As I'm closing tonight I realize something. My parental units helped me do one thing very well. They helped me make a choice.
What was that choice?
Pride. The big difference between me and most of the people I've been working with lately is the fact that long ago I decided to take pride in every thing I do. If I'm going to mop a floor, it's going to be the cleanest floor you've ever seen. If I'm going to cook a steak, it's going to be the best god damn steak you've ever had. If I'm going to take a lover, I will be the best god damn lover she's ever had.
If I'm going to fuck something up, by Gods, am I going to fuck something up. It seems like that's what I'm best at. I can be a real dumbass at times. I'm not perfect, never claimed to be. All I can be is true to myself and do the best I can to treat others as I would want to be treated. I fail at that sometimes, too.
I am sorry.
