I LIke to Argue

Perhaps its not a surprise to anyone that lawyer would like to argue, but I just came to this realization oh ya know yesterday. Ok, so truth be told I don't like it per se, I just think I have it down to an art. I know what words will jab the most pain into someone's gut, I use words that are so big, but so on-point, and I've perfected the tone... somewhere between flippant, condescending, and polite. Did this takes years to perfect, no apparently I have been a championship arguer since I could talk. Negotiating snacks, naptime, toys.... yes I was a born lawyer.

Now, I'm not looking to win said arguments, I revel in the fact of walking away from an argument having put my best self forward; I was eloquent, but poignant. This does not mean I don't sometimes have a pang of guilt for the tongue lashing, or overzealous advocacy of some perhaps silly point, but I do enjoy knowing my side came across with ease.

So now I apologize to those that have witnessed said artful arguing. Mom, yeah I know I was a tough lil cookie as a kid, even downright obstinate, V - yes I know as I got older I got more stubborn and probably bratty, Brother - yikes, sorry!, Hubs - you poor soul, forgive me now for the past and what I am sure to be future arguments... Love you all. ~The Illegal Blonde
