Still an INTJ

On one of the online forums I frequent, someone posted a new thread about being an introvert. I was amazed at how many people feel exactly the way I do. I used to think of myself as shy, but as I've gotten older, I don't think I'm shy anymore... I'm just an introvert. I also used to be an INTJ on the Myers-Briggs personality test, and I thought that had changed until I took it again today. And damn, it hasn't--I just took it, and I'm still an INTJ (that site is very circa-1995)! After reading about it, I fit that profile to a "T". Anyway, I'm quiet, but I actually enjoy being around other people. I do like to stay in sometimes, but I like going out, too. It's just hard for me to strike up a conversation with a stranger, so it's been difficult for me to meet new people down here. I've gotten a lot better over the years, though, especially with people that are outgoing and like to talk--I find myself more open/willing to speak up more with that kind of person. Wow, enough rambling.

I went out to the barn for a couple of hours on Saturday. Richard and Susan were gone, so I had the whole place to myself. It was nice. I bonded with the horses--I really love Wal; as psycho as she can be, she can also be a real sweetie. While I was in her stall, she put her head down near me, and I started petting her nose, and she just put her head into my stomach and stayed there. Awww... I'll miss her. :( Although, Susan did say I was welcome to come back any weekend I have available.

I had a flat on Sunday's solo ride. My brand new rear tired. Grrr... I was having an awesome ride, too. I'm going to have to get another new tire at some point. :(
