Ripley's

I realize this is hard to believe:

But just because I'm not talking about something, doesn't mean I'm bottling it up inside.

It's astounding, but I am actually enough of an adult that I can simply let go of things that aren't important.

I was made that you didn't do the dishes.

You did the dishes.

I wasn't mad anymore.

See how that works?

If I mad about a problem, but then the problem is fixed, shouldn't that nullify the anger?

I realize it doesn't with most people. But would have thought that after seeing me do so many loads of "angry dishes" you would have recognized that it doesn't take much for me to be over things.

Because they're not important.

And yes, I could bring them up. So you know what they are.

BUT THEY'RE NOT IMPORTANT!

There's no reason to inform you. And I hate creating conflict where there's nothing to gain. It's pointless and I hate doing things that have no point. It's along the same lines of having me retrace my steps.

It's just....awful.


Plus, I always seem to get stuck with people who, after I've gotten mad at them, get mad at me.

It makes things feel very unjustified. And you know how personal I take it when someone's mad at me. I always think it's my fault and not theirs.

So I try to avoid it. But you'll notice, if I think it's important enough, I will tell you.


It's the big secret.

I always tell people that if something's bothering me, I'll tell them.

But very little bothers me. And most of it isn't worth the words I'd use to talk about it.

So I don't even bring it up.

But on that same note, if I am bringing something up, pay attention. Because it'll obviously be important.
