Dec. 3rd, 2003 08:37 amDear Dr. Phil
I appear to have been tarred with a passive aggressive brush. 'twas not my intention, and it appears that *everyone* I know has skeletons in their closets they thought I was unearthing. Sheesh. It's like that Simpsons episode with Mr X's website.
"Welcome to the Island."
"I am not a number! I am not-- oh wait, I'm number five."
I've learned, again, that I should shut the hell up. I tend to relearn this over and over, either with a new circle of friends / city, or every five years. What is it that always makes me want to make EVERYONE get along? I should have been a social worker. Or possibly a garbage man (Dilbert reference).

Date: 2003-12-03 02:43 pm (UTC)Cam's message was unfortunately timed, since it coincided with many issues going on with many people. Also, I'm more fond of just asking someone what's going on rather than pussy-footing around an issue (you may have noticed this).
Also, no, you cannot keep secrets, the bug we implanted in your leg keeps you from doing so.
Unfortunately the only way not to have something get out you don't want to get out is not to do it in the first place, however the stumbling blocks of alcohol-inebriation and human stupidity preclude this most of the time.
