I have been watching a series regarding serial murderers and the profilers that catch them. After a few days of this I began wondering yesterday, "What kind of profile do I have?"

To have a profile you need to have a reason to be profiled.

"Okay, so what kind of murderer would I be?"

This line of thought entertained me on my drive home. I consulted my husband on the issue, and even put the question to him. His was a passionate diatribe. In short: political assassin. I could have guessed that.

Me? He thought that anything that had pentagrams and other 'occult symbolism' would immediately point to me. Charming. Really. However, if I had a mental electrical fire I might be persuaded to do a little blood work for Lucifer or a minion of decent rapport. *shrugs*

I also realized I don't have the kind of drive it takes to be a murderer. For one... oh my god, the effort, the traveling. I really don't care about people so much as to interrupt my day to go snip one off. *shrugs*

But still... I think my best M.O. would be one where I could convince people to do the job for me. Cult leader would pin me down, for sure.

But then I got crafty, and it caused me giggles for the rest of the day.

I could put on the "Whole armor of Christ" and kill in God's name.

NO ONE WOULD EVER CATCH ME. *laughs*

But the *most* interesting of all this was when I was driving to the store yesterday evening. I thought to myself...
you know, after watching a series about murders you asked yourself what kind of murderer would be. You never once thought you could be a victim or anything.

Didn't really follow that, but I found it interesting.
