Observations on being an extrovert

[scooterbird]

I don't usually think of myself as an extrovert, considering that I do need my private time as much as anyone, I would guess. But when I consider my current goals (I'll provide a link to 43 Things, if anyone is really interested), I realize now how many of them involve other people. My main preoccupation of late has been the play, and I suppose

OK, I'll bite. 43 things? And what's the non-profit?

As for theatre being extroverted, it is to an extent. I was a reasonably shy kid hiding behind an outsized persona. Theatre was a way to have a voice and be out there, but it wasn't you - it's a way to try on different characters without neccessarily settling on just one. I went to theatre school, but discovered my ego would not withstand the constant rejection of audiitons and took another path.

43 Things is kind of an online to-do list for keeping track of one's life goals. I'm on it here.

Oh, and the non-profit: I'd like to create a company that would run elections for parties that the state will not run them for - and simultaneously, advocate for election reform, ballot access, and other measures of actual democracy for all Marylanders.

Obviously there are a great deal of regulations to pay attention to before beginning, but it's still in the planning stages.

Interesting. I've had a Pina Coloda at Trader Vic's, but I think the experience can be replicated more locally at Vera's White Sands. Keep planning to do the labyrinth at Bon Secours in Marriotsville, but keep getting sidetracked when I have the time. Absinthe - did enough mind altering substances in the late seventies/early eighties. The non-profit sounds good, though it would be a handfull.

As for have more sex - I'm off for an evening of adding to my lifetime total :-P
