I had an epiphany last night that somewhere along the line I never fully developed my inner bitch. I’m not talking about the overly aggressive, nasty, biting-for-no-reason-bitch, but the assertive, strong, outspoken get-what-she-wants-bitch.
The one who stops the jerks in their tracks and calls them out on their shit and then moves on to being a nice, creative, happy human being again in one swift movement.
In many ways I let 2009 happen to me. I had a lot of great things happen, but I spent a large amount of time listening to people and not telling them what I really think despite them asking for my advice on the situation. I was afraid of being mean or insensitive. What I failed to realize is I was letting people be insensitive to my time or feelings in the process.
Every once in a while I will go into a crabby sort of rant in front of my friend Greg who always exclaims “GRRRRR!I LOVE this side of you!” I can see why he likes it – it’s sassy, intelligent and right to the point. It matches up better with my personality.
Trust me, I have no desire to be a mean and nasty person and my inner optimist will never let me become rude. However, I am on a mission to not let people be rude to me anymore. If I get called a bitch in the process, it is a sacrifice I am willing to make.
ok – If you are a reader, (really I have readers??? WTH, but I LOVE YOU!!!) I apologize for not writing in such a long time. I needed a break, and decided to redesign this space. Not to mention the fact that I landed my dream, decided to direct a musical and lost my past posts on my (not that old) shitty PC. Yeah insanity…
So here I am somewhat renewed, with lots of cool stuff happening around me. I decided I need an outlet again. Forgive the past few nonsense out of order posts. I was testing out the photo and editing capabilities in WordPress. Cool new stuff is coming very soon. I promise.
And so this is Christmas…time to go eat more cookies.
This picture was taken at the strangest wedding reception I have ever been to. So what makes for an interesting reception? Um, how about a fist fight, almost catching on fire, fake puke, a mentally disabled d.j. and GOATS! Thanks Julie. This will no doubt be the most memorable reception I ever attend. This is a self-portrait with the lovely goat with a sideways face from being kicked as a foal. Yeah, tragic, I know. Poor goat.
