What Kind of American English Do You Speak?
You Are a Peanut Butter and Jelly Sandwich
You life your life in a free form, artistic style.
You are incredibly creative and at times, quite messy.
Deep down, you are a kid at heart. And you aren't afraid to express it.
Your best friend: The Grilled Cheese Sandwich
Your mortal enemy: The Club Sandwich
What Kind of Sandwich Are You?
You Are Soft Serve
You are laid back, peaceful, and accepting.
You are easy to please, and you enjoy letting others do things their way.
People might be surprised to know that you're experimental and funky - at least in your own mind.
You are open to wherever life takes you, even if it's very unconventional.
Your Brain is Creative
You have a dreamy mind, full of fancy and fantasy.
You have the ability to stay forever entertained with your thoughts.
People may say you're hard to read, but that's because you're so internally focused.
But when you do share what you're thinking, people are impressed with your imagination.
What Historic Woman Are You?
Queen MedbQueen Medb was an Irish queen, and what a queen! She ruled HER WAY or the HIGHWAY. When arguing with her husband over who had the greater fortune, she got so mad that she called a war on a neighboring kingdom to capture a bull so that she'd be wealthier than her husband. She was impulsive, temperamental, and passionate, just like you. But try and be a little calmer.

You Are: 40% Dog, 60% Cat
You and cats have a lot in common.
You're both smart and in charge - with a good amount of attitude.
However, you do have a very playful side that occasionally comes out!
You Are Tomato Soup
You are open minded and curious about the world. You can help but learn as much as you can about things.
You are introverted, intellectual, and introspective. In other words, you have a big brain... and you use it.
You are a bit of a culinary expert, and you are an excellent cook.
You know how to balance delicate flavors well and can whip up a mean bowl of soup.
About me: Well I have spent my life in newspapers. I started out in classified advertising and had a radio commercial about me and my ad partner. It was hilarious and we got very tired of hearing it but I still have it on a cassette tape. LOL!!
I met my husband at a newspaper. He was an editor while I worked in classified ads. I didn't want to be in advertising. I wanted the newsroom. I finally got my chance at reporting and journalism in New Jersey when my husband was night editor of a newspaper there.
I wrote feature stories, articles for the Religion page and the weekend section. I also took my first paid photo.
From there I went on to be a correspondent for other papers and then became a reporter and then finally my dream as a managing editor of a newspaper in Culver, Indiana.
I am an award winning writer. I won first place in the Hoosier State Press Association for Best coverage deadline reporting on the murder of a 12 year old girl who was beaten to death by her father with a rifle stock.
First place in the Hoosier State Press Association for non deadline reporting for a story with my husband on the death of our son ..he died from SIDS.
First place in the Hoosier State Press Association for best column writing for my column "Lady You're History."
Second place for non deadline news coverage.
First place from the Indiana Federation of Press Women for feature writing on a story about Reindeer.
Third place from the Indiana Federation of Press Women for meeting coverage.
Honorable from Community Newspapers Holdings Incorporated for a story.
I put all this here not to brag or gloat but for my friends. You all know some of it but now perhaps it will give you an idea of what I've done. I love this work but can no longer work in it due to the amount of stress it causes.
I also wrote columns once in awhile online for Hal Lindsey's Oracle and found news stories for the site.
