Bites you in the Ass

Sooner or later everything you say you will never do will come back to bite you in the ass. I know this from experience. This week something has been nibbling my ass just in case I started to get forgetful about the whole thing.
I said I would never smoke, I did. (Though for a short time and I quit cold turkey). I said I would never live in the US, I did. I said I would never run a red light, I did. I said I would never (again) do a certain act with a man body, I did (and licked it). I said I would never ... well, I am tomorrow. I am also leaving that blank. It's not one of my prouder moments.
Perhaps, if I never again in my life said I will never about anything I will actually be able to keep some good grrl pride and principles. Perhaps not. Then again, perhaps I'd die a dried up old prune who never had any adventures or new experiences in her whole life. On my tombstone someone would write about what a great personality I had. There would be no mention of anything really interesting, nothing that would make someone blink or second look. I'd just fade into sand dust as my tombstone became one more weathered rock on the lot.
Yes, I am making a possible mistake. I may regret it. But, I seem to be doing it anyway. Sometimes the wants overwhelm, and kick the butt out of, the needs. Later, they come back and bite you in the ass.
For every action there is a consequence. But, who doesn't have regrets in life? Why not just run right for them rather than puttering around and trying to avoid something you're going to get stuck with eventually. At least this mistake is on my own terms, at my discretion. I can't see anyone but me being damaged either. There are people who seem to make a career out of this. Then there are people like me who always said they never would ever do anything remotely like this.
Yet, here I am.
Tomorrow morning, at about 10:am, I will be doing something good grrls don't do.
