Getting to know me

I have already started organizing my personal papers (I'm an archivist, okay? This is what I do). Not that anyone will ever want them, but there are about 5 boxes of things I own that document my life. The rest of my possessions are just stuff. 

I like math. I miss doing math. A few weeks ago, I sat down and did algebra problems for fun. And I enjoyed it.

I am a terrible professional presenter because when all eyes are on me, I feel compelled to entertain. 

I understand how approximately 1% (give or take 0.9999%) of the world thinks. Most people's way of viewing the world is incomprehensible to me. I just don't get their process. 

I do not remember how I found out about 9/11. I think I learned when I went to class and it was cancelled, but I'm not sure. I am skeptical about a lot of my memories, really, and have a weird habit of saying so.*

I really want to see more of the world, but I'm a bit of a chicken and don't want to do it alone. I need adult supervision for something like that.

I am really bad at planning my life. I assumed certain things would happen (which didn't), but I don't have any five-year plan or anything like that. Most of the things I'd want to plan are out of my control, anyway. 

Have I mentioned that I hate surveys and questionnaires and rating things? It's all terribly subjective (what does "I really liked it" mean to you? does it mean the same thing to me?) and they never give you enough context to be able to answer the question accurately.

I'm better at ideas than execution. Which makes me a terrible hostess, but a great partner in planning and helping out.

This is not one of my best posts but it's what you get.

*Context: I was listening to a podcast about memory and a study found that about 60% of people misremember where they were and what they were doing when 9/11 happened. I have never been able to clearly remember to begin with. Am I weird?
