You Are a Mai Tai

You aren’t a big drinker, but you’ll drink if the atmosphere is festive.
And when you’re drunk, watch out! You’re easily carried away.That sounds about right – one of the reasons I don’t get drunk very often!
I’ve been catching up on friends’ blogs and just read D’s. I’m
feeling fairly guilty that I never got around to helping him write some
essays and responses to law school applications. Although life
got pretty busy, I really do not have a good excuse for not blocking
out a few hours to sit down and edit his stuff. I’m glad he has
other friends who are lawyers and who made the time. I can be a
selfish shit sometimes, or maybe the better word is thoughtless.
One of the many things on my list of “things to work on to make myself
a better person.”

Aw, you’re not a shit yet. If he doesn’t get in anywhere, then you’ll be shit!
I’m kidding, totally kidding!!
Man, time is like a muscle car that idles really fast and goes out of control often. I’m not at all good at keeping up with stuff.
Don’t stress about it, hon.
This has also been a lesson for me in trying to get/allow people to help. I’m not good at it. I’m used to doing everything myself. I really suck at “reminding” people that they offered to help. I feel like a nag. So I could have bugged you about it and didn’t. Eh. No biggie.
Love you hon, but I have to tag someone. You’re it. Look at my last post for details.
I dunno. As nice as it is to help people, editing well isn’t a quick and easy task. I find it really hard sometimes to force myself to do that, even when I really want someone to succeed with his/her writing.
Huh- I was a mai tai too….
Three cheers for being a selfish shit!
Glad to see you on here, Lovely!
BTW- I added you to my “cool kids” list … shhh!
