From what I’ve read from you, this “few words” quality is clearly untrue

You’d be amazed at how much I don’t say … at how often I bite my tongue.

but… are you a “dog person”?

I’m not not a dog person … but I’m not really ‘a dog person’ either.

I’m not really an any kind of animal person as such really … although I do like animals in the large — better than I like most people anyway.

I’m very keen on butterflies though, that I would have to admit — I don’t know if that makes me ‘a butterfly person’ though.
