Rumors

So, besides being the title of one of the best albums of the 70s EVER, it is a word I hate to hear.....

The past 24 hours have been filled with rumors that really made my heart stop. Both of these rumors have been clarified....but it makes me wonder why people start these things....

Do they realize that the people that are the subject of these rumors, usually have no way to defend themselves? Do they realize that these rumors can change the way these people are seen by others? Do people realize when they spread rumors, THEY look stupid?

Having been the subject of rumors, myself (I know, shock, right?)....I must say that I had the eery feeling that everyone I encountered had heard of false rumor about me and were probably thinking of it while sweetly shaking my hand. The feeling I had of how I had to make sure correct information needed to be released to get me out of rumor....ugh...How I wanted to go all psycho on rumor-spreader-person, but somehow, the inner-debutante over took these emotions and stopped me....all though a good face bashing would kind of feel good...anyone have a punching bag I could borrow?

So, if you want to spread rumors...don't sit by me....you want to verify or clarify? I'll be waiting....
