More bite, less yap!


Yeah! I think I have found my new motto! You know what they say, the barking dog rarely bites or all bark and no bite, and you know me, that proverb basically sums me up. I think from now on, I shall utilize the element of surprise in my interpersonal relationships.Why waste energy yapping about things when I could just zoom in on the kill? Hhmm....more substance, less talk. I like that.

p.s. I realize it makes me appear 'silence of the lambs'-ish....oh well.
