Inertia

[Cammy]

Oh Mosaic - I love you. You've totally made me feel better! Why don't you and I get together, collect all our dust bunnies and either open a dust dinosaur museum or a dust bunny petting zoo? What do you think? At least we know the 'animals' won't bite, and the worst thing that can happen from a litigious point of view is a lot of sneeze attacks. Haha.

I do feel bad about your introvert/extrovert spouse mix. It can sometimes be good in terms of using the extrovert as an excellent buffer between yourself and other people. The bad part, of course, is that the extrovert likes to go out and DO things, and of course, we like to be home bodies. I don't envy you that particular struggle. Although, at least you know when you are forced to go out, your spouse keeps up that terrific social buffer providing you stick close to him and kind of hide half behind him and off to one side.(You can tell I've practiced this move before).

Oddly enough in my relationship, I tend to be more of the spokesperson, and my husband likes to use me as the buffer. He is so bad that I have to sit between him and other people if we're sitting in a row, with him at the end of course. It's funny how my alters jump to the rescue and do the whole social butterfly thing in order to spare my husband. But, oh my, it IS taxing... like vacuuming and dusting are taxing. SIGH.
