So, I found this site today, and, while it's kind of hokey, I had a lot of fun playing with their name analysis tool. You type in your first name and click your gender (only two to choose from, though) and it tells you what your personality is like, based on your name.

What's interesting is how well they did with me:

"Your name of Heather makes you easy-going and refined, but detracts from your physical vitality. You desire all the finer things in life--lovely clothes, home, furniture, and environment. However, procrastination is your worst enemy, and you find yourself lacking the ambition to make your dreams a reality. People are inclined to take advantage of your sympathetic, tractable nature. You naturally attract people with problems who seek your understanding and advice. You can give good advice although it is unlikely that you would follow it yourself. You would be most successful in situations where you can use your skills in diplomacy in handling people, but where you are not under pressure or required to carry responsibility and make decisions. It is difficult for you to be individual and make your own decisions, for you lack self-confidence. "

I don't want to admit to all of that, but it's all true to some degree. Much of the negative stuff I'm well aware of and working on changing about myself, however :-)

Tim's was fairly accurate, too. I did a couple of other friends, but quickly realized how little I know about some of you (I couldn't tell how accurate the results were) :-) Jenn, yours definitely starts out sounding like you, but I'm not sure about the stuff at the end . . .

Anyway, it's interesting, especially the health problems (which are dead-on for me, if not comprehensive). I thought it might amuse some of you this Friday.

Oh, and ahoy and ARRR!
