I get it gang ... I'm perfectly negative and negatively perfect and you never know what you're gonna get. My dear Mother has dealt with this for the last decade and only in the last six months has she begun to really get pretty good at it and catch me before the flip and say, "We don't need to talk about this right now...". Very few people are able to weather the storm with me.. and I make it sound .. like .. REALLY bad and it's not, but I do have a quick temper - it seldom blows, but when it does ... "Katy bar the door!"
I've always been a "non-violent" person, so I generally try to just remove myself from the situation or mentally zone out... sometimes that's not possible because my gut is moving more quickly than my reflexes, thus sending my tongue into an absolute frenzy ... sometimes via the keyboard - sometimes right in front of some one's face.
I don't often get up scuttled about the opinions of others... I like to talk with people and learn why they think the way they do. Over the years, I've changed views on a few occasions after actually learning about something rather than assuming I knew enough. The thing that usually sets me off is when people give feedback or advice on my life without being invited to do so...
I DO LOVE to get feedback on my blogs and don't get nearly as much as I would like... I'm the youngest child and the only girl... that sounds like a real treat - and it was until I got into the world and found that the earth actually didn't rotate around me. That's a rough lesson to learn...
It doesn't matter if you just say that you enjoy reading it every now and then when you're spending a day in your jammies recharging or if you read religiously immediately after I post, it just makes me happy that someone read along and got a chuckle or thought about something in a different way or .. yes .. even if they don't agree and only further confirmed their opinion for themselves, that makes me happy too.
Therefore I was very happy last night when I met a friend for drinks and a walking tour of Metropolis and he told me how much he enjoyed my writing. I was even more happy when he pointed out that sometimes he has to scrap the page because it loads halfway and hangs up.
This is definitely something I would want to know :) So anytime there's something happening on the page that's "jacking with you or your machine" - please don't hate to drop me a note or a text or even post on Facebook - because I'll want to fix it pronto.
This brings me to my next announcement... I'm about to start stripping down the page. The blog content of course will stay. I'm possibly going to merge some things that I've been thinking about merging and do some other groovy stuff that you're absolutely going to be delighted with .. so wake your grandma and tell all your friends and be sure to bookmark, subscribe, follow on facebook or whatnot.
I'm burying myself in my noggin this afternoon and evening to ponder some things, possibly write some things and do some background work on stripping the page and getting back to a "blankish" palette.
Have a Grand and Groovy Evening...
Be Kind to One Another...
and Don't Text and Drive!
