Jeopardy

Jeopardy is a bitch. It seems like it sneaks up on you like that 5 pounds you slap on around the holidays. You knew the consequences of your actions, but you still ate your second helping and yet another piece of Christmas fudge. Suddenly you turn around and realize how easily your ass expanded into that size 8 you worked all summer to throw away.

It's like that at your job. You can be rolling along pleasing the man then one day, one report is late and BAM! -you're in jeopardy.

The worst one is in a relationship. You find someone who you adore, you want him to feel like a king because he makes you laugh, feel safe, and pleases you in every way. When you really love someone he takes you so high every moment you are with him and every second you're not. Then one day you just snap for no real reason and you feel like shit because you're just downright mean. Maybe it's fear. Maybe it's sabatauge. Or even possibly preemptive measures coming from intuition of the relationship's demise. Or something human like 'taking it out on the one you love the most'. Whatever it is, you're at your worst and that loving man has to see the ugly side of you. You feel like you've put yourself into jeopardy and there's nothing that can fix it but time. If you're lucky, you've got a good man who knows how to love you when you're right AND when you're wrong. But if you're like me you avoid this aweful thing that is jeopardy by avoiding love. Kinda dumb to cut off your nose to spite your face, but at least I admit I'm a chicken sh*t.

Ohhhh you hit on it big time! Yah, we all make mistakes here and there -- and then sometimes the meanie girl comes out with the one two punch. I feel ya. Just remember though, the best part of it is when y'all make up. So go make up and throw a little um um um into it, ya know? It'll be aiight.

When you're working hard only just to stay out of jeopardy, the human glitch snaps in... think it's called error. Lol. Here's to a new year with much much less of that!
