Perfectly Normal

To some people I appear to  be perfectly normal.  My interpersonal skills have been well honed over the years out of necessity.  I was a shy person, and apparently I still am only merely in the closet.  A closet shy person you ask with one eyebrow raised...Well some of us over compensate for we perceive to be our shortcomings.  And yes I over compensate even now.  I seem to the outside world and untrained eye to be an absolute party creature but in reality I would rather be the ultimate wall flower.  I have tried blending into the wall paper but unfortunately I never seem to have an outfit that matches. 

I have performed as a dancer, martial arts instructor, I even, and I dread it, have taught sex ed.  Yes to teenagers with all those questions.  Some how I survived it and so did the kids.  I find that the cold hard truth is the best way to go and fear!  Scared myself and didn't want to engage in sex myself for awhile. Ridiculous I know but true.

If there is a hard way to do something I will find it and you can't stop me.  NO  Siree I am so stubborn and rebellious that I rebel against myself for crying out loud.  How is that for normal?  Well I suppose the husband is waiting ever patiently for me to wrap up my self indulgence, pack up and go home with him, I suppose I will do that but in the meantime Magenta and Indigo Sunsets to you!

Hmm I can't remember exactly when things started to change but boy they have. My energy levels have drastically changed.  I am not quite a couch potato or a sea cucumber but somewhere in between the two.  My thyroid gave out when I was fifty one and that put the weight on although my friends have been kindly lying to me.  I take my pills and I think I take a pill for just about everything I am surprised that I can keep my day time pills straight from the night time pills and let us not go into the mid-day pills.  Some people accept these changes with dignity and I would have liked to be one of them but as it turns out I am pig-headed and just about as stubborn as my significant other Rick.
Shall I just say I had hoped to keep my twenty two year old body forever.  Ha!  I guess at this point all I can do is just keep working on the body building and hope for the  best.  Don't forget your protien...I am writing children's books after having a mental breakthrough that brought to light that I wasn't made for a regular job like everyone else or most everyone anyway.   I am not really complaining as much as it may seem it's just that  clearly one has to bounce as Bumbles do I guess when it comes to life and it's many quandrys....Oct 20th, 2013
