I am analytical because I would rather understand a complex mathematical equation than put together my daughter's bunk bed, and I would rather analyze Freud than try to fix a ventilation pipe in the dryer loose. I am practical because, despite my family and friends' amazement at my lack of common sense, they also sometimes recognize my excellent "practical haggling" skills. I may not be able to put together a bunk bed, but my husband paid almost half the price for the same bunk bed that I couldn't put together, and he got a $200 discount on a washer and a 'dryer we bought last summer, all because of my haggling
