I came to the realization today that I am the cause of a lot of horrible misunderstandings. This is due to my tendency to leave things unsaid.
I don't mean that I am too shy or afraid to say something. I'm one of the most tactless people I know. I'm the girl who told her manager today that she probably couldn't work with a different staff because she's a control freak. I'm that one.
On the other hand, I'm also the girl who started an instant message to a coworker to let her know she had an urgent message from another office and forgot to hit "send." For an hour.
I'm also the girl who has about 18 unpublished blog post drafts right now. They were good ones too. One of these days I'll finish them...just as soon as I remember what my point was.
I also have a horrible tendency to hit the "forum" button right after typing up responses to forum posts, thinking I hit "send." I only find out later, after trying to figure out why no one replied to me, that I never posted what I intended to say. Usually by the time this dawns on me, the time for the comment has passed.
I'm the girl who thinks well-wishes at her Facebook friends when I see their wall posts and never thinks for 2 seconds that they can't see my thoughts.
So, if you think I should have responded to something posted, please feel free to insert a proxy response on my behalf.
I'd also like to offer my belated congratulations, condolences, get well wishes, birthday wishes, Christmas tidings and New Year benevolences. I know I owe you.
Now if I can remember to hit "send"....
