Tag.


So I was tagged and given a major award. I don't know what the award is - but it's a MEME, perhaps it's all about me and given to those who have a healthy amount of narcissism. There are apparently rules to this award - so in order to make it legitimate here they are -

The Premio MEME Blog AwardRules:

A. List 7 personality traits about yourself.

B. Tag/award 7 blogs that deserve such fine recognition for the personalities that they share with the blogging world.

A-1: There isn't much I remember from my first year of college - for the first ten months - I really only remember three-to-four of them clearly. I've tried to wipe most of it from my memory with lots and lots of therapy. However - I do remember from Psych 101 that there are typically 5 personality traits: OCEAN

Openness: I think that had to do whether or not you were emotionally available for stimuli. Like the Arts or Creativeness. I think I have a healthy dose of that.

Conscientiousness : I remember that being more anal retentive. Not very spontaneous. . . I don't think I have much of that.

E . .. .. . : I can't remember what that one was.

Agreeableness: Compassionate. I think that's the hard to say "No" complex. . . I have a hearty dose of that. . . don't ask the boys about that though.

Neurotic. . . Throwing a conniption fit. If I don't have enough caffeine in the system I get quite irritable.


I'm being very conscientious now - because I can't let go the fact that I don't remember what 'E' is . . . extrovert? energetic? I don't remember. I'm leaning toward extrovert - because it seems like a psych 101 answer. . . but I like to be around folks, but also like to have my alone time.

B2: How about the first seven people to visit the site after I post this? We have the Feedjit counter so we will know where in the world you will be - I'm guessing the Sri Lanka dude/ette won't participate. So we'll narrow it down to the first seven of the regular folks who visit and actually read or listen to the posts.

Playing Well With Others

Thanks to Darsden for tagging me (in elementary school I would often punch the kid who was 'IT' in the throat if they tried to tag me, because I wasn't that fast of a runner) I am going to try and play along (this time) Dars - it's because you've been so kind and well, after the incident in 1983 - it's been mandated that I attempt to play well with others. . .
