Sometimes life feels like an endless series of wrong moves. Always saying the wrong thing at the wrong time to the right person. The real zingers, the bons mots, the choice phrases, the sparkling witticisms, always go to someone who never really deserved them anyway.
If someone's not disappointing me then I'm disappointing someone. Usually someone who can't spell "disappoint."
Between biting my tongue & putting my foot in my mouth there must be some kind of answer.
But some people always know just what to say & how to say it; e.g., see song 3 on this list.

oh, swatlet. no one ever says the right thing. when one is successfully, on-the-spot witty, they're just lucky, & everybody knows it.

plus, listeners never pay as much attention to speakers' words as the speakers themselves. give yourself a break.

from a random blog reader, if, in conversations, you're half as witty & mindful & engaging & accessible & smart, you're doing just fine.

although, i'm feeling just like your post today, so thanks.
