I Hate When...

...there are things that I can change...

I have a tendency to say or do too much. Like in the movie Just Wright,
*For those that have not seen the movie just yet, I am about to mention something specific, but it's not a complete spoiler*
Queen Latifah's character spills all the beans about a party she was attending,to her God Sister, who saw an opportunity with the information that she was given, and ran with it! Queen's character went all out and above her norm, but she was outshined. I'm Queen Latifah's character.

Sometimes people get so fed up with the things that I say or do, that they feel it's appropriate to say or do what I won't, without 1)confronting me about being fed up or 2)consulting with me to guarantee that I need a spokesperson. I'd rather you confront me about being fed up than volunteering your services and be my representative. And even if I have given you permission in the past to represent me, doesn't mean it applies to the present or future. It's just like if mom baked cookies. If you want one, you ask. Regardless how many times she makes cookies, you ask. The one time you don't, will be the one time the cookies were for church folks, and you were a greedy cookie whore. Now, she's short some cookies.

I realized today, that I will have to fall back on the amount of information that I let go. I'm cautious already, but only with certain people. I tend to get so excited about the things that are going on in my world, that I forget to snap back into reality and shut the hell up. There's nothing more uncool than someone having a nip slip of your words! It wasn't supposed to happen, but it did!
