I had planned to do the online Jeopardy eligibility test when they announced it last week and, as sometimes happens, I completely spaced on my intention until 45 minutes to test time. Since I don't do anything fast, I gave up on taking the test. After all I had to get registered and I wasn't even sure I could type fast enough to complete the test in time anyway. I happened to be chatting with [personal profile] serenejournal on IM and mentioned that she might like to take the test. She had already taken the test years ago in person but I thought trying again might be fun. She suggested I do it but I explained I didn't think I had enough time. She offered to help. So with her lightning fast fingers, she had me registered and typed the answers to the test that I gave her over the phone.

I'm pretty sure I didn't qualify. Entirely too many answers didn't come to mind until well after the test was over. I actually did better than I expected and it was a great deal of fun! (I was pleased that our impromptu reasonable accommodation is completely within the rules too.)

I had fun, and it was interesting how tempted I was to help with the answers you didn't come up with. :-)

Why you cranky, my love? *smoooooooooooches*

*smoooooooooooooooches* Nothing unusual Buttercup. There are things I want to get done that I can't do on my own. I don't feel like being by myself today. I'm losing patience with all the rain (even though today is looking better). I got a bad attitude. :-)

Good thing we like us the bad boys. ;-)

If I didn't have to work, I'd come keep you company. As it is, I have Messenger turned on, and I'll be back to chitchat with you after my walk (around 45 minutes) if you feel like it. *smooches*

Darn -- wish I'd known about that test! I love Jeopardy!

Good luck -- I'm glad you had fun and did it, even if you don't qualify, but here's hoping you did!
