Who doesn't love to receive packages in the mail?

&nbsp;

On Day 325, I received TWO!

&nbsp;

<span style="color: #3366ff; font-size: large;"><strong>Surprise Package #1:</strong></span>  FASCINATING stuff!  Remember when I took the <strong><a href="http://www.diaryofalatebloomer.com/2011/07/02/day-275-my-f-score-is-p-whats-yours/" target="_blank">f-score personality test</a></strong>?  (Many of you took it along with me and graciously shared your results in comment section!)  Author <strong><a href="http://sallyhogshead.com/" target="_blank">Sally Hogshead</a></strong>, inspirational dynamo that she is, not only acknowledged my blog post and tweets by commenting and tweeting back, but also sent me these goodies in the mail.  I'm wondering when she sleeps.  I want to know her secrets.  All of them.  She is my new idol.

My f-score:  Passion.  Oo la la!

For those of you whose f-score was "Mystique", I was oh so envious.

&nbsp;

Sally sent me these nifty little cards, and since the theme of this year's blog is living curiously, I was naturally drawn to "CURIOSITY".  Look what I found underneath!  Does this mean I can join your Mystique club?  :-D
