the shells still remind me of the last really great summer I ever had. It was a challenging time, but I rose to the occasion. It would be another 20 years before I would have to slay that dragon again. Ahhh....youth!

fools

The fools sent me the entry. It wasn't my fault that I won the grand prize. Now the question is, how does one maintain an elephant? I am sure my apartment is not going to be large enough to house this beautiful creature. Well, there is always the complex office? Hmmmmm

I have been able to maneuver this world undetected thus far. Though I know some day, the jig will be up, I continue to walk among the living with a smile and a gait that disguises my true self. One day I will have to tell them all, who I am.

It was alarming somewhat. I did it again. Me and my big mouth. When I'm in the moment, I just want everyone to feel loved, better and a part of the family, but after the moment passes, and I've signed on for something that I may regret later, I feel like I did something that I won't be able to absolutely follow through with. Sheesh!

The montage was going to be a tribute to my female family members who had gotten me started on the show from the beginning. Things didn't work out as I had planned. The website was not as easy to manipulate as I had first thought. Then the pictures wouldn't crop the way I wanted. Then I worried about manipulating others images on the internet. The worry never ends.

beer

I love beer. I may love beer a little too much lately. My pants don't feel like they used to, and I cannot look in the mirror without thinking about having that last beer that I shouldn't have had. Crap. I am not good at this today.

ensue

The onslaught will ensue next week on Tuesday! I am not ready to see the results of my 16 weeks of labor. Some will make me proud, while others will make me want to tear my hair out! It is always the same every year. Feelings of guilt, relief, and general gassiness ensue with the close of each new year.

bagel

The bagel was not as good as it looked in the picture. I wonder if I can sue for false advertising? I should look into this cause I spent my last five dollars on that bagel and a shmear! Damn shame. Public Enemy was right--don't believe the hype!

I fabricated parts of my story to make my adventure seem more adventurous than it actually was. In reality, I was just as alone as I am when I am home. Sometimes traveling isn't all that we crack it up to be in our minds. My trips are never as redemptive as I would like them to be, but that does not stop me from trying on the next trip.

It came over me like a plague! I missed my time. How could I have been so stupid. I checked the book several times, but I guess I was over anxious and forgot how to read. I am disappointed. There's always next year I guess. Even though this year was to be "my year". Does this mean I missed my calling? Or am I destined to always be a day late and a dollar short. Story of many life.
