Mrs. Grinch

Well, it all started with a "discussion" on why we should/shouldn't get a Christmas tree. We have this discussion every year. Because we often travel around Christmas, my reasoning is that if we don't get a tree during Thanksgiving weekend, we shouldn't get one. I know, I'm Mrs. Grinch! You should have extreme empathy for Brian.

It made me think about my MBTI® personality type.

The purpose of the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator® (MBTI) personality inventory is to make the theory of psychological types described by C. G. Jung understandable and useful in people’s lives. The essence of the theory is that much seemingly random variation in the behavior is actually quite orderly and consistent, being due to basic differences in the ways individuals prefer to use their perception and judgment.

I am an ISTJ:

Quiet, serious, earn success by thoroughness and dependability. Practical, matter-of-fact, realistic, and responsible. Decide logically what should be done and work toward it steadily, regardless of distractions. Take pleasure in making everything orderly and organized – their work, their home, their life. Value traditions and loyalty. (Here's another ISTJ description.)

However, here is a "funny" description of the types. Perhaps, there's some truth. :-)

ISTJ: "Bean Counter"
Like the ESTJ* but with less vision.

*ESTJ:
"Stuffed Shirt" - No imagination, no flexibility, no common sense, no capacity for tolerance of others with different priorities.
