A small update and much memage

Sep 26, 2007 18:34

Woke up this morning, took off my CPAP mask , and my nose started to run as my sinuses went wild. Came home 4 hours early today, just because it was driving me nuts, despite taking a DayQuil capsule. Now I've got Benadryl going and it seems to be finally working. I am slightly relieved that I think this is allergy rather than a cold.

This would also have been a damn near perfect fishing day... :( The latest heat wave broke and we're back into the 70s again (finally!)

About the memage below:
* Ironic that the two question Enneagram test is a little more accurate than the 70 question one which follows. (But then again, the two questions were pretty darn leading.)
* Interesting that the Myers-Briggs now gives me INFP. Fourteen-fifteen years ago it gave me ENFJ. (But the I/E has always been pretty borderline for me and I know I'm sometimes introvert, sometimes extrovert. The Perceive vs. Judging does surprise me a little.)
* Cowboy! Oh, yeah, that fits! Especially the Eastwood pic. :)
* Odin! Oh, yeah, that's where I want to be... :)

Apologies for the memespam below.... I don't think I've ever posted this many and multiple before.

Your Score: 4- the Individualist

Thanks for taking the test !



you chose BY - your Enneagram type is FOUR (aka "The Romantic")

"I am unique"

Romantics have sensitive feelings and are warm and perceptive.

How to Get Along with Me

  • Give me plenty of compliments. They mean a lot to me.
  • Be a supportive friend or partner. Help me to learn to love and value myself.
  • Respect me for my special gifts of intuition and vision.
  • Though I don't always want to be cheered up when I'm feeling melancholy, I sometimes like to have someone lighten me up a little.
  • Don't tell me I'm too sensitive or that I'm overreacting!


What I Like About Being a FOUR
  • my ability to find meaning in life and to experience feeling at a deep level
  • my ability to establish warm connections with people
  • admiring what is noble, truthful, and beautiful in life
  • my creativity, intuition, and sense of humor
  • being unique and being seen as unique by others
  • having aesthetic sensibilities
  • being able to easily pick up the feelings of people around me



What's Hard About Being a FOUR
  • experiencing dark moods of emptiness and despair
  • feelings of self-hatred and shame; believing I don't deserve to be loved
  • feeling guilty when I disappoint people
  • feeling hurt or attacked when someone misundertands me
  • expecting too much from myself and life

    Your Score: INFP - the Healer

    You scored 0% I to E, 10% N to S, 9% F to T, and 84% J to P!

    You are more introverted than extroverted. You are more intuitive than observant, you are more feeling based than thinking based, and you prefer to go with the flow rather than having a plan. Your type can best be summarized by the word "Healer", which belongs to the larger group of idealists. You have a capacity for caring that is deeper than most. You strive for unity, are fascinated by the battles between good and evil, and can be something of an idealist. Only 1% of the population shares your type.

    As a romantic partner, you are usually supprtive and nuturing, however, you have a high need for individuality. Harmony is extremely important to you as you are very affected by conflict and tension, which also makes you resist confronting your partner directly about problems. When you get angry, you usually blame yourself, rather than your partner. You can also be stubborn and unyielding when you feel you are being criticized or mistreated. You feel the most appreciated when your partner listens to you carefully. You need to be understood. You need to hear your partner express their feelings, the more often, the better.
    Your group summary: idealists (NF)

    Your type summary: INFP

    Your Score: a Man with No Name

    You scored 7 Honor, 3 Justice, 7 Adventure, and 6 Individuality!



    It's one thing to be a gunslinger. It's another to wander into town, leave nothing but a trail of those who'd try your skill and take the town's gratitude and cash with you. Hero or villan? It's all in how you look at it and whose side you're on.

    Cigar in your teeth and colt on your hip, you are ready to step into the hazy desert horizon. You'll do just fine.

    Your Score: Odin

    You scored 64 Wisdom, 40 Sexuality, 45 Strength, and 63 Goodliness!



    The Allfather, the head of the pantheon, blood-brother to Loki, you are the enigmatic, one-eyed man who heads everything. Thought and Memory are your ravens, who tell you everything on the planet. You hung from the world tree to learn the secrets of the runes, you seduced your way to the mead of poetry, and even cast your own eye into a well to receive the water of wisdom. You try everything within your awesome power to prevent the end, but your own efforts only serve to hasten it. You are capricious, but never malevolent. You and your mysterious brothers fashioned this world, and you will go down with it, victim of the foul wolf Fenrir.
