Reading is my hobby too, well, besides the new knitting hobby! But reading is my first hobby love. When I was little I used to walk around the house with my book. I also freaked out my babysitter when I was 2 because I “read” Peter Rabbit to her. She was crazy impressed until my mom told her I had the book memorized. Oh well.

Hehe, I was too chicken to take anyone’s quiz. I like the commentary, though. And the image of you sitting with your mom flipping pages with her.

What fun! I just assumed that all bookish kids were 5’3″, majored in things as close to 19th-century history as possible, etc. And yes, you’re a great writer. Lots of energy in your posts.

Dude, as always – this is a great idea!

I love your commentary about your quiz, and I’m totally gonna steal the idea.

And I knew your degree was a science degree, I just got the kind of science wrong. Damn.

Did I do your quiz? I know I’ve done several of them and not done overly well, even on Margene’s which everyone else aced.

Your English looks pretty good to me, especially set against the backdrop of the Internet at large. Please bear in mind that I am a professional editor and known at work for being picky. (It is my considered opinion that foreign-language majors as a rule know English better than English majors.)

I know I got a few of these right – the water and the lace one, I think. Great comments on your quiz.

so, why you gotta call a girl out like that? )
in all seriousness though, I didn’t think much about an age difference btw you and DH. I figured it was a trick question!!
as for lace. if I can do it, you can do it. borrow your DH’s cajones and dive in!

Somehow I managed to miss the gist of your quiz. Okay, yeah, I can be pretty dumb at times. Say I was tired, it was late, I certainly wasn’t paying attention. At least I entered stuff pertaining to me for the first few questions then it started to dawn on me – duh. I want to try again! I’m sure I could have score at least a 40!
