I try to think them through. Sometimes I can redo it to make it right (crafts, work, etc). If it has something to do with social interaction, though, I usually make the problem worse, as my temper tends to flare. (You are all getting to see the bad side of me this time around).
What I really need to do is learn to keep my mouth shut and let someone else do the talking for me. It would be better if it was Pan, who is much more tactful and sensitive than I am under those circumstances. And if I feel the need to do the talking, I need to learn to wait a day or two before doing so, not that it would help once I get my dander up. Still I should try.

This is such a joyful picture! Lovin' it!
Huh.
I'd never suspect you of having a temper. Your writing strikes me as being thoughtful and level-headed.
Sometimes I write a nasty response back in a word document so I can get all my nastiness out when I am mad. Then I will wait a day or two and revise my response to a more appropriate, tactful answer. This tends to keep me out of trouble.
