Sometimes words escape from my mouth that were best left in my mind.
And sometimes, it’s my air, my attitude…

I was trying to be polite.
I have been trying to be polite.
But LIFE’s got me in a weird place at the moment…I’m often unsure of my role, and feel out of place…like I’ve misstepped and just caught myself from falling out on the floor.

For good measure, I texted.

I’ll try.
But you said, a little goes a long way…
…so, will you cover for me when all I’ve got is a bit?
