Extroverts are odd creatures to me. You are telling me you get energy and recharged batteries from being around a bunch of people? Yeah. Right. That’s so not me, however I have a lot of people in my life who are these enigmatic extroverts. And they deserve attention this holiday season, too… I guess.
I kid. I actually quite admire extroverts. While I like being around others and socializing to a certain extent, I am not one to boldly introduce myself to a new person (except for that time I hit on my now-husband five-and-a-half years ago…). I don’t want to organize or attend a bunch of social events every night of the week, and I avoid talking on the phone like the plague. I’m just fine to spend most nights with my cup of Relax tea, a book or Bravo, and little old me. (And John and Piper, of course, but they are equally as no-new-friends mode as I am.)
