Horoscopes For Today: 7/26/2006
Tentative plans for travel, social events or family gatherings are starting to come together right now, so use your great communication skills to get everyone on the same page. Emails, phone calls and good old-fashioned face-to-face conversations need to happen soon if things are going to go according to plan. There's a narrow window of opportunity right now -- people's calendars are going to be crowded soon, so act today to prevent scheduling conflicts.
I've been saying for days now that I do not want to have anything to do with any social events. My horoscope keeps saying I do. At this point, I want proof, certified, notorized, that I am in fact an Aries. I wonder how many Aries are INFP. Probably not too many.
Let's review an INFP:
Portrait of an INFP - Introverted iNtuitive Feeling Perceiving(Introverted
Feeling with Extraverted Intuition)
The Idealist
As an INFP, your primary mode of living is focused internally, where
you deal with things according to how you feel about them, or how they fit into
your personal value system. Your secondary mode is external, where you
take things in primarily via your intuition.
INFPs, more than other iNtuitive Feeling types, are focused on making
the world a better place for people. Their primary goal is to find out their
meaning in life. What is their purpose? How can they best serve humanity in
their lives? They are idealists and perfectionists, who drive themselves hard in
their quest for achieving the goals they have identified for themselves
INFPs are highly intuitive about people. They rely heavily on their
intuitions to guide them, and use their discoveries to constantly search
for value in life. They are on a continuous mission to find the truth
and meaning underlying things. Every encounter and every piece of
knowledge gained gets sifted through the INFP's value system, and is
evaluated to see if it has any potential to help the INFP define or
refine their own path in life. The goal at the end of the path is always
the same - the INFP is driven to help people and make the world a better
place.
Generally thoughtful and considerate, INFPs are good listeners and put
people at ease. Although they may be reserved in expressing emotion, they have a
very deep well of caring and are genuinely interested in understanding people.
This sincerity is sensed by others, making the INFP a valued friend and
confidante. An INFP can be quite warm with people he or she knows well.
INFPs do not like conflict, and go to great lengths to avoid it. If
they must face it, they will always approach it from the perspective of their
feelings. In conflict situations, INFPs place little importance on who is right
and who is wrong. They focus on the way that the conflict makes them feel, and
indeed don't really care whether or not they're right. They don't want
to feel badly. This trait sometimes makes them appear irrational and
illogical in conflict situations. On the other hand, INFPs make very
good mediators, and are typically good at solving other people's
conflicts, because they intuitively understand people's perspectives and
feelings, and genuinely want to help them.
INFPs are flexible and laid-back, until one of their values is
violated. In the face of their value system being threatened, INFPs can
become aggressive defenders, fighting passionately for their cause. When an
INFP has adopted a project or job which they're interested in, it usually
becomes a "cause" for them. Although they are not detail-oriented
individuals, they will cover every possible detail with determination and
vigor when working for their "cause".
When it comes to the mundane etails of life maintenance, INFPs are
typically completely unaware of such things. They might go for long periods
without noticing a stain on the carpet, but carefully and meticulously brush a
speck of dust off of their project booklet.
INFPs do not like to deal with hard facts and logic.
Their focus on their feelings and the Human Condition makes it difficult for
them to deal with impersonal judgment. They don't understand or believe
in the validity of impersonal judgment, which makes them naturally
rather ineffective at using it. Most INFPs will avoid impersonal
analysis, although some have developed this ability and are able to be
quite logical. Under stress, it's not uncommon for INFPs to mis-use hard
logic in the heat of anger, throwing out fact after (often inaccurate)
fact in an emotional outburst.
INFPs have very high standards and are perfectionists.
Consequently, they are usually hard on themselves, and don't give themselves
enough credit. INFPs may have problems working on a project in a group,
because their standards are likely to be higher than other members' of the
group. In group situations, they may have a "control" problem. The INFP
needs to work on balancing their high ideals with the requirements of every
day living. Without resolving this conflict, they will never be happy with
themselves, and they may become confused and paralyzed about what to do with
their lives.
INFPs are usually talented writers. They may be awkard and
uncomfortable with expressing themselves verbally, but have a wonderful
ability to define and express what they're feeling on paper. INFPs also
appear frequently in social service professions, such as counselling or
teaching. They are at their best in situations where they're working towards
the public good, and in which they don't need to use hard logic.
INFPs who function in their well-developed sides can accomplish great
and wonderful things, which they will rarely give themselves credit for.
Some of the great, humanistic catalysts in the world have been INFPs.

Now...I've been tested a million times and no matter what I do I always test INFP. I may not like it, but that's what I am. I'm the pretty princess who wants to save the world and please don't hurt my feelings. I may fake something else most of the time, but this is what I have always tested to be.
With that said here's an Aries:
Aries Personality Profile
The Aries person seeks adventure and has
unusually high energy level. Pioneering, Aries will be the first to take a risk.
There were no doubt, a lot of Aries day traders when that first became popular
for example.
Aries is also a very dynamic person and can easily draw attention to
themselves when they enter a room. Make no mistake, an Aries person will be on
of the first to risk their life to save yours, and also the first to get really
mad at you for putting yourself at risk in the first place!
Money and fame many times find this zodiac sign, and lots of famous people
share your sun sign. Don't be surprised if the Aries in your life has big dreams
and plans for a bright future. Make sure you check out the list of famous Aries
people on the left, it is not a complete list either, but it is rather large.
Similar? I think not.
Anyway, on to other things. My internet at home works. Yay. Just in time for a class last night that was so stupid I 'accidentally' got disconnected. Some guy was in the 'room' lecturing about how to stay safe meeting people online. He was another student, mind you. Even the teacher was annoyed. I had never considered school a dating service before but apparently he does.
Aislin did not have a good day yesterday. Her med dosage was doubled (1/2 tab to 1 tab now). I got a letter this morning from he school saying "Aislin was extremely unresponsive today. She asked to lie down at 10:15 and could not even get up for lunch. If she cannot participate, she cannot be here." She was fine at home and still had problems sleeping but...
Nice. I have a call into her doctor but her doc is moving to the east coast and this is her last week...hopefully she will call back soon.
A co-worker friend of mine had posted signs all around our area that said something along the lines of respect your co-workers, no cell phones here please. There are many people that park themselves right in front of her cubicle and talk very loudly on their cell phones. Mind you, they don't do it at their own desks, or in their own department's areas. Someone just complained about it and made her take them all down...stating that HR had to approve any and all signs posted in common areas. How lame is that? God this place is a joke.
