thinking out loud
I wonder if there's a medical term for someone who does everything ass backwards? If there is, I have it. LOL I have a hard time expressing myself too. I'll get emails from people and you would think I'd been ordered to do brain surgery. I sit here and get myself all worked up because I can't think of what to say. And I know people take my short replies and sometimes no replies as me not wanting to be bothered with them but that's not the case at all. I love getting emails and I love getting comments but for some reason, my brain goes dead and I just don't know what to say. Sometimes, I'll save an email for weeks waiting for the moment when I'll be able to reply to that person with something besides one or two words. Often, they never get it. If you're reading and you've emailed me before and never got a response or you got a short response, please believe me, it wasn't you or anything you did or said, it's all me and my inability to communicate like an edumacated adult.

Lahoma dear, Please don't put yourself down. There are many of us out here that feel the same way. We all can't be creative writers. You communite just fine. Don't over analyze this. Dawn

Your replies to emails might be short, but they are precise. To the point.
Unlike mine, where I have to write fifteen pages to get my point across. lol!
love ya, and dont worry about your short replies. At least we can understand what you are trying to say!

I've had that problem too, Lahoma. Sometimes, in the case of comments in journals, I read something I can't relate to and really have nothing to say about the entry. I do feel bad about it but sometimes, I think saying nothing is better than leaving a two word "I agree" comment and come off like a smart-aleck.
Lately, my excuse for not commenting more is just being busy and adjusting to this new lifestyle -- it is the truth though!!!
Anyhow, I agree with the others and say, don't be too hard on yourself!
Love,
Sheila
PS I've gotten to know you well over the last year or so and know better than to think your lack of response, means that you don't care.
i have also done this...even with you. I will get an email and have to process it later and at 4am, 2 wks later, i will wrote for an hour to that person. Some J Landers get very pissy and want an instant reply.
love,lisa
aw Lahoma, Im sure no one minds! It is probably more the thought of doing something than the actual doing!! I love your journal anyways! Linda xx

Lahoma;
I am lmao here thinking about you thinking. There is word for it but I don't know what it is. I have been cursed with the gift of gab and I usually journal or comment exactly what I'd say if you were sitting right in front of me. A lot of my personality I hold back off of my journal just to censor it. But I do things cy-goggly, bass-ackwards all the time! All the freaking time! I make a joke out of it and say I MEANT TO DO IT THAT WAY. I make out like I'm TRYING to crack you all up. Dirk has a word for it that I love. He called it 'NELISHIA-NESS' so maybe you from time to time have an attack of Lahoma-ness. Ever thought of that?
Don't worry so much about it. The one's who love you will hang in there with you if you get senile and all you can do is nod, poop, and grunt. JK don't take that wrong just playing.
LOVE YOU GF!
