Day 8: Worst Habits<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n

\"Reading\"<\/p>\n

I am guilty of some bad habits. Two that come to mind immediately are long stories and the use of pronouns instead of specific people\u2019s names. Let me explain…<\/p>\n

First of all, anyone who knows me well would agree that I tell the longest stories. I want to give my listener all of the details! That\u2019s kind of a problem I guess, since usually they end up in going in every direction instead of getting to the point. My family knows this all too well\u2014they will ask me to give them the \u201cshort version\u201d! I just can\u2019t help it. More recently it\u2019s been the fact that I haven\u2019t seen my parents or sister in a while (at least months), and I have so much to tell them. I would like to think that in more recent years, I\u2019ve been better about getting to the point, but who knows?<\/p>\n

In the same vein, I have a terrible habit of telling stories only using pronouns. For example, I will say that my mom is going to the store and then she ran into Katie. She said that she didn\u2019t expect to see her.<\/p>\n

\u2026Wait, what? This is the issue. No one knows what I\u2019m talking about and that\u2019s the issue. I feel like these two issues go hand in hand\u2014it seems as though my storytelling skills could use some work. Funny, since here I am writing a blog. I\u2019d like to this that these habits are really only present in my personal life with the people who know me well despite these flaws.<\/p>\n
