Not only am I a hardcore INTJ, I am one bad-ass Virgo as well. This means that I am so self-loathing that most of the time I won’t even talk to myself because I don’t think I’m worthy. (Yes, I do see a therapist, thanks for asking.)
The other day I got an e-mail from an old high school friend who, in the course of sending out holiday greetings to everyone, also took the opportunity to inform our little group that their marriage was on the rocks. I replied with sympathies and said that 2007 wouldn’t exactly go down as “My Favorite Year” either (though not for relationship reasons). And I meant that quite sincerely. There’s been some tough sledding in 2007 — near-disasters, unanticipated changes, unwanted changes, and very little clarity as to the road ahead. There haven’t been any life-changing crises like a marriage unravelling, but there’s been a steady diet of varying degrees of suck.
Of course, that’s probably just my over-critical Virgo INTJ interpretation on it.
I came across my 2008 year-in-overview horoscope this morning, and, if it is to be believed at all, it looks like 2008 will feature some payoff for this year’s slogging, but apparently I am not quite out of the weeds just yet. Oh, joy.
