The Things I Say...

Everyone has a safety in their mind that prevents them from saying the wrong things at the wrong time. Every so often, mine switches off and my mouth gets me in trouble.

Like the other day, I was talking to one of my bosses at the end of the day about my plans for the weekend. A co-worker and I were planning on going out, and my boss was living vicariously though us. When he gave us a warning about one place we were going to visit, and how I could end up getting hit on by other men, I said too much information.

What can I say? I sometimes speak just to hear me say stupid things.

It's strange to know the things we say can be easily misinterepted.

A snide comment to yourself, can be repeated by others and set off a major family drama.

A smartass retort can be turned against you one day.

A tongue-tied uttering about your feelings can make you feel like your drowning in a sea of "what the hell am I saying?"

Sometime I wonder if I should ever bother speaking again. But then what fun would that be?
