So I am single for the first time in 8 1/2 years and before that I was young and just stumbled into relationships with zero premeditation, so I have in effect, no dating skills whatsoever. This sounds like a complaint.... but it is NOT a complaint at all. I am so brilliantly inept, that it is beyond amusing. I am hilarious. I am slightly afraid that I find my behavior so entertaining I might never correct it and enter into a successful relationship, but that is a risk, for now, that I am going to have to take. For one thing, my stories make me laugh and there is nothing I like more than laughing. Also they make my friends laugh. And I've decided that I am actually doing the world and all those I love a service by openly embracing my impulsive, sometimes odd choices in behavior that may or may not leave me open to ridicule....I have opened the door for every girl who ever does the same thing to hold her head high and laugh at herself without the slightest bit of embarrassment. Altruistic, right? Not self-indulgent, but selfless. I KNOW!
So for every girl who knows what she is supposed to do and how she is supposed to behave, but feels absolutely compelled to do the exact opposite, knowing full well, the outcome will not be good at all...welcome to my world, it is a magical place. Magical in many senses, that illusion and delusion are embraced as reality and that extraordinary things are expected to happen at all times. All this without the use of illicit drugs. Just a hefty dose of imagination coupled with a relentlessly optimistic outlook and a delightful sense of mischief. Can you couple with two things or does it have to be one? hmmmm...
I love it! Makes me want to turn the page and keep reading :)
ReplyDeleteYou are hilarious!!! I love it & am SOOO looking forward to how you put your grand and not so grand adventures into writing! You are so right about yourself & so many others! You are hilariously insightful ~ ever so entertaining ;)
ReplyDeleteI like this approach too because we can all take in the funny Laura stories with no babies screaming in the background:) and we can perhaps be inspired like you said to live for (can it be true?)... our own amusement? I like this philosophy, so for now I am intrigued... looking forward to future posts.... just let us know!
