"The difficulty of literature is not to write, but to write what you mean; not to affect your reader, but to affect him precisely as you wish." ~ Robert Louis Stevenson

Apology

Sorry, self,
again,
for spending too much,
flossing too little,
speaking before thinking,
staying up too late,
and waiting till the last minute to do things.
Just to name a few irritating habits.
Frankly
I don't see us changing anytime soon
And a trial separation won't really work
So I guess the best solution
Is to learn to live with ourself
And try to be a little more considerate.
