I am soooo far at the opposite end of the scale from you. I'm glad the quiz recognizes that I simply may be more laid back about the whole thing, which I really am. I know that for me, what's important is really a healthy balance; enough work, and plenty of play time. I never have a problem disconnecting (meaning getting away from work, in general, but more specifically, getting away from technology that keeps me tied to work), and in fact, take the last quarter of each year for sabbatical. I haven't always been this way, and I can't point to a specific event that changed things for me. All I know is that, for me, there's very little that can't wait a day or two, and that attitude has saved me a world of stress and angst. :) Thanks for pointing us to the quiz, and for showing us more about you all the time! :) S Goodness..

Yikes! Most of the questions don't apply to me. I work on the weekends and evenings a lot because of job schedule rather than "taking work home." I've been meaing to write you that you are anything but a "wind up toy" unless you're really good at lying. Your writing reveals you to be thoughtful and deep...someone I would value as a friend. I visit your site often to get inspiration. I scored a 97. Yikes!
