Resisting the urge

Do you ever get that urge to spill your guts about something going on in your life? Even when you know you shouldn’t?

But your brain is like “Agghhh! Must share!” And your gut is like “No no no, you’ll jinx us.” And then your anxiety center kicks in and goes “Holy shit. This is big time major stuff. Stomach knots would be fun right about now.” And the logic part of your brain says, “You know, people reading this are going to think you’re pregnant.” (I’m not) And your emotional side is just sitting in the corner not sure whether to cry, puke or jump up and down. And your reasonable side is like “just wait a few more days, you’ll be able to say whatever you want then.” And your loyalty side is like “you’re a shit for wanting to do what you’re about to do.” And your other logic side gets attitude and is all, “dude, you know you need to do this, stay focused.” And your addicted side says, “Let’s go get a latte, it will calm us down. How about some chips too?” And then your two year old raids the pantry so that trumps everything else.


Stay tuned…
