Action and Consequence...

Ok.. so I messed up. I had a fight with my mom over the weekend, and it didn't get resolved like it should have been had I just apologized. So here I am, Monday morning and I'm miserable. And I mean... I have no patience for anyone, I'm gritting my teeth because every little thing is annoying me and I keep taking myself back to the arguement I had with her and how I should have just gotten off my high horse and ended it there. It was something pretty dumb too... totally not worth all the energy that has gone into it so far, and unremarkable enough that in about a week or two, I won't even know what we disagreed about.

Have you ever experienced that? Where you know you were in the wrong, but you don't want to apologize? My argument to myself as I drove to work was that when it comes to disputes with my Mom, there's just no winning. Even if you know the initial "thing" was TOTALLY not your fault, you should not have snapped at your mother because you should have respect for your elders and therefore, YOU should apologize. It's a little twisted and a little frustrating if you ask me, but that's the only way to fix it at this point.

But that's kind of beside the point. In this case, I know I was wrong. So, I'm going to have to humble myself and say sorry. And hopefully, she's going to say, "Don't do that again" and that will be the end of it. And life will go on. sigh. :P

** To prevent this post from sounding too depressing, it has to be known that really and truly, I love my mom to bits. I think we have so many arguments because really she and I are so similar. I get my stubborness from her. Therefore, it naturally follows that we should have the dumb little fights. At least, that's my logic.

OK .. so I caved.

So, after much deliberation, I have joined Twitter. I am now officially a sheep. Do you have an account? I was building it up to something so huge, and splashed all over the media was "twitter this and twitter that"... for what? a basic user interface and an efficient way to virtu-stalk a ton of people all at once. So, I'll try it for a while. We'll see how it goes.

I'm sorry.. reading that paragraph back to myself, it seems a tad attitude-y. I don't mean to sound like I'm cranky, because I'm not. Its FRIDAY!

I think I've been going about this blog all wrong. I gotta take baby steps with this. Maybe a couple of lines every week? That sounds realistic. I've just been creating huge blog posts and because they take so much time, I lack the motivation to keep this up. Thus, my last post was in April, and now it's mid-June. eep!

That's it for now. baby steps.
