I think Marcus comes home from some small party he has dominated with his wit and falls into a black depression.

I was drawn back here by your shameless introver...cy, only to read this next blog and I AM AN AMBIVERT, and I am thrilled to know there is now a technical term for it. One day, when I meet you as I am certain I will, perhaps in your insightful way, you will recognize in me the signs of true ambivertedness versus the stereotypical Marcus variety. I think in general we are a happy lot, we ambiverts. We like people and people like us, yet we have the quietude of spirit to manage our difficulties without burdening a whole lot of folks, but also witout turning inward entirely making our difficulties so much less managable. We are definitely able to talk but we are also able to listen and to care. I think it is GREAT, being this way, like the best of both worlds! Like...we can appreciate the subtlty of the semi-colon, but we are also big fans of CAPITAL LETTERS and exclamation points!!! Peace and love, Sujatha Hi again, Jincy,

You're all over my blog right now, and if you're ever having a bad day, you should head over because I shamelessly revere your stories. Have a great day!
