We live in a beautiful world....



Okay so the opening to Lost in Yonkers was great. I had a blast. I really did. I still hate all the schmoozing.... always will, I am just not made for schmoozing. If it's not meaningfull ( and I am very open and outstretched in my version of meaningfull) I'm just not into it. But I have to tell you, walking out of the theatre, I heard quite a number of people commenting on the show, (the family in lost in yonkers is kinda crazy, funny and wierd, kinda like most I assumed) and listening to most people walk out, all I heard over and over again was " wow that family makes mine look normal" and I thought about my family.
Yonkers don't even come close to the psychotic existence that is my family. And I am so glad.
Can you even imagine how boring our lives were if we were all perfectly normal. And then I got to thinking about me, because you can't judge others until you have judged yourself, I'm looney, wacky and some people will never even come close to understanding the complexity that is me. I have to have my alarm set to like 8:02, 8:04, 8:07 or 7:47, or 7:46. - 8:00, 8:01 and 7:45 would wreck my entire week let alone day. I always have to use the washroom BEFORE ordering food from a fast food joint, which can be really hard because most establishments won't give you the darn key until you pay them. I LOVE LOVE LOVE the rain. I am a west coaster all the way baby, and I was so Damn sick of the sun this summer you'd swear I had S.A.D in July and August., I was actually thinking about buying a rain stick and jumping up and down getting Irene V to do the chant ( YOU KNOW THE TRIVIAL PURSUIT CHANT!) and now that it's here I am soooooo much happier. Anyways that's me, I'm wierd and I'm proud, and I think all our wierdness and psychotisms, are what makes this world so wonderful. Yes I may be a tad more tapped into my emotions because this baby is wreaking havoc on my harmones ( you should see the pizza face.... don't worry it will pay) so I leave you with two photos, one of me enjoying lifes' little peasures - purdy's and nanaimo bars in bed, and a beautiful sunset while crossing the Juan de fuca straight on the ferry. We live in a beautiful world.
And to my A and Mr. C - It will still be a beautiful world, and you will still be loved, and you made the best desicion possible, no matter how hard it was.
