High Expectations and Second-Best
I'm kind of a perfectionist. I try to keep that particular quality of mine on the down-low, preferring to project a more laid-back persona. Ah, yeah, I'm a bit behind on my work, I might say, casting the impression of relaxed loose-jointedness, an I'll-get-to-it-when-I-get-to-it attitude. But what I really mean by that is that I hold myself to impossible standards of accomplishment, standards that I would never dream of holding anyone else responsible for fulfilling.
