Me

Me, I'm shy, online and in 'real' life. Always have been, probably always will be. This means that people have called me; snobbish, standoffish, superior, rude, arrogant, quiet, shy and thoughtful (depending on how generous people feel at the time). Until they take a few minutes to talk to me, well, hopefully they still find me thoughtful and I am definitely quiet. I'm an introvert, I've completed Myers Briggs surveys and the like, and they all say I'm introverted and considered in my actions. I like to sit back and listen to others and form my opinions or mold my opinions. (BTW, introverted in this context means drawing your energy from within rather than from external sources, which means if I'm down, then its up to me to bring myself up, others 'upness' doesn't really help me)
I am surrounded by extroverts. My closest friends are always extroverts. I love extroverts. These are the people who are putting themselves out there completely and testing the waters for me. I see they are 'safe' and then I continue walking/running/skipping after them. 
So in honour of my extroverted friends, I'm going to put myself out there a teeny tiny bit and say hello to some of the bloggers I love to visit every day. Just to introduce myself and so that I don't seem snobbish, rude or ungrateful. 
I'm really amazed that people can put themselves 'out there' to the world. I love it, I find it very liberating and thank you to those people, they make my days so much more enjoyable.
