You scored as Marianne Dashwood. Most girls can relate with Marianne on a more personal level than some of Austen's other characters. She represents the emotional longings and struggles that seem to attack and bless us at the same time. Loyal to a fault, passionate for experience and life, and a bit over-emotional, Marianne matures and grows (making her so beloved).
You are Sparrow! You've been distracted from your usual spiritual pursuits by work and family. Get your hubby to babysit one night a week while you study Buddhist meditation at the local sangha.

hey, anne...did i tell you that i have a huge crush on princess leia in this picture (not so much with the double-bun look)...so i must have a crush on you, now! sorry ariel!
it was the next generation. some guy wanted to disassemble Data, and there was a hearing to decide whether he (Data) was a person or property. the trial was held in a new court room, or space ship or something. which was captained by a sassy red head, who clearly had a sexy history with capt. Pickard. since her ship was so new, she didn't have the court set up. so Pickard defended Data while second-in-command-beard-face-guy had to prosecute him.
I think it was to teach us of Kants definition of a rational being. or my teacher was hungover.
sorry about the weird text yesterday, my phone was being crappy. what I was trying to say was: "I'm watching startreck in ethics class to learn about Kant"
Thank you for inventing me to your lovely shin dig. Sorry hubby couldn’t make it, but even weekends belong to the mistress. It was swell you must give me the name of your caterer. It is nice to have a classy occasion where the dignified don't have to mix with the hoi polloi. I mean I enjoy a charity benefit as much as the next Joans, but really if we keep giving them charity, then who will we have charity benefits for?
