I've got 99 problems but maths ain't one

There's a brilliant performance poet by the name of Harry Baker and one of his poems is 99 problems but maths aint one.

I've always thought that I am quite self aware, that I know my faults, but last week I was surprised when someone said I was arrogant.

I worried about it and asked Husband, 'Am I arrogant?'
He thought for a moment and then said, 'You can be quite dismissive.'
'What do you mean dismissive?'
'You're very quick to dismiss other people's ideas as stupid.'
'Do I?'

I suppose it's good to be made aware of these tendencies - and to try to correct them - even if I can no longer say, 'I've got 99 faults but arrogance ain't one.'


I've always
