Let Me Count the Ways

I had to take a break from blogging and everything else. I was very upset about the my insurance ruling, I don't even know if I blogged about that, anyway, I basically had a "fuck it" attitude. Hadn't been to any meetings, hadn't read any material, I simply have placed all that shit on the back burner.

Soooo, let me catch up with everything that has transpired in my life: I'm happily single, I'm not in a rush to be in a relationship with anyone, still troubled with my addiction, have yet to talk to my mother about things that happened to me when I was growing up......probably never will. I really wish I could pack up and go to parts unknown and start my life over, my son can adapt very easily and so can I......which is a HUGE plus for me. I really need to prove to myself that I can make it on my own. Oh, I've already started thinking about my birthday and jotting down some ideas, I want to celebrate, I want to be around people that I honestly believe care about me and some who don't give a rat's ass (might as well keep it real with myself, lol). I don't trust anyone enough to plan a party or anything else for me because no one knows me well enough and if I want it done to my standards then I must do it myself and I'm so cool with it.

Today, I ran across the sweetest ad and I thought I'd share it:

~~~~You will be more likely to get a response if you attach a picture. I prefer FEMMES, no BBW~~~~





Six reasons I won't respond to you:

1. YoU hAvE eVeR wRiTteN sHiT lIke tHis oN pUrPose

2. you're a guy, you're a guy, you're a guy

3. you're a guy.

4. you're married, you're married, you're married.

5. You write in ALL CAPS

6. You send me a picture and that's all. Trust me you're not going to win me over with looks alone.


As I read through these 50 reasons I smiled, became a little misty-eyed, laughed, was reflective and hopeful. How sweet of the woman who wrote those 5 things and how lucky - perhaps the woman who will experience these 50 things.

I was thinking a few days ago after I hung up from a call, all anyone ever wants in life is to be accepted. Yes, we all could stabd to change some things in our lives & character, but at the end of the day we want for those close to us to look at us and smile because no matter what, they will always love and accept us for our true, fucked up authentic selves. Even I, the ice Queen herself desires to be loved, not for my outward exterior but for who I am on the inside. C'est le vie!

Peace & Light....
