Because I'm really trying to avoid work in this Christmas week... (edit: the copy and paste that I published first wasn't mine... The list has been edited to reflect what I've done and what I want to do...sorry.)
I'm not gonna tag anyone, so feel free to do it if you want.

Your result for The OkCupid Kissing Test...
The Vixen
You are 81% Passionate, 31% Romantic, and 93% Experienced!
You Naughty Thing!
Well, well, well, Ms. Vixen. You've got the highest Passion score among the female kissing types, and you seem to be rather experienced as well. Your scores in Romance aren't as high, which suggests that you're more interested in the erotic and physical aspects of kissing than the emotional ones. You revel in the different textures, tastes and techniques of whoever you happen to be kissing at the moment, and you're a fantastic kisser yourself. You're creative, and like to mix up the makeout with unexpected, flirty moves. You're definitely a committed, passionate kisser. You just might not feel as passionate post-kiss. It's not that you can't get attached... it's just not the FIRST thing you do. And you do that first thing extremely well. We say more power to you. And, um, what are you doing Friday night?
If you're looking for good-spirited makeout fun, we recommend your male counterpart, The Rogue. Good secondary smooch options include The Smooth Operator and The Flirt. Avoid The Traditionalist like the Plague. Trust us.

Yeah, instead of posting anything meaningful, I'm posting the color meme going around...
#EE82EE
Your dominant hues are red and blue. You're
confident and like showing people new ideas. You play well with others
and can be very influential if you want to be.
Your
saturation level is lower than average - You don't stress out over
things and don't understand people who do. Finishing projects may
sometimes be a challenge, but you schedule time as you see fit and the
important things all happen in the end, even if not everyone sees your
grand master plan.
Your outlook on life is bright.
You see good things in situations where others may not be able to, and
it frustrates you to see them get down on
everything.
Today is my grandmother, Meme's, 92 birthday. She is the formative person in my life. She's the person whom I turn to for strength, courage and the only one I turn to for validation. She is the one person I love unconditionally; the one I admire above all others.
She's the one I worry about disappointing, the one I know I could say anything to growing up. She never grew old - she just aged like a good wine.
I love ya Meme...
"Nobody grows old by merely living a number of years. People grow old by
deserting their ideals. Years wrinkle the skin, but to give up
enthusiasm wrinkles the soul." - General Douglas MacArthur
