A Curious Mind

I mentioned one time that my boss likes giving personality tests.  He gave some kind of test to a bunch of applicants for two available positions in our office and, out of 14 people, he was only satisfied with the score outcome for one of them :)  So, today I decided to take a personality test.  I know I took a few types of these tests in college, but I wasn't sure I remembered the outcome.  I ended up taking it on a couple different websites because I wanted to make sure it was not a fluke.  That, in itself, probably says something about my personality....ha!  

Pushing Send

I clicked on TOOLS and checked all my spelling

Don't remember all the rules that apply to sentence building-

but I wrote what I meant and now I'm only second guessing myself

I've read this note 5 times; made new paragraphs where they fit.  Checked my commas, parentheses, and now I am just biting my lip....

I know I need to push this key....this SEND.

How long will the strength elude my fingertip????

So, I emailed Brad to let him know what I ended up with and he emailed back ...

From: Brad Foster 

To: Foster, Heather B.
Subject: Re: You'll love this!

I already knew that!  Is there a book to figure out how to deal with you people!?

Not sure of the answer to that question, but I could probably write him one....ha!  Wouldn't that be kind-of fun to write your spouse a book about how to treat you.

He's an ENFP :)

That is PURRRRR-FECT!

Shhhh....listen.....Ah, quiet....it is precious!  It is pretty crazy how those tests can tell you so much about yourself....I read about all my strengths and weaknesses....enlightening.... and was like, "that helps!"...I'm really not being funny about that....it does help to know how your brain works, why you feel the way you do sometimes, and what you can do about it.  I was really interested to compare my results with Brad's.....especially in the roles we assume and our perspectives...I think couples should try to understand where the other one is coming from because we seem to tend to assume everyone is wired like us and they really are not...I KNOW, THAT IS SO SHOCKING!  The information on parenting styles was particularly interesting for our current stage of life. 

Here's a link to the test if you're interested...

I congratulated Brad for putting up with me...I don't know how he manages :)

This makes me think I should also thank my parents tonight :)
