Playing Dress-up

I have a confession.

I capitalized on the last two posts. You. He. When no capitalization was called for grammatically.

It offends my perfectionist nature, honestly.

But I watch and learn, and I see those who follow the protocol rigidly. Sir. Y/you. Always deferential, respectful.

It's not that I am not a polite person. I use titles every day. Yes, sir. Yes, ma'am. Thank you, sir. But it never means quite the same thing without the digital (as in fingers) acrobatics of capitalization, nor is it apparent anywhere but in type, here.

Frankly, I'm always a little giggly when I do use a title here. Or in person. When it means something. Yes, Sir, may I have another. It just doesn't seem quite right. A little ridiculous, in fact. Like I've put on my mother's clothing and am clomping around in her shoes.

What, then, do I say? Just yes? Since there are NO no's. Yes. May I taste you? Yes. Please may I have more.

Do I add the Sir? Do I show the proper respect and hope the formality grows on me, becomes second nature? Will you (You?) eventually require it, expect it, penalize me without it?

Everything is so damned hazy.
