Which of Henry VIII's Wives Are You?

* pilfered from Jo! Minor's "Knit! Jo! Knit!" blog*

Congratulations!

You are Anna of Cleves!

Anna of Cleves got the royal shaft. She came all the way to England to become the fourth wife of Henry VIII. Once married to Anna, he refused to consummate the marriage, and called her the "Flanders Mare". Talk about a burn, considering that by this time, Henry was the fattest man in England and had a rotting syphilis sore on his leg.
Anna was miffed, but she was too sensible to let it ruin her fun.
She was given an annulment and a fat yearly allowance, and she threw extravagant parties and dined on delicacies for the rest of her life.

...The Same Sock...The Sock Meme...The Same Sock Meme.

*wink* I love playing with words. It makes me happy.

1. What’s your favorite sock yarn?

(please note that the word ‘yarn’ is singular. Just pick one. I know it’s hard.)

2. What’s your favorite type and brand of sock needle?

• Skacel Addi Turbo Lace 47" US0 - US2

• Sometimes the yarn they they wheesper, "HEY! I am a strongly variegated yarn...you cannot kneet me in no stinkin' pattern, mmmk!"

7 More Random Things About Me

I've been tagged by Laura aka KnittinKitties

Here are the rules:

* Each person tagged gives 7 random facts about themselves.
* Those tagged need to write in their blogs the 7 facts, as well as the rules of the game.
* You need to tag 7 others and list their names on your blog.
* You have to leave those you plan on tagging a note in their comments so they know that they have been tagged and to read your blog.

1. I have a tiny black mole on the bridge of my nose squarely between my eyes that is reminiscent of the East Indian "bindi". The red bindi is worn by a newly married bride as a show of commitment and a black dot placed on the chin or behind the ear is used to ward off evil, so I guess my "evil eye" is front and center. Wikipedia says, "The area between the eyebrows (where the bindi is placed) is said to be the sixth chakra, ajna, the seat of "concealed wisdom". According to followers of Tantrism, this chakra is the exit point for kundalini energy. The bindi is said to retain energy and strengthen concentration. [1]. It is also said to protect against demons or bad luck."
2. My knees creak, especially my right one which was injured when I was 12 when my cousin kicked it out of place while we were rough housing.
3. My second toe is slightly longer (couple of millimeters) than my big toe.
4. I have two chicken pox scars on my nose. One of either side.
5. I'm prone to sinus infections and bronchitis and am allergic to mold.
6. I'm anemic and take daily iron supplements.
7. I have a faint football shaped scar on my left index finger. I burned my left index finger when I was 6 years old trying to iron a washcloth AFTER my mom explicitly told me NOT TO TOUCH THE IRON.

Genghis Khunt
Random Brutal Sex Master (RBSM)



We almost called you Brutus the Uterus and attached this picture:


But we figured you wouldn't understand, and rightly so. We don't understand either.

So you are Genghis Khunt: master of man, bringer of pain--riding your way to conquest after conquest.

Your sexual avarice is legendary. You've already had an unusually high amount of experience, and, still you look for more. You intimidate many. You make no apologies.
Personality-wise, you're carefree and relatively easy-going.
You don't plan things out ahead of time; you tend to live in the moment.
Of course, this can cause some damage when the moment happens to include a screaming orgasm with his younger brother.
Hence the 'brutal' tag we've given you.
But you know what, take five seconds to lock the doors, and you'll be fine.
There's nothing wrong with a little sex, or a whole lot.

You are The Devil

Materiality. Material Force. Material temptation; sometimes obsession

The Devil is often a great card for business success; hard work and ambition.

Perhaps the most misunderstood of all the major arcana, the Devil is not really "Satan" at all, but Pan the half-goat nature god and/or Dionysius. These are gods of pleasure and abandon, of wild behavior and unbridled desires. This is a card about ambitions; it is also synonymous with temptation and addiction. On the flip side, however, the card can be a warning to someone who is too restrained, someone who never allows themselves to get passionate or messy or wild - or ambitious. This, too, is a form of enslavement. As a person, the Devil can stand for a man of money or erotic power, aggressive, controlling, or just persuasive. This is not to say a bad man, but certainly a powerful man who is hard to resist. The important thing is to remember that any chain is freely worn. In most cases, you are enslaved only because you allow it.
