Unabashed

Disclaimer:
I’m what the old folks around here call “easy to get excited.” I have a hot temper, too, that fizzles about as quickly as it flairs up. I can’t hold onto a grudge no matter what. I never have been able to. No matter how pissed I might have been, give me a day or two and I’ll shrug it off and stop worrying about whatever it was that had me ill. But as a result of this hot-headed nature, I also tend to get excited about things. I’m always hoping to discover the next best thing, and I’m always positive it’s right ahead, no matter what it is I’m looking for or at. So I tend to get excited sometimes about things that I shouldn’t have gotten excited about. The best time for me to write a review of a book or movie is a year after I read or watched it. A lot of times I’ll convince myself that I loved something when, in fact, it was only like. So if I tell you I went to a movie and have moved it straight to my number one all time best movie slot, just remember that I’ll stew on it a few days and my opinion will likely cool significantly.
