Leaving my husband, grasping mortality, raising my children, salvaging the semblance of a career, and wondering, "What else you got?"
Tuesday, December 22, 2009
I realized I was wearing my 12 year old's jeans this morning. (Thanks to the makers of Lycra, no doubt. Bless you!). The message was bittersweet. Wow...I'm wearing the size jeans I wore when I was 'a kid' and can still pull it off. But, holy shit, nothing worse than checking out an attractively built woman from behind only to have the bejesus scared out of you when she turns her head and you find out she's OLD. Have I become that scary woman waiting in line at the convenience store?
Alone & Surrounded: Encompassed seemed a classier, less used word, but surrounded best described the oppositional push that truly exists.
I seek the inane (or insane) as my buoy. So shall they sometimes guide (sidetrack?) my prose, thus explained first and foremost.
Here is my journalized journey to the center of the earth. Destination: Satiation.
So, let's begin, shall we, and join the ranks of how many millions of others whose words hit the page and go unread and unappreciated.
What's one more blog?
