The Morning After

Ok... so apparently drinking heavily and blogging is just as detrimental to my health as drinking and driving. I'll leave up the last post as a badge of shame and pride on my online chest. Needless to say (but I'll say it anyways) I got into a box of wine last night after fighting with a friend. Also being most of my friend's favorite drunk really does not encourage modesty on my part... and no one else will drink the box of wine... so I had maybe a liter... Yeah... You know... Within half an hour... ...

So I've finished setting up my e-harmony profile (it only took years...er... hours). And I have a great time laughing at their evaluation of my personality. Normally I throw personality tests for a loop, the best I've ever taken was the Myers briggs that labels me as an INTJ. All other tests seem to get confused by my paradoxical and contradictory way of balancing logic and creativity to march to my own beat and look like I'm walking in line all at the same time.

So e-harmony thinks this of me:

In the category of Agreeableness
I am fair, considered, collaborative, responsive, sensible, diplomatic, contemplative, indulgent, and rational.

In the category of Openness
I am original, inventive, thinker, brave, eccentric, avant-grade, out-of-touch, and unique

In the category of Emotional Stability
I am adaptable, engaged, able to cope, passionate, perceptive, flexible, receptive, aware and avid.

In the category of Conscientiousness
I am impulsive, instinctive, intuitive, sometimes inefficient, procrastinator, and rule-breaker.

In the category of Extraversion (yes they did misspell extroversion, and I noticed it)
I am thoughtful, modest, reflective, private, introverted, careful, restrained, and meditative.

Interesting for the most part. The lengthy descriptions of these tell me that I am "the best of both worlds and able to balance X and Y equally" in everything except in the category of "Conscientiousness" where the extended description says basically that I am a slacker with no regard for rules, routines, guidelines, deadlines, or structure. This is entirely not true as I am reasonably predictable and boring as a person... A slacker yes, but totally spontaneous and off the wall, no. Oh well. I have made my personality profile public, so we will see if anyone actually checks it out (as I think it will notify me... that may only be if I pay though...).

Well, have a good day you folks, I'll catch you on the flip side, and hopefully sober again.
