On Having No Manners

 My mom tried. She really did! I know, sort of, how to do The Things. 

I know that I am supposed to bring something when I go to someone's house for dinner - or anything else.

I know how to write thank you cards.

To RSVP in a timely manner.

To thank someone after a lovely evening and make sure they got home safe.

To set a table and indicate with flatware that I'm done at a restaurant. Not to stick my chopsticks upright in the rice.

And yet.

I don't, always. 

And I suppose that to be damning.
