A blog of no uncertain musings. What goes on in my mind is often a source of wonder to me.

I'm Not Complicated
DAY 17:  If someone wanted to really push your buttons, what would they do to provoke you?

I suppose like many of us, I have a number of buttons that might be pushed at any given time.  But the one that really rankles me is to keep telling me to do something that I already know I have to do.  Worse, to tell me how to do that particular thing as if I'm a child and have no earthly idea how to do anything. 

I (like to) think I know a bit more than most  ... at least for things pertaining to what I have to do and how to do them.  If I don't know how to do something, I'm not afraid to ask for help.  Never have been.  But, keep telling me I have to do that something I already know about, and if you're lucky, I'll just tune you out.  If you not lucky, then ... well, I'm sure you all have an imagination.  *Smirk*

Now if I've finally done that thing, AND I've gotten it wrong, then you can get on my case.  Some.  Only some.  By that time, I'll know I screwed up and won't want to hear about that.  You know what I mean, right?

I'm not complicated.  Just let me do my thing in my own way.

And don't be in front of me driving 15 mph UNDER the speed limit. *Wink*
