I have been meaning to respond to Bev's post published late July and just haven't gotten around to it just yet ... well, till now. The tag post thing has pretty much done the rounds so I'm not going to try re-ignite the flow. Instead, I'll just let you in on a couple details about me that you may not know:

• I am just a little obsessive compulsive about arbitrary things like keeping my hands clean and not eating off other people's plates (yuck - I am getting a little better about this one though, I'll take french fries off my wife's plate);


• I tend to undervalue my work and charge too little in favour of helping people out - the downside of this is that I am probably being valued about as highly as I value my work;


• I am a (lapsed) Reiki Master;


• I have a phobia about needles and, coupled with a really vivid imagination, I don't handle hospitals very well;


• As much as I enjoy new things, I am pretty averse to change;


• One of the few ways to really tick me off is to question my integrity, especially by my clients or colleagues - it doesn't take me long to part ways with the person concerned;


• I don't like to take orders from someone for too long, I much prefer to be my own boss or have control over my own processes; and


• I can be pretty cranky, especially when people stubbornly refuse to acknowledge that I am right (sometimes), when I am hungry/tired (often) and when I don't get time to myself once in a while.

Otherwise I am generally a pretty amazing person! ;-)
