howdy darlins
i thought I'd take a little break, from war, terror, human rights, speaking out for the under-dog and bitching about assholes
to talk about my life
hang on
that is my life
oh hmm
well i guess there are a few things besides all that
first off
its official
yes it tis
i will be taking a share of a lil itty bitty place with a fabulous view
in Provincetown this summer
yeee haaa
yep
all i have to do is cater another 5 weddings
which means cook for about 1,000 people
and i get to sit my Jewish American Tuchas on the beach
for most of August
aaaahh something to look forward to
yes yes yes
ill tell you dears
i know i do spend a little too much time remembering
my rough early adult-hood
and feeling sorry for my little stupid troubles
but lately
ive been trying to remember
every day
thanks to my good pal
Melanie
HI MEL
how grateful i should be
every friggen day
so friggen thankful
that im alive
healthy
free
in control of my own life
not in bondage (well the bad kind anyway...)
not ruled by a fundamentalist regime that makes me cover up my head and face
whether I want to or not and kills or tortures me if i don't
not handicapped
not homeless
not poverty stricken
not married to donald rumsfeld (honey could you look at that face in bed?)
so yes
i say it
i mean it
i feel
it
im thankful
im grateful
there but for the grace of god
go i
i say that too
everytime a homeless person asks me for change
thank you
for letting me be whole and free
and strong
and i do promise
i promise
to remember never to not look down on others
(except for the olsen twins...im sorry i got to on principle)
but to know
that they are only myself
with a little less luck
in this world
this time around
hmmm
shit
i did it
the underdog
human rights
oppression
okay what the fuck
its part of my life
ok
so im talking about my life
so sue me
