le mot juste

I'm the same way on just about every point you make. (I still despise phones, even at work.) Since college, though, I've gone from careful prethought to the poor on-the-fly method that you find so annoying. Sometimes a word comes out of my mouth that is so completely wrong that I'm actually too befuddled or amused to be horrified. (Saturday's was the word "garage" instead of "guitar.") Remind me to be practice being careful next time we talk.

not sure if you'll read this reply, but i think oddly garage/guitar would bother me MUCH less than words that are closer in meaning but just the wrong choice...not hitting a great example right now other than implied/inferred.
