An enigma wrapped in a puzzle wrapped in a thai spring role. No.. Im far less complicated than that. The first 24 years of my life were spent growing up in Lynn, Mass. A place where if you managed to not get knifed at school... you were one of the lucky ones. I coasted through highschool, went to Salem State College for a half of a second following my dilusions of grandeur thinking I was going to be the next..oh I dont know.. Edie McClurg with a thick Boston accent?
After waking up with a hangover from a cocktail of reality and lack of motivation.. I reluctantly entered the workforce when I realized I had no trustfund left to me by a rich great-aunt who made no secret of the fact that I was her favorite. She wouldve sent me to all the best schools and bought me a pony for my birthday. No.. no rich great-aunt to speak of. In fact both my great-aunts have plastic on the furniture and buy cubic zirconia off QVC. Luckily, I had a grandmother who was an antique jewelery dealer so I learned the value of fine Austrian crystal at a young age.
Fast forward to age 22, when I found myself at the lowest point in my.. or anyone's.. life. Selling bibles. No.. not door to door. And yes.. its like a Free Pass into Heaven.. dont ask stupid questions and stop interrupting!
My sister, the prodigal daughter, returned from Smith College to move back in with my parents and I. I knew it was time to escape otherwise I wouldve hung myself with a bible marker ribbon.
And so here I am. A 28 yr old senior zipping around the Berkshires of western Massachusetts in my Volvo S70 with no air conditioning. Im majoring in Arts Management/Theater/Music. All 3 of which will probably land me right where I started... not making any money... hunting for a nice rich doctor with a personality like Brian the Dog. Thats not gross is it? I mean yes hes a dog.. but hes a cartoon.. although I always thought anime porn was stupid.. its not like I want to see Brian nak... NEVERMIND!!!
I have another year at this fine instituation that is MCLA. (A public college with a private feel) Then the sky is the limit... or I go back to selling bibles.. this time armed with a theater degree.
The Queen
Queen’s are the rarest of all types. They are quiet but hold the deepest of convictions regarding the matters of the world. They are frequently activists for their cause, they will do what’s right but not for glory, not for political power. It is why they are the Queen. They are the champions of the oppressed and the downtrodden. They are found in the wake of the aftermath rescuing those in acute distress. They may even fantasize revenge on those who victimize the defenseless. Think of ‘Poetic Justice’ and you’ll have appealed to the Queen.
You can’t lead the Queen if only because they are right in suspecting others motives. You cannot fool this individual even if they are sympathetic. The Queen selects a few for friendship – these are friends that transcend the very word. They promote harmony with their very presence and typically make their surroundings more beautiful by just being there to clean up the mess. Don’t mistake them for extroverts – they are special in their diplomacy. They are ‘doers’ and dreamers. They can only be intimate with a chosen few. They will withdraw suddenly if pressed and this is necessary for them.
The Queen excels with writing and communication. They are often the counselors of home, of public service and the good face of politics for the King. They look at the global perspective and are better at spotting patterns and relations. They think of the future and strive for meaning and purpose.
You perceive the world with particular attention to humanity. You focus on what's in front of you (the foreground) and how that fits into the larger picture. You are also particularly drawn towards the colors around you. Because of the value you place on humanity, you tend to seek out other people and get energized by being around others. You like to deal directly with whatever comes your way without dealing with speculating possibilities or outcomes you can't control. You are in tune with all that is around you and understand your life as part of a larger whole. You are a down-to-earth person who enjoys going with the flow.
You're a dynamic, charismatic person who's possibly headed for fame.
You tend to charm strangers easily. And you usually can get what you want from them.
Verbally talented, you tend to persuade people with your speaking and writing.
You are affectionate and loving, but it's hard for you to commit to any one relationship.
Meyers-Briggs Personality: Extrovert-Intuitive-Feeling-Perceptual
As an ENFP, your primary mode of living is focused externally, where you take things in primarily via your intuition. Your secondary mode is internal, where you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit in with your personal value system.
ENFPs are warm, enthusiastic people, typically very bright and full of potential. They live in the world of possibilities, and can become very passionate and excited about things. Their enthusiasm lends them the ability to inspire and motivate others, more so than we see in other types. They can talk their way in or out of anything. They love life, seeing it as a special gift, and strive to make the most out of it.
ENFPs have an unusually broad range of skills and talents. They are good at most things which interest them. Project-oriented, they may go through several different careers during their lifetime. To onlookers, the ENFP may seem directionless and without purpose, but ENFPs are actually quite consistent, in that they have a strong sense of values which they live with throughout their lives. Everything that they do must be in line with their values. An ENFP needs to feel that they are living their lives as their true Self, walking in step with what they believe is right. They see meaning in everything, and are on a continuous quest to adapt their lives and values to achieve inner peace. They're constantly aware and somewhat fearful of losing touch with themselves. Since emotional excitement is usually an important part of the ENFP's life, and because they are focused on keeping "centered", the ENFP is usually an intense individual, with highly evolved values.

the Wit
(76% dark, 26% spontaneous, 15% vulgar)
your humor style: CLEAN | COMPLEX | DARK
You like things edgy, subtle, and smart. I guess that means you're probably an intellectual, but don't take that to mean pretentious. You realize 'dumb' can be witty--after all isn't that the Simpsons' philosophy?--but rudeness for its own sake, 'gross-out' humor and most other things found in a fraternity leave you totally flat.
I guess you just have a more cerebral approach than most. You have the perfect mindset for a joke writer or staff writer.
Your sense of humor takes the most thought to appreciate, but it's also the best, in my opinion.
Who I'd like to meet: People who like jazz and classical music and enjoy lobster and Japanese food. People who like to just get in the car and take a road trip to anywhere for the day. Concert goers, Tanglewood attendees, wine tasters, cocktail drinkers, movie lovers, singers, nappers, Nina Simone lovers, museum visitors, photographers, artists, people who hate the beach but love the water, people who can take my shit and then dish it right back, people who eat cottage cheese.
Just watch and you will understand...

"Is this the Court of the Exchequer? Be firm, be firm, my pecker!"
...OK, since I believe you were the first one to post an obscure reference to Trial By Jury on MY myspace page, I will ask your advice. Do you remember how we altered the above line in our performance? I'm doing it again in April (actually conducting from the judge's bench, ha!) and I need some solution that will be appropriate to my audience.
