Sheer Curiosity (And a Lack of Something More Interesting to Post About)

I was talking with a co-worker yesterday, and we were (non-maliciously) joking around about some of the people at our workplace and our impression of them. Which got me to thinking about what these same damn people probably sit around and say about *ME*. I can only guess, and I'm sure it would not be favorable. But this in turn got me thinking about how little we really are aware of how we come across to the people around us.

So, having piqued my own curiosity, I throw this question out there for you today. I am not fishing for compliments by any means, nor will I be offended if your response is "a stone-cold fucking bitch" (or absolutely no response at all) but:

Those of you who know me, what were your first impressions of me? (And how have your impressions changed now that you know me better?)

[[ I've further decided: In return for your first-impression of me, *YOU* will receive my first impression of *YOU*.

Call it an incentive plan.

Plus, it makes me feel a bit less like I'm fishing for compliments--which I'm not, dammit!]]
