Apparently, I’m a Petunia

I’m not a gardener, but apparently I am a Petunia:

I am a
Petunia
What Flower
Are You?

“You are a tried and trusted friend who will be there for your friends when they need you. But you have a tendency to be nervous about doing things that go against the norm.”

Gee, doesn’t sound like me at all.

Yes, I am cautious about many things in life. Unlike My Liege, I thrive on structure, not constant change. Not sure how being “weird” and “strange” and “different”—all words used countless times (by others) to describe me—fit into the Petunia description, but I can’t argue with the description, either.

Next week, I’ll provide photographic evidence of my patheticism as a gardener. Watch this space!

P.S. Thanks to Kim Stagliano. I filched this quiz from her blog. Apparently, she’s a Snapdragon, which sounds a heckuva lot more entertaining than Petunia, but she declined to include the description for Snapdragon in her blog post, so I’m taking that to mean she’s just as boring as I am and trying to hide it! Hah!

I'm irritated because my posts won't publish.

  1. Cindy, I got Snapdragon, so here’s what it says:

    “Mischief is your middle name, but your first is friend. You are quite the prankster that loves to make other people laugh.”

    That really doesn’t fit me. I have a sense of humor but I’m hardly a prankster. I do like to make people laugh though, but more by being outrageously opinionated than pulling pranks. Oh, well. I may steal this one from you for my blog when I’m looking for a quick topic.

  2. Thanks, Linda!

    Well, see, that description fits me, too. Like you, I don’t pull pranks to make people laugh, either, but I have a healthy sense of humor. If I can’t make my hubby laugh at least once a day, I feel…off.

    Being a prankster, to me, sounds like pulling practical jokes. That’s not me. But being a goof is.

  3. Mine says I’m a Canna.
    “You stand up for what you believe in, even if it gets in the way of what other people think. You are proud of yourself and your accomplishments and you enjoy letting people know that.”

    Does that sound a little conceited to you? I don’t know, I don’t think of myself as enjoying letting people know. Hhhhmmmm. And there seemed to be a lot of questions for that flower quiz. Oh, well. Thanks for letting me play!

  4. Lexi, I think that’s a great description. It says you’re not a wallflower (little pun).

    There *were* a lot of questions — too many! I always get tripped up on those quizzes when none of the answers for a question pertain to me.

  5. Fun, Cindy,
    I am a Daffodil You have a sunny disposition and are normally one of the first to show up for the party. You don’t need too much attention from the host once you get there as you are more than capable of making yourself seen and heard.

    🙂 Nothing like a snapdragon. Oh well. Thanks for posting!

  6. Hi Diana,

    Your comment came through twice, so I deleted the first one. It said the same thing, just looked only half-way written. 🙂

    All I can say, Diana, my friend, is that after Dallas, I’m pretty sure you ARE a Daffodil.

  7. I’m a daffodil too! 🙂 (Hey Diana, we met in Dallas in the bar and also when I was waiting for my ride with my bald hubby outside the hotel on Sunday, lol)

    I stink at these quizzes, though. My answers usually fall somewhere in between the choices that are given…
