Me. . .A Work in Progress
I am now, and forever shall be, a work in progress. I don’t plan on ever perfecting myself, because that would be impossible, but I just want to be “better”. By “better” I mean–I want to feel good about being me on a more consistent basis, I want to cry less about things that aren’t worth crying over and reserve the tears for when they are truly needed, I want to have more patience with my son, I want to figure out how to be emotionally healthy within a healthy relationship. . . .and so many more things. I can’t promise this blog will be consistent because I am a very busy person. I can’t promise this blog will be informative or helpful. I can’t promise this blog will be humorous or insightful. The only thing I can guarantee is that this blog will be honest. I am a truth-teller, and a truth-teller I shall always be! I tend to “call-them-as-I-see-them”, and sometimes I offend or anger. Truth be told, I’m sure I piss people off a lot! (Another thing–I do cuss, so if you are sensitive you might want to find something else to read!) I have finally reached a point in my life where most of the time I really don’t give a rat’s ass what people think about me. I think I am a pretty neat person! I try my hardest to be a good mom, daughter, friend, and girlfriend, and some days I actually succeed at all. Other days I fail miserably. But I will share all of it with you. And like Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory, you never know what’s just around the corner!

In honor of my 3 blog years, I’m re-posting my very first blog post in the history of ever. I’m also deleting numerous posts, because truly, I have a bad habit of reading over things written in the past and then carting around bad feelings from reading them. I truly want to be “better”, just like I wrote three years ago. I do feel I’m “better”, but a lot of things I’ve written on here are pieces of baggage I don’t need to drag around anymore.
I’m also moving my poetry and prose to my new fiction blog http://thefatbottombard.wordpress.com/.
And as always, thanks for your support. lol Bartles and Jaymes. You remember that shit?
Actually, this is a very nice and thought provoking post. As for me, I am a bum. Well dressed, but a bum nevertheless. And I don’t want to change.
If you know who you are, and you’re good with it, I think that’s awesome! 🙂
And thanks for saying it’s thought provoking, as I never really looked at it that way.
It would make a person tend to think about themselves a bit more seriously.
Wow, this was your first post? What a great start to your blog. I love the honesty and that you’re a truth teller. Well said. Good luck on your new blog. Love the name! I don’t think I would have the courage to re-post my first!
Thanks Amy! My mother has always said I’m “honest to a fault”. I just don’t know any other way to be. It’s probably made my life more difficult, yet at the same time easier, as I never have to try to remember a fib or lie. I can be whoever I want to be in poetry, or fiction pieces, but usually end up putting bits of myself in there too.
And another blog, WTF am I thinking?? I can barely keep up with one! lol
Thanks so much for reading and commenting!!
