Yoda

I went to a birthday party today. It was fun, the food was wonderful (my aunt is a great cook!), and I was able to visit with some family members I don't see too often. I was actually quite social! But this post has to do with my thoughts during my unsocial moment. :)

Being momentarily tired of conversation, I wandered over to the couch and began  wistfully to wish that society was structured in such a way that I could remove "The Confessions of St. Augustine" from where it was hidden in my purse and begin to read without appearing rude. Society being structured otherwise, I refrained from reading and let my thoughts wonder. I began thinking about a recent conversation with 102crew wherein I compared his personality type to that of a fictional character. I began to try and think of a fictional character that has MY personality type. I had, of course, read in various places that Yoda is an INFJ, but I, I said, am not very much like Yoda. Still, I began thinking about Yoda's little life.

I thought to myself, "How pleasant, to live as a hermit in a cozy little swamp, talking to oneself, philosophizing about The Force, cooking unusual dinners for the odd passerby. Hmm, I could enjoy such a life. Perhaps I am more like Master Yoda than I think!"

And THEN I thought, "Speaking of which,  this is not such a far off depiction of my real life existence, re-interpreted with a certain amount of creative license." *blinks*

And this was my cool/scary/funny/ironic thought for the day. So far. :-)
