I really have a big mouth...

But you already knew that. But why did I come to this conclusion, now? Well... Today, in Psych class, our teacher was talking about relationships and how we make assessments. To illustrate, she told us about how when her daughter had brought her boyfriend home to meet them for the first time, her daughter thought it would be a good idea for him to cook breakfast for the whole family - w/o help. Her reason? She wanted to see how well he handled pressure.

Personally, I don't think she showed much respect for him, or consideration for his feelings. What kind of a relationship is it where you are testing your mate to see if they meet your standards? Not one where both are on equal footing, and have mutual respect.

So with all these thoughts running through my little head, I blurted out, "Wow, she sounds really domineering!"

Of course, my teacher did not share my sentiments, nor did she appreciate them. Well, duh. Me and my big mouth. Sure, it was probably true, but its also safe to assume that its not the smartest thing to say to her. lol, there goes my A... Along with my induction into the hall of shame. If I'm not taking nose dives into firepits, I'm getting myself in trouble with my mouth (or my typing). :P So... I'll blame it on the fact that I have a big mouth and can't help it. Its a social disease... lol

However... On the other hand, having a big mouth means being able to handle Thanksgiving dinner quite well. And, unlike some of my friends, my mother doesn't make horrid green jello molds or stuffing with nuts in it (bless her soul). So I count myself fortunate. Very. Although, for some reason, my mom used to make mincemeat pies, a horrid concoction of... I don't know what it is, but it tastes awful. Trust me, its the mincemeat, it doesn't matter who bakes it or what recipe is used. :P Anyway, she doesn't make 'em anymore, for that I'm truly grateful. She does make awesome Thanksgiving dinners, and good desserts, too. I just hope she passed on that knowledge to me good enough, as I'm making Thanksgiving Dinner with my sister this year. To make your mouth water sufficiently, I'll tell you the menu: Scalloped corn, stuffing, broccoli bake, green bean casserole, cranberries, turkey (of course), sweet potatoes, and potatoes with herbs. And of course, for dessert, we'll have tapioca pudding, pumpkin and pecan pie and fattening chocolaty bars that disappear quickly. And I'm getting tired so I think I'm going to bed. I can no longer think. And be nice about that last comment... :P
