Knocked

Sunday, 2009 October 25 9:16 PM MDT — Arvada, Colorado UNITED STATES

When my brother is in a bad situation interpersonally, he tries to make it better. My mother calls him a schmoozer… and she means that as a compliment. Me? When I'm in a bad situation, I try to make things worse. I don't know why. Maybe I just get bored with being nice. Maybe I just respond in kind: when people push, I push back harder.

What I really want to have happen is to get knocked to the floor and just stay down. When someone says something that they shouldn't have said, I want to know how to just keep my mouth shut and say nothing. When someone thinks ill of me, I want to think nothing of it.

Quote to ponder: “A person who is nice to you, but rude to the waiter, is not a nice person.” — Dave Barry
