I grew up with very pessimistic parents, and for most of my teen years I think I developed their logic about life and what to expect and I was 'half empty'.
Now I have children of my own and I have realised the benefits of teaching them about optimism and how if you can take a negative and turn it into a positive then it's never a wasted experience. In doing that I've come to realise that I'm now a 'half full' type :)

The four basic personality types:
(1) The glass is half full
(2) The glass is half empty
(3) Half full! No, wait, half empty! No... uhh... what was the question...?
(4) Hey, I ordered a cheeseburger!
Guess I'll be a number (3), then... :-)

Good question. While some people can be eternally half-empty or half-full, there are those who are half-full in early part of their life but just run out half-empty in latter part of their life when their life is running out. I would say that it is tougher to be half-full when you are in your sixties (waiting for death) compared to when you are in your twenties(waiting for life). Presently, I am try to be half-full most of the time but am fluctuating between half-full and half-empty. :)

Are you allowed to answer your own questions?
Perhaps you should have asked us wether we think you are half a looney or a full looney.
Is that a positive enough answer for you?

More often than not, I'm a half-full sort of bloke myself. Half-empty sorts are loser, who'd come third in a duel.

Mine is half full and I am looking for a way to replenish it before it is too late. Like you best buy gas before you get too far from the next station.

Half empty - but that's because I'm a pessimist and you know what one of those is?
A pessimist is an optimist with experience! :)
