Perhaps I shouldn't go shooting my mouth off
Perhaps I should keep my mouth shut when I'm on the rag and have had a very stressful week at work and someone whom I care about asks me, "So, I'm thinking about...(insert big life change here)...what do you think?"
Perhaps I shouldn't actually tell them, in words of one syllable, what I think about them and all their faults. Perhaps I should allow myself to first leave the grasp of insanity and THEN answer, saying, "I want you to know how much I care about you, both as person and one of the greatest friends I have ever known, and whatever decision you make, I'll support you, because you've been one of the most influencing people on my personal history that I have ever known, and I owe you a debt I probably can't repay. Oh, and you might want to change (this slightly annoying characteristic) about you."
This would have been infinitely more appropriate than spitting fire. :(
