You have got to be kidding me. Whenever I turn on my Instant Messenger, a pop-up window appears, giving me crap like “CNN Top Stories” or asking me to “Rate-a-Buddy!” Today, the pop-up window had a pop-up window.

Since it’s been — what? a week since I last posted the results of online personality quiz, here we go again:

I Am Ananse the Spider
Ananse the Spider of African folklore is both wise and foolish in the best tradition of tricksters. If you’re like Ananse, you’re clever and like to be thought well of, but sometimes you outsmart yourself. You’re always trying to figure the best angle and you’re intelligent and creative, but you have a crude streak. Still, you like to show off your knowledge and that makes you a good teacher..

Which Trickster are you?

Neat. Found through Thudfactor. I don’t remember ever reading too much about Ananse, even in my senior English seminar on trickster myths, but I was always amused how in African American folklore the name became “Aunt Nancy”.

This morning, I thought I’d make myself a tuna fish sandwich to take with me to work so that I wouldn’t have to run all over to find lunch at 12 o’clock. Unfortunately, the only bread in the apartment was covered in mold.

Oh, I thought. It’s going to be one of those sort of days.
