Because I am totally a narcissist...

...I do surveys about myself whenever (and from wherever) I find them. I am posting the link to this blog. But, the rules are easy. Cut, paste, and bold (or italicize) the things you've done. (I will be adding my notes in parentheses. Again - narcissism won't allow me to simply bold not add at least some extensive comments.)
