Snarky Gratitude

Sun, Dec 14, 2008

So, I’m not perfect, this I know. I can be righteous and demanding, expecting more than most people are willing or able to give. I am annoying because I hold myself to the same standards and for the most part I make good, which can border on martyrdom. I am alternately fastidious and slovenly. I am woefully bad at geography, though a recent obsession the girls acquired that has us daily constructing the United States, has me doing much, much better in this arena. I have a frightfully bad memory, I mean like wave your hand before my face and say, “Weren’t you there, I mean right there with us? How can you not remember?”

All this said, here are a few things I’d like to say in what is probably seasonally inappropriate snarkiness—

I am grateful that I don’t lie.
I am grateful that I am not two-faced.
I am grateful that I know better.
I am so happy that I have the genuine friends that I do.
I am confident that the people that sparked this will get their just desserts.

Peace out.

    I'm sorry that someone sparked this for you but am I snarky for wishing that they do get their just desserts? ;)

    Isn't it nice to know that who you are so closely resembles who you wanted yourself to be?

    *hugs* Sorry that someone had wronged you.

    Worse is when you are what you are and people use that against you. *sigh*

    May Karma be swift.

    Other people are stupid. At least that's what I've noticed.

  7. Heather says:

    I've found it's really difficult to be so right all the time when so many people around me are so frequently just wrong. ;)

  8. Amy says:

    Oh no! Karma is a bitch, I hope what goes around comes around to whomever brought it about.

    Some people are just JERKS. Isn't it nice not to be one of them?

    Ya'll are gems. I am fine. Just got a little caught up in the futile rage of schoolyard-type crap in real life. Home with a sick little one watching Vince Vaughn in a holiday movie. Life could be much, much worse!

    People can suck. You don't.

    Thank you for promoting the value of gratitude, even if it was snarky gratitude.
