September 09

Well, a great weekend was had.  Yesterday we went to our local Chicago bar to drink some beer and watch the Bears have their first victory of the season.  It was very nice to sit on the sunny patio while watching football.  I will long for these warm days come February, I am sure of it.  

I also got down with my crafty self.

 

I painted 85 clothespins.  I'll show you the entire project when I have finished.

And back to the challenge...

Take this personality test and respond to your results.

ISFP

Introvert (78%) - a strong preference of introversion over extraversion
Sensing (12%) - a slight preference of sensing over intuition
Feeling (12%) - a slight preference of feeling over thinking
Perceiving (11%) - a slight preference of perceiving over judging

I have heard of this test but have never taken it.  I went to this page for more information about my type.  There were a lot of things that were very spot on.

• you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into your value system
  

• ISFPs tend to be quiet and reserved, and difficult to get to know well

• they're likely to be animal lovers, and to have a true appreciation for the beauties of nature 

• need to have personal space

• they have an unusually deep well of caring for those who are close to them, and are likely to show their love through actions, rather than words

• ISFPs have no desire to lead or control others, just as they have no desire to be led or controlled by others
    

Basically, ISFP folks are a pretty "live and let live" kind of people and I think that's true about me.


What type of personality are you?  What is your favorite trait about your personality type? 

 

Jill in Real Life

Blogs are fun. I have “met” a few interesting and fun people through my blog. Lora puts it nicely over at Fever; people I blog with.

Sometimes it’s hard to come across the same way in my blog as I do in real life. Here are some real life facts about me.

I embarrass easy and my face turns red.

I have weird personal space issues with strangers

I have a quiet laugh

I am goofier in person

I get louder, the more I drink

Once I get going, I am a chatterbox

I love music, like, really love it. Symbiotic stuff.

I know a lot about weird things.

I love foreign languages. Especially Spanish and French. I can read and write a little, but suck at speaking.

I am good at dispensing advice, however, not so great at taking it.

I come across as more patient than I actually am.

I also come across nicer than I probably really am. :)

I’ve met most of my good friends on cigarette breaks or at the bar.

If I had your address, I’d send you a Christmas card.

I get bored easily.

I make lists when I am out of blog inspiration. Hopefully, it will come back soon.

Monday, Monday

I love Mondays these days. Mondays are now my "Fridays." Needless to say, I am a very happy camper today.

I am happy to see the summer come to an end. I am looking forward to fall even though I have to take the semester off from school. Maybe I'll sign up for guitar lessons or something. I like the feeling of being expected to show up somewhere once a week.

Any ideas for a new hobby to take up for the next five months?
