Have you Seen My Inner Monolog? It Is Missing Again.

Have you seen my inner monolog? I have seemed to of lost it? If you find it (you will know it is mine because it is tiny and shriveled), please do return it to me. I seem to lose it more often than I would like. I know when it is lost because I say something that I wish I would have kept to myself…only spoken in my head. For example, earlier this week I was talking to a very kind lady who is coming over to talk about designing a custom bag for her mother. When I answered the phone, she said her name and mentioned we spoke before Christmas about setting up this meeting. I then replied (and this is when I immediately noticed my inner monolog was missing) “Oh yes. I just saw a slip of paper with your name on it in my planner and I tossed it because I couldn’t remember who you were.” YIKES!!!!!! Did I really just say that out loud????!!!!?? And my inner monolog was still missing when she kindly suggested meeting over lunch and I replied “No, my husband does not like strangers in the home when he is at work.” What was I thinking? There could have been so many other way more appropriate ways to get the same points across without suggesting she might be a weirdo. I definably do not think this kind woman is at all strange and I am very happy and excited to have her and her mom over for a visit. UUuugg. So please. If you live in the St. Louis area, please keep your eye out for my inner monolog. You will be rewired with the satisfaction of knowing that you saved other poor St. Louis souls from having to hear my uncensored thoughts.
