About me: It's taken me a long time down a hard road to finally be comfortable in my own skin though I'm still not quite sure I'm 100%. I know my 'hard road' may not seem very tumultuous in the grand scheme of things but I can tell you I feel as if I've lived a few lifetimes in this one already. Live and learn. Right? Well, here's some of what I've learned and am still learning: One thing I've learned about myself is that I'm resilient as fuck. I carry a lot of scars and I look to them to remind myself that in the end it will probably be worth the fight. It has been so far. I used to dream about the future often, make plans, and stamp my feet when they were broken. I still stamp at times but I've learned in the recent past to just let things happen instead of trying to control it all. It's not possible, especially when you're out of control. Besides, what fun would life be without the sweet suprises? I've also learned jealousy is the root of all that is evil. So, I am learning to be less stampy. I'm learning patience. I'm learning how to really listen to others (the adhd makes it difficult at times). I'm trying to learn how to make new friends without losing touch with the old ones. I'm learning to accept compliments and to stop apologizing for EVERYTHING. I'm learning how to let go of ways of thinking and ideals that I was raised with. Not that it's all been wrong, it's just wrong for me now. For the first time in my life I really feel like an independent adult who's free to choose and I'm choosing to follow a different road. I guess I've had that freedom for some time, I just never had the insight or the courage to follow my instincts.
I'd like to learn to procrastinate less, be on time, to follow through, make healthier decisions, truly open myself up to another human being, not come on so strong, then to not hide behind walls, to speak another language more proficiently, speak louder in general, belch less, play guitar better.
I believe in old souls.
I believe everyone we meet brings us one step closer to the people we're really meant to be with.
I believe in listening to the universe. The little ironies. The little signs that things are right or may be wrong.
I believe music is thereputic and that we all need therapy.
I used to believe in wishes. They've just become a bad habit.
I still believe Wal-Mart is evil.
I will one day be self sufficient. I will sing for my bread and butter and it will be the good stuff. I'm not talking wonder bread and spray butter. I will build a gazebo. And a house made of logs. I'm not talking Lincoln Logs either. These are the only dreams that I've carried with me from childhood. The rest have either come true or been long forgotten. Though I suppose you could call these goals as opposed to dreams anymore. It may make them more obtainable. But I will still open myself up to the possibility of some new dreams...
You Are a Mermaid
You are a total daydreamer, and people tend to think you're flakier than you actually are.
While your head is often in the clouds, you'll always come back to earth to help someone in need.
Beyond being a caring person, you are also very intelligent and rational.
You understand the connections of the universe better than almost anyone else.
Dear Staple Head, Both your ring back tones DO play it is just that they annoy me so much I can't tell the difference! By the way have I told you how much you make me laugh and smile!? You are the best protector ever!!! Love You, Larzy

I was so worried that you guys were going to have a terrible time without me last weekend. I'm glad you didn't have tissues (or got loaded and forgot I wasn't there) and had a good time anyway. Speaking of.... My lovely roommate and I haven't gotten drunk and stupid in your new home. This will need to be rectified at some point.
