John Y’s Musings from the Middle: Fixing Blunders

Has this ever happened to you?

Sometimes during the day I find myself realizing –after it is apparent to everyone else involved–that I have made a blunder of some sort.

I may try to fix the mistake in mid-air, so to speak.

But rarely can.

Then my mind races for a plausible excuse for why I did the dumb thing I did. After that usually fails, I try to think of a way to blame it on someone or something else.
