Since my friends seem to be into playing games such as figuring out which Star Trek character they are, I thought I'd add this into the mix. One of my current favorite t.v. shows is "Monk" on USA. If you don't know, Adrian Monk is a former homicide detective for the San Francisco PD. He works as a consultant solving murder investigations for them. He's like a Sherlock Holmes character in his ability to find clues. And he has total recall. He also has a myriad of phobias as well as Obsessive Compulsive Disorder.
I took the "Are You Monk-ish?" quiz on USA's Web site. Here are my results (don't laugh too hard):
Emily, you are more Monk-ish than most.
Wow! You're definitely more concerned with cleanliness and routine than the average person. This keeps you well organized, but your friends are probably making jokes about you behind your back. Take a deep breath, leave the hand sanitizer at home, go totally nuts and actually step on the cracks of the sidewalk once in a while. You'll see it's fun to occasionally break out of you comfortable cocoon.
I will mention this: the quiz only asks 10 questions, but if you take it more than once, you'll see that the questions are not the same each time. So, if they ask the right ones, you may find that you're even more monk-ish than you first thought!
Oh, and I'm not the one with the mammoth container of Purell in my office.
Take the quiz.

Ok, I'll bite..... I took the test and I am a little Monk-ish. It said: "You've got a few Monk-ish tendencies, but they're totally natural. You're more go-with-the-flow than grab-the-flow-and-redirect-it-so-it's-straight-and-symmetrical. Keep the delicate balance you've got between keeping order and embracing spontaneity and you'll be set. Mr. Monk might very well be envious of you!
Yes, this is what happens at almost midnight when you have the computer in your townhouse bedroom. Good grief!

"This keeps you well organized, but your friends are probably making jokes about you behind your back."
Right on....consider yourself talked about.
Ok, so it's my planning period at work, and I'm staring at the chapter on participle phrases in the good ole' grammar book...so I took the test instead- which told me that I'm nowhere near Monkish...I quote, "Whoa! Though you're impulsive and carefree, your nonchalant (I'll use that vocab w/ the kids one day) approach leaves disarray and cockroaches in its wake. You already enjoy life to the fullest, but could learn a thing or two from Adrain Monk"
Hey, I'm not a slob! I should have stuck w/ my grammar lesson plan...which I've misplaced at the moment...
I'm just "a little monk-ish" as well. The jumbo purell is a reasonable precaution with as many hands as I shake (monk not lest ye be monked).
look...i'm not even capitalizing properly !
And I put a space before the exclamation point...
i'm nuts !
hmmm ...
are you still bothered by the shelves in my office, mr. kober?
Hey Emily! It's time to move past the Star Trek test and the Monk test and give KK the "official" Myers Briggs test.
And no, I am so not admitting to having 3 travel size purells in my purse.

my office has a window.
I can't believe it doesn't let you copy and paste.
(Is that Monk-ish?)
My results:
A Little Monk-ish.

Yeah.
You could've copied & pasted from your wife's.
My window has an office...
