The interesting thing about this is that I am or have been half the things that it suggested, to a greater or lesser extent. On the other hand, many of the rest seem to have been thrown in virtually at random - I cannot draw, I am not Laurence Llewelyn-Bowen, and have no interest in a career involving cutting aardvarks in half and preserving them in formaldehyde (although the potential for being paid three thousand pounds a go for putting some stripes on a wall does sound quite appealing). But you knew all of those things already.

By the way, it's only now that this got me thinking about it that I've noticed the complete lack of "What background character from Star Wars/painter/French subway station are you?" quizzes on my Friends page for at least the past year. Well done.
