self-aware

This little exercise is fascinating - I've picked six words that describe the way I see myself (too bad "Slightly Neurotic" wasn't one of them and "nervous" was too specific) and now it's up to you, friends and Internet strangers, to pick six that you think describe me, and we see how well we agree.

One disclaimer, though, if you pick "happy", I will mock you. Happy is never an adjective that I think should be applied to personality - only to mood or periods of life. A person described as having a happy personality is really just someone with a cheerful attitude and a good grip on their personal baggage. Happy! Pah! Who's happy?

Fire away, and if you make your own Johari, leave the link in my comments. I'd love to see it!

we interrupt this week's project...

... for a brief musical number.

Oh, the geeks. They are my people.

apropos of nothing

When I was very little, I'd always hear my mother say, "with friends like THAT, who needs enemies," and I never understood what she meant because little children are incapable of understanding sarcasm or wit, the dummies.

I think this is what she meant.
