I handle correction rather well typically. Especially if it's presented to me in a logical and kind way. Even when unkind, I try to re-evaluate myself to make sure I'm not in error. Any attempt at correction deserves to at least be looked at seriously. Sometimes the correction isn't valid at all, and I'll either shrug it off, apologize anyway (I know, this is terrible), or worry about it way too much. I am thankful, though, for good friends who care about me enough to set me straight when I swerve off the road.

Well, yeah - unless you happen to be the guy on the sidewalk just then.

I dislike being thought of as a perfectionist. I dislike it when people somehow come to the false conclusion that I think I'm perfect.

So...when I screw up...I tend to blurt it out that I'm wrong or that I've botched something...just so I can make it clear that I know that I am not perfect.

I is not pirfeckt!!
