You Are An ENFJ

The Giver You strive to maintain harmony in relationships, and you usually succeed. Articulate and enthusiastic, you are good at making personal connections. Sometimes you idealize relationships too much - and end up being let down. You find the most energy and comfort in social situations ... where you shine. In love, you are very protective and supporting. However, you do need to "feel special" - and it's quite easy for you to get jealous. At work, you are a natural leader. You can help people discover their greatest potential. You would make a good writer, human resources director, or psychologist. How you see yourself: Trusting, idealistic, and expressive When other people don't get you, they see you as: Bossy, inappropriate, and loud

bossy, inappropriate and loud definitely!

CAVEAT! i did skip some stuff. stuff with no words. and stuff by envy. i have no idea what the shouty japanese means. and also my ipod is teeny and therefore full of stuff i'm obsessing over. hence possible repeated artists....

J: it would appear that i am starting my working 2008 the same way i ended my working 2007.

F: I have removed my racist bingo from being top of my Scrabulous stats, phew!!!

M: monday, monday here again in tidy attire, with a gammy throat, late for work, and after a night of horribly disturbed sleep, bad dreams and mousey noises.

A: at a loose end? nothing to do?

M: WAHEY!!!!!

J: friday
♥ friends // family

J: brief, and to the point (makes a change!) because i am not feeling overly garrulous today. (makes a change!)

A: there are two good things about forgetting sarah marshall.

S: on friday, i posted this to angelv as a prediction of how my next week would turn out.

O: i'm off to play poker at the artillery arms this evening, 6.30ish kick off.

N: right. am i being an idiot? i generally work in print layout. i am in print layout now.

D: if you call yourself rapier chris i will assume:

thrilling.

also thrilling - last nights dream where i was attempting to become rafael benitez's PA. in crystal palace park. i kind of managed it, my first task was copying birthdays from his old diary to his new one. then i got left behind as he sped off, because an enormous cat was sitting on me. tried to catch him up in the posh dressing rooms, which were like some sort of escher picture, though without stairs, so it was very hard trying to get up them with a suitcase.

thanks, brain.

( because i am cold, tired and narky, here is a non-brain taxing meme of the year thingy... )

***

hah, nice to see those resolutions lasting any sort of time whatsoever, eh? i think i AM eating better, probably. hmmm.

( silly chrimbo meme )

is bristol a euphemism these days??

and why do my memes always appear to be race obsessed, eh?

***

i'm almost at the permanently grumpy end of the knackered spectrum at the moment. i do apologise if you have to put up with me at any point this week.

Who'd like an internet quizzy meme then? Stolen from THE WORLD.

( Ah g'wan, I'm bored, it's Friday, indulge me, etc etc.... )

While I’m here (oh lord, 3 posts in one day again, getting too much again woman, behave!) emmelinemay asked me about 3 of my interests. So, a meme. Just because. Kind of similar to one I did a while back but I’m doing it again. Ok? Good.

Comment and I will give you 3 interests on your profile-list for you to explain about. [If I can be bothered. Which means I probably won’t.]

obsessively hating furries
Heh, people like asking about this one! Exactly what it says. Furries. You are not right. You are actually Very Wrong. I have NO TOLERANCE AT ALL for your beliefs. I am a furry-racist. You aren’t big, you aren’t clever, and you make me a little bit sick. However I will look at anything anyone posts on the internet poking fun at you which will only serve to make me hate you more. I should stop that really, and ignore your existence.

the gin defence
I like gin. I like gin a lot. I drink too much gin. If I have drunk a lot of gin and done something stupid and don’t remember, it DOESN’T COUNT. The gin defence *is* recognised in a court of law. (Sssh, don’t disillusion me…) The gin defence also makes p_dan_tic’s life a misery from time to time. I try not to use it.

crazy medical grotesqueries
They’re just great, aren’t they? Having spent a few years at medical school there was a time when I knew a million freaky stories about things that could go wrong with the body and the exact pages of my textbooks to turn to to freak you out. And occasionally in anatomy spot tests they’d have the freaky things on display. In fact, anatomy departments are BRILLIANT in general. I still love finding out about weird stuff. How can that be alive? What is that? Which possibly comes across as horribly voyeuristic. But don’t you find it intriguing to see what can go wrong? And a little bit scary. Embryology is another fascinating subject. It’s all so clever and intricate. Really puts you off having children, certainly when it gets to the long shot not-how-it-should-be bit.

Films and books about carnivals and freakshows still inspire me.

I have got very bored this afternoon and made myself a facebook. I still don’t get it though. Mainly because no one I know appears to exist on it. Well, I can’t find anyone before I get bored anyway. Except for Phil, and I’m still in contact with him anyway. shewho verdict = RUBBISH. Well, unless I’ve never actually known anybody….
