in life and also have an attraction to art. If you can help it, you try not to rock the boat. But you also can't stop yourself from searching for new ideas, methods, or styles.


What it doesn't mention is: You are such a powerful thinker that you never stop thinking...ever. You just think and think and think until you drive yourself to drink. (Like my attempt at a Seussism?)

I also, for the first time, declared myself a summer person while I was taking this quiz. I always thought summer was my least favorite season, but the warmer temps, long, sunny days, road trips, farmers' markets, softball games, uninterrupted work days, and trips to the dog park have totally won me over. Who knew?


Anyway, it was a fun little quiz on a sunny Friday afternoon!
