My original plan when I came to write this was to say how perfectionists are a pain in the butt, and dont make any sense. But! ..there's always a but. I realized that perfectionists are also control freaks. Which I am. Terribly.
I always had it in my head that I was not a perfectionist and that people like that and I did not get along. Which is still true, but for different reasons than I thought. I'm not detail oriented, which I thought meant I could never be a perfectionist. But there are certain things that have to be the right way, or I become like an angry mother bear when someone misplaces her child.
I hate looking at things or doing things and focusing on the tiny little details of it rather than the whole finished product. I feel like getting something done is a much bigger accomplishment than how perfect the things are inside.
But on the other hand when I'm cleaning or anything, if its not to my standards...its not right. So I dont know if that makes me anal retentive,a perfectionist, or just weird. Or maybe all three. That'd be cool.
You are so a perfectionist. I am a perfectionist. We both want things to be just so, and since we're always right, that's the way it should be...lol.
ReplyDeleteSeriously though, you're a perfectionist, just more of a big-picture one I guess.
a big picture perfectionist...somehow that doesn't sound like it should exist.
