When it comes to the mundane details of life maintenance, INFPs are typically completely unaware of such things.
Similar to yesterday morning, I decided to wake up at 5 am this morning and never go back to sleep. I tried, but gave up at 6:30, because that would have just made everything worse. Besides, my stepdad was home, and we decided to go have breakfast this morning. Despite the fact I swore I would never eat again, I had some fine, fluffy buttermilk pancakes this morning. Mmmmm....
Today, at work, we all took the Meyers-Briggs Personality Type Indicator thingy, which I adore. I love taking psych/personality tests, as you well know. I am an INFP. Introverted Intuitive Feeling Perceiver. Also, I'm a big freak, it would seem, because INFP's occur in 1% of the population... I'm a unique little butterfly. A lot of people were shocked to find that I was an introvert. Because I am very extroverted at work, in the traditional sense of the word. But that's not really what it's about. The first time I took the test, I was an ENFP, the 2nd I was an XNFP, but this is the first time I've taken the test with the entire 128 questions. My scores show that I have only a slight preference for I over E. Which is probably why I do extroverted so well. But when it comes right down to it, I need a certain amount of alone time to recharge. And being around too many people for too long a time drains me.
There were two sections in which I scored way to the right, meaning that it was a strong preference, extreme maybe. And that was the Sensing vs. Intuition, and Judging vs. Perceiving. I'm way way N and I'm way way P.
And then we had pizza.
the end.

i am an INFP as well. i've taken it 3 times now and have gotten the same result every time. it's rather accurate. also... your title for today? dead on. i just can't be bothered with most of those minute details. :) that's why it's kinda sucky that my job is a very extroverted, detail-oriented job. but i've been learning. i still don't really like being extroverted and having to pay attention to things... but i'm doing it...
