I just saw a title in a blog I love: An agonizing library of mental replays. I have one of those! Actually I wouldn't have one that was quite so organized and well maintained if I didn't have children, in fact I'm pretty sure I wouldn't have one at all if I didn't have children. I would have "an unusual library of funny feelings when I see someone who I may have had an odd exchange with".
Oh hi Mrs. Periwinkle (wait why is she looking at me like that).
You told her to "Slow the F down" last week when I was skating in the street.
I did not say F.
Mom you did.
To Mrs. Periwinkle?
I don't think you knew it was her.
Well she must have been going at a good clip then.
And she didn't stop at the stop sign.
See?
(sadly shakes his head)
I'm sure she doesn't remember. And plus don't look at me like that, I probably saved your life.
Ha! Exactly! And my children are just getting to that age where they can add to my library of guilt...
