You're both smart and innovative when it comes to ideas.
Maybe you'll find a cure for cancer - or develop the latest underground drug.

Under 12: You are a kid at heart. You still have an optimistic life view - and you look at the world with awe.

13-19: You are a teenager at heart. You question authority and are still trying to find your place in this world.

20-29: You are a twentysomething at heart. You feel excited about what's to come... love, work, and new experiences.

30-39: You are a thirtysomething at heart. You've had a taste of success and true love, but you want more!

40+: You are a mature adult. You've been through most of the ups and downs of life already. Now you get to sit back and relax.

Last night, for the second time in my life, I got pulled over.  I must say that it was by far my best experience of talking to a cop on the side of a road... I wonder how often a police man feels the need to pull someone over for going almost too slow...

My van, amidst the myriad of other problems it has right now, decided yesterday to get a leak in the radiator hose... or blow a water pump... actually i really don't know what is wrong with it...

I walked out to my car yesterday only to find a note on my windshield saying that i was leaking antifreeze.  Of course i looked under my car just to make sure... much to my chagrin there was a puddle so large that was beginning to flow into other parking spots. 

Caleb came up (luckily he was coming up anyway to hang out with me while i worked) and brought two bottles of antifreeze with him... we refilled it, in the rain, and proceeded home at around 10pm... 

On the way home, the darn thing kept overheating, so i kept stopping to let it cool down.  Finally i just got sick of that i decided just to try to make it home by going really slowly, with my hazards on... thats where Mr. police man came into the story. No, officer, I have not been drinking....haha  he didnt ask if i was...

On 35W somewhere before 90th....

Officer:  hi, are you having car trouble

me: YES!  I am so so sorry you had to pull me over.  I was trying really hard to stay above the minimun...

Officer: no, no you were doing ok.  What seems to be the problem here?  (do they always say that? I should ask caleb if that is part of the training)

me: well my car is overheating... i just dumped a bunch of antifreeze into it and i am just trying to make it home.  I am so sorry you had to pull me over! (i think i said that about 15 times during our conversation)  I was trying really hard to go fast enough, i just didnt want it to over heat more (if thats possible)

Officer: (as he is looking at my lisence) no, no its ok... its probably not often that you go this slow...

Me: Yeah, i don't think i have ever gone this slow in my entire life!!!! 

My head:  why the HECK would you just say that to a cop?!?!?!

Officer: Well, (he hesitates as he looks at my address and realizes that we are in Bloomington and i still have to make it to Burnsville... I didnt not offer up the information that i was coming from Roseville...;)   )  ok.... good luck making it home...

me: thank you so much, I am so sorry about this...

Officer: (gives me directions about how to safely get back on the road)  Good luck!

I drove a little faster after that, prayed for a good parking spot... got a great one which is unheard of at that time of night..  stopped my car and was immediately surrounded by a huge cloud of smoke... i do not doubt that God made that van hold out until I got home...
