- If you were a bird, you'd be a scaly-breasted lorikeet.
- If you were a day of the week, you'd be Sunday, when people watch TV and have BBQs.
- If you were a time of day, you'd be the afternoon when the sun is going down but everything is still sluggishly active and it's all just warm enough.
- If you were a planet, you'd be the Sun, because you're the friggin' star.
- If you were an animal, you'd be a tiger. Obviously. Or maybe a bull (not a cow, mind you, but a bull--not to suggest that you're all manly or anything).
- If you were a direction, you'd be down into the earth where your feet are so firmly planted, where you are rooted to your familiarities like a tree takes to the soil it was born in.
- If you were a piece of furniture, you'd be a coffee table.
- If you were a liquid, you'd be an orange or strawberry italian soda.
- If you were a gemstone, you'd be topaz or carnelian.
- If you were a tree, you'd be a...I'm not sure, let me give that some thought. You'd be like a mequite on steroids, probably.
- If you were a tool, you'd be a shovel, baby.
- If you were a flower, you'd be a cactus flower like a saguaro blossom.
- If you were a kind of weather, you'd be a merciless blue sky. I know you like the rain best, but that's why. Without the rain, you are a parched desert. The monsoons of others complete you like interlocking ecological puzzlepieces.

- If you were a taste, you'd be "good taste." :D
- If you were a scent, you'd be citrus/fruity.

- If you were a body part, you'd be ribs.
- If you were a facial expression, you'd be delirious maniacal laughter.
- If you were a song, you'd be "Friend In Low Places" by Garth Brooks; "Black Magic Woman" or "Oye Como Va" by Santana; or one of a number of Sublime songs.
- If you were a place, you, too, would be home. But not "my home" so much as the ideological concept of "home"--the hearth and home.
