Yep, this sounds about right …
You’re Alice’s Adventures in Wonderland!
by Lewis Carroll
After stumbling down the wrong turn in life, you’ve had your mind
opened to a number of strange and curious things.
As life grows curiouser and curiouser, you have to ask yourself what’s real and what’s the picture of illusion.
Little is coming to your aid in discerning fantasy from fact, but the line between them is so blurry that it’s starting not to matter.
Be careful around rabbit holes and those who smile too much,
and just avoid hat shops altogether.

You’re One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest!
by Ken Kesey
You’re crazy. This has led people to attempt to confine you to a safe place so that you don’t pose a danger to yourself or others. You feel like you pose a great danger to the man (or maybe the woman) or whatever else is keeping you down. But most of the time, you just end up being observed. Were you crazy before you were confined?

Doing it again, and answering evens instead of odds I got Alice in Wonderland.
Still, a theme of personal weirdness does seem to be emerging…

And distinguishing reality fom illusion is easy. Reality is the stuff that doesn’t make sense.

I like that phrase a lot too, truce, though I’m not sure I really want things to get any more curiouser …
Do you have to read it if you are it, Rain? I shouldn’t have thought so.
Um, thanks Nog. I’ll try to remember that when the line gets extra blurry.

You’re “The Mists of Avalon” by Marion Zimmer Bradley
You’re obsessed with Camelot in all its forms, from Arthurian legend to the Kennedy administration. Your favorite movie from childhood was “The Sword in the Stone”. But more than tales of wizardry and Cuban missiles, you’ve focused on women. You know that they truly hold all the power. You always wished you could meet Jackie Kennedy.
Never heard of it, never seen The sword in the stone, and never had the slightest wish to meet Jackie Kennedy – apart from that, spot on 😉
Women are lovely!

Actually, The Sword in the Stone was my favourite movie as a child! I also loved reading T.H. White’s The Once and Future King when I was a teenager.
Agree with you on Jackie though.

You’re Prufrock and Other Observations!
by T.S. Eliot
Though you are very short and often overshadowed, your voice is poetic
and lyrical. Dark and brooding, you see the world as a hopeless effort of people trying
to impress other people. Though you make reference to almost everything, you’ve really
heard enough about Michelangelo. You measure out your life with coffee spoons.
Interesting. Never cared for old ToilEtS myself, but I can see a J. Alfredness about my life. And his use of language was wonderful…

Very short? You??? Ha.
(for the record, Blues is about 6’4″)
Oh, or did that mean ‘short’ in another way?
The rest sounds quite right on… except maybe the coffee spoons thing – what the hell does that mean?
“your voice is poetic and lyrical”
That bit is quite true, Blues.
“Dark and brooding, you see the world as a hopeless effort of people trying to impress other people”
Well, we can guess who that refers to …

6’2″ is nearer the mark, you know… 😉
I have a feeling that the coffee spoons things is a direct quote from ‘The Lovesong of J Alfred Prufrock’, which does have one of the most marvelous openings of any 20th century poem;
Let us go then, you and I,
When the evening is spread out against the sky
Like a patient etherised upon a table;
And i must say that having just read the netire poem online, I’m immensely more impressed with it than I was as an undergraduate. Obviously I have caught up with sentiments expressed.
