Acknowledgement

My friend, Violet, nominated me for a "Thinking Blogger" award. It has a logo and everything. I feel like I should decline the honor, but I have to think about it a bit more.

Trouble is, I do think a lot. Too much, really. And I always like to tell people what I think.

When I was expressing my displeasure at the lack of service I received in a particular establishment, my young son asked, "Why were you bawling them out?"

"I wasn't bawling them out," I backpedalled, "I was just giving them my feedback."

So that is now our catch-phrase, our "inside joke" trigger, when I get angry - for him to say, "So, are you givin' 'em your feedback?"

I do want to thank Violet that designation, and for her affirmation (once in a while I do give positive feedback). Typically, I had to think about this for a couple of weeks before I could even acknowledge her award. I will tag some other thinking bloggers tomorrow (part of the criteria in receiving the award).

So, I guess the question is, with all my thinking, am I drawing the right conclusions?

I'll have to think about that one.
