I took a little personality test on this site (click the thingy above). Of course, I pretty much knew this info already. :)
This info (below) is really what shocked me. It's way beyond accurate. I read this stuff & literally my jaw dropped. Whoa...this fits me to a "T"!
"ISFJs are characterized above all by their desire to serve others, their "need to be needed." In extreme cases, this need is so strong that standard give-and-take relationships are deeply unsatisfying to them; however, most ISFJs find more than enough with which to occupy themselves within the framework of a normal life."
"modest, not confrontational, easily hurt, observer, prone to crying, not spontaneous"
"ISFJs have a rich inner world that is not usually obvious to observers. They constantly take in information about people and situations that is personally important to them, and store it away. This tremendous store of information is usually startlingly accurate, because the ISFJ has an exceptional memory about things that are important to their value systems. It would not be uncommon for the ISFJ to remember a particular facial expression or conversation in precise detail years after..."
"At work, ISFJs contribute loyal, sympathetic, consistent, and considerate service to others. They are know for their kindness and for their willingness to go to any length to help those in need. They take the practical needs of people into account when they do their work, and their strong follow-through skills allow them to carry out organizational goals. They do at least what is expected to them and oftentimes more, without attracting attention to themselves. They are painstaking and responsible with detail and routine, and feel it is important to have the right things in the right places at the right times."
"The primary desire of the Protector SJ is to be of service to others, but here "service" means not so much furnishing others with the necessities of life, as guarding others against life's pitfalls and perils, that is, seeing to their safety and security."

Wow. Having only known you online from your blog, I would have never guessed that you are an introvert! You just look like you would be the type to talk to anybody easily about anything. Is your hubby the extrovert?
Rachel,
I am soooooo not a people-person. I would be completely fine if given a job in a cubicle behind a computer screen where I never had to interact with people all day. It's that face to face, ice-breaking, small talk thing that throws me for a loop. Once I know you, we can sit & talk all day long. I just don't do surface level garbage. If I have a friend, they know me pretty intimately. I don't have many "acquaintances"...only good friends. ya know?
On the flipside of that, I am a teacher & LOVE the interaction with little people!
Larry & I are extreme homebodies. We love to hide out in our little cocoon & just enjoy each other & our kids. In the 14+ years we've been married, I can count on my 2 hands the number of times we've had someone over for dinner.
So...do ya still like me? :)
