Define baggage.

I'm accomplishment-oriented as well. I don't know that I'd call that baggage, it's just what I am. There's certain things I'd like to do before I die that take precedence over what I consider more trivial things. This is not quite a bucket list in the traditional sense. Going skydiving is not what I'd consider an accomplishment (although I do think sky diving would be cool). My accomplishments are my total contributions to humanity in terms of the advancement of knowledge and/or society.

I keep a couple categorically organized idea logs (which kinda makes me an ideologue, heh) of things I want to accomplish. I probably won't get through all my ideas since it's something like eighty pages of ideas at this point since starting about a half a year ago when I found I couldn't hold it all in my head anymore (I have a pretty bad memory too...). It does help to clear my mind to write that sort of stuff down however.

I can be detached as well. I'm also pretty introverted and can easily get overwhelmed at a big party.
