I think my perfect ideal life would be me being a little gnome hermit living under a toadstool puttering away in nature. I have very introverted tendencies and feel that some Permie things definitely fit in with my comfort zone. It got me wondering if that might be a theme for other people who gravitate towards this sort of stuff.
I have done a lot of testing, and I am chunks of both, all of neither. Right down the middle. I avoid people, prefer to be alone, but really enjoy teaching groups, I chat with strangers all the time, and have fun, then go back into my cave.
Half of each list.
It's weird.
i’m another would-be gnome hermit. i have elements of extraversion in me - have been a performer in various ways at different times…but i never want to talk to people after i get off stage!
Don't know who is more introverted--self or husband. It is a miracle that we ever talked in the first place (we met at work, in a factory--so romantic!). (Note: we never dated any other people--ha!)
“If we are honest, we can still love what we are, we can find all the good there is to find, and we may find ways to enhance that good, and to find a new kind of living world which is appropriate for our time.” ― Christopher Alexander
My biggest regret is that I didn’t runaway from home in high school and live in a stick shelter in the north woods. Of course, the details get a little sketchy.
….give me coffee to do the things I can and bourbon to accept the things I can’t.
I'm quite extraverted, I enjoy people a lot, doing things, going places. I do notice that as I get older I need more alone time, and I don't like that about myself, it feels contrary to my nature, and yet its happening and I can't stop it from happening, trust me I tried.
I do Celtic, fantasy, folk and shanty singing at Renaissance faires, fantasy festivals, pirate campouts, and other events in OR and WA, USA.
