Call me Cassandra

(I always knew that classical Latin degree would come in handy sometime.) For some reason when I speak, people do not believe what I say. Maybe it's b/c "everybody lies." Everybody but me that is. I said I'm going to South Beach. (Flight and hotel reservations are in hand.) I said I was buying a car. (Got the loan to prove it.) I said I'm going back to school... again. (Found the program and started pricing books.) I provide all of this evidence in order to show that I don't make threats. I see them as I waste of time and oxygen. When I say something, I follow through on it. So people, really, stop being surprised when I tell you something and it happens, or you are going to find yourselves caught in the rain without an umbrella. And you can't say I didn't warn you.
