Hi, so I'm back to blogging. I've been urged by a few friends and family members who came to rely on my silly ramblings, most notably my sister who would sit down every day at 11:30, eat her lunch and read my blog. She kind of served as an editor so to speak, she would call and say "WHERE IS YOUR BLOG ENTRY, I"m BORED" to which I would say I had nothing to say, she would guffaw and hang up.
My goal for this new and improved (read "free") is to write honestly every day for your entertainment and my sanity. Honesty is important when writing but also very difficult. What if I hurt someone's feelings, what if someone reads to closely into what I am saying? What if I reveal too much about myself? What if I piss someone off? To be a writer, I think you have to take that chance, and I inevitabley will piss someone off, of that I'm sure because I'm rather opinionated. But no one wants to read a boring happy blog do they? Like those people that only post happy shit as their friggin' facebook status, I mean really? You're THAT happy all the time? Congratulations.
Another reason is my good good pal Michelle told me that it's quite theraputic. And that is something I really need right now, I felt such dispair this last Monday. It was awful for the first time in a very long time I didn't want to get out of bed......like at all. Lucky for me I had a migraine (call is sick to work), but I took drugs, it went away. I was still feeling such turmoil and couldn't shake it, sad about everything. I watched 7 episodes of Grey's Anatomy and just was staring at them, cried through every single episode. George came home and felt helpless because I didn't even pretend I wasn't crying at a tv show. I struggled out of it, hopped up on Tuesday and came to work, feeling a little bit better. Then Michelle lets me know how theraputic blogging is and it clicked! Ah HA! I'll write! I don't need some stinking zoloft or whatever shit they are pushing now (plus if I gain weight on meds again, I'll lose my shit) So here we go bitches, lets write!
Let me know how I'm doing either by comments or an email.
Oh and what's with the koala bear? He's friggin adorable is what. xoxo

Testing, testing, 1, 2, 3...

It's best not to worry about others' feelings, especially if you are speaking your own truth.
