No more drama, my friends.
I’ve spent the week like a ping-pong ball. Back and forth and over and under and quite a few complete veers off to the side. Have you ever felt like you just can’t keep up with all of the emotions that life engenders? (I think quite a few of us probably do- which is why we are downing Prozac like stray dogs in a butcher shop). So, how do we do it? How do we navigate all the crap that gets thrown at us? How do we sift through our emotional reactions to unchartered territory and a world where it seems the only rule is to try somehow to grab a slice of happiness?
Here is my rant:
1. I want airport security to activate some common sense. I don’t have a bomb in my canvas sneakers. My freakin’ contact lens solution cost me ten bucks and if you throw it away I have to buy more.
2. Stop honking at me! I know I switched lanes suddenly– I don’t know where I am going!!!
3. Please don’t tell me that we aren’t in a serious relationship when we obviously are. You are messing with my head.
4. Hola! Welcome to America. Please move into the neighborhood, we are happy to have you.
5. Don’t put advertisements in public restrooms. Give me one sanctuary where I don’t have to buy anything.
6. A glass of red wine isn’t going to kill me. Neither is one cigarette.
7. Let’s all take a deep breathe and get off the treadmill. Our butts are going to get bigger with time and we all know that those actresses are airbrushed. Let’s juuust accept our bodies and move on.
8. Uh huh. You believe in God. Uh huh. I don’t. Get over it.
9. If you stop charging me 25% interest you will get your money faster.
10. Don’t give me that look. Purple rhinestones are perfectly appropriate on a Sunday afternoon.
Wheew. That helped. Thanks for listening.
