There has been quite a bit of talk about personalities on several blogs lateley. So I figured that I would share my type here I am an I N F J (56 38 12 22) personality type.Want to know your type? Take this quick "test" . You can also check out the personality page to find out more about personality types.With that said...I enjoy music immensely. I love finding or being introduced to new unique sounds. That being said, I try to get out to support the local music talent around town when possible.I love roller coasters. I think that my wiring allows me to really enjoy the rapid changes in G's. My favorite part of flying is the take off and landing. The rest is just boring filler. I considered taking classes to learn to fly planes but it just seemed too expensive.I do want to learn to sail and scuba dive. I took some sailing classes, but due to circumstances beyond my control, I have been unable to pursue it further.Movies, I love movies however, much like my music tastes, I like movies that arent just a rehash of some tired old plot.I finally landed my dream job a while back. I am one of the fortunate people that actually do something they enjoy for a living. There were quite a few days when I had those "I can't believe they pay me to do this" moments. However life is about adapting to change. I struggled a bit with what to do when the love of my life had to move to Tampa. Long distance relationships as you know seldom work out. For a year I was making 500 mile trips from Atlanta to Tampa and back almost monthly. Finally, I decided it was time to move or call it quits while part of me agonized over leaving my dream job, family, and friends in Atlanta, that paled in comparison to being without Barbara. So after finding a job (which was much easier than I expected). I packed a few things in my car moved the rest into storage and took off to Tampa. Within three months I asked Barbara to marry me and we were married. We currently are in the process of buying a house and it looks like Tampa will be our official new home. I do love Tampa but miss family and friends back in Atlanta. I hope once we get settled into the house we will have more time to visit back home. I look forward to making new friends here in Tampa as well as having friends From Atlanta visit here.As far as programming. I actually ended up programming am in a weird quest to do some kind of work in animation. I was always amazed with animation whether it be flip books or stop motion with puppets. I wanted to go to school to be a cartoonist my artistic abilities were not, as it turns out, in the area of drawing. Then computer animation caught my eye. I figured it'll be like a collaboration with the computer, the Computer will do the drawing and I just have to come up with the stories, right? right... I didn't have the funds to go to an art school. At the time the classes seemed to be really expensive and there weren't many schools offering classes in computer animation, it was still in its infancy. I figured that I would take some classes to learn about computers and how they worked as a starting point. The benefits were two fold. I could learn about the partner that was going to allow me to create these great cartoons. In the interim this would help me to get a job making the money I needed for those expensive classes in Computer animation (I was so naive). At some point during my education in the realm of computers I secured an "evaluation copy" of some graphics software. I was so excited after about five to ten hours of creating light sources and numerous geometric figures, adjusting splines, mapping textures and probably a bout eight hours of rendering... I realized that "this is a bit more difficult than I was expecting". As it turned out I had been enjoying the C++ classes that I was taking more than creating those initial animations... My means to an end had suddenly become my new end. The next few years I spent doing tech support, quality assurance, and data modeling desperately wanting to be an application programmer. Finally, I landed a full time position that not only allowed me to develop systems but work with various networking technologies and do server administration. I look back at where I started and where I wanted to go and definitely feel I made the right choice.I firmly believe that you are better off allowing yourself to drift a bit, the currents of life will take you where you need to go

So I jump ship in Hong Kong and make my way over to Tibet, and I get on as a looper at a course over in the Himalayas. A looper, you know, a caddy, a looper, a jock. So, I tell them I'm a pro jock, and who do you think they give me? The Dalai Lama, himself. Twelfth son of the Lama. The flowing robes, the grace, bald... striking. So, I'm on the first tee with him. I give him the driver. He hauls off and whacks one - big hitter, the Lama - long, into a ten-thousand foot crevasse, right at the base of this glacier. Do you know what the Lama says? Gunga galunga... gunga, gunga-galunga. So we finish the eighteenth and he's gonna stiff me. And I say, "Hey, Lama, hey, how about a little something, you know, for the effort, you know." And he says, "Oh, uh, there won't be any money, but when you die, on your deathbed, you will receive total consciousness." So I got that goin' for me, which is nice. - Caddy Shack
