No I'm not dead...

I just "re-found" my blog. It's kinda been in the back of my mind, but I didn't realize how loooooong it had been since I'd written in it. It's almost laughable everything that's changed and happened since I last wrote, in 2007! I suppose I will get to that eventually. Just wanted to post SOMETHING. We're now on the brink of 2011! It's December 12, 2010, so it's been more than three years since I've posted here. I am almost a different person! ha ha. So much has changed! Even my appearance! I started walking - mostly out of frustration and pent-up anger issues - in early 2008, and since then I've dropped a remarkable 46 pounds. I didn't even notice at first - Since that wasn't the "goal", I just felt better. Then people started noticing. So I figured I'd lost maybe 10 pounds or so. Imagine my surprise when I got on the scale and had lost almost 25 pounds! I have some sort of dimorphic body image, I guess. I didn't even notice much until my clothes started falling off. I've dropped about 4.5 sizes since then. Leave it to Miss Opposite here - I've been overweight most of my life, and when I turned 38 - THAT'S when my body decided to give me a metabolism! Go figure! Hey, no complaints here! Anyway, that's probably the least of it. In short, I left the building company, worked at the Boys and Girls club as the Art Director for about a year, sold my house, moved back to the island, got back into F&B after a four year hiatus, had my 20 year (!) high school reunion two years ago - good stories 'bout that one! - met the love of my life, lost two of my beloved pets, had a complete nervous breakdown (I'm now proudly the new poster child for Prozac! Yea!), well...you get the idea. So, just so you know I'm not dead now, I will post more later. Yes, hilarity will again ensue...

About Me

My photo
Here's hoping having a blog will help lead me to the adventures that are out there awaiting me. I want to do something with my writing, my creativity, my skills. I just lost a job that I hated, and am so much better off for it!! It's the new me! Or rather, the OLD me! Yippee! I love the Arts, 1920's and 1930's Cinema, the Theatre, The BOB and SHERI SHOW (!), all animals, my friends, and my family. And music!! Good music, which of course is subjective, but that's another thought for another day. At the moment, I guess this is just about me, and where to go from here, and to see if constantly writing out my wandering thoughts will eventually lead to good! Can't hurt, right? I certainly was not doing myself or the Universe ANY good droning away at that "job"! Anyone willing to come along on this ride? I'll let you off if you change your mind. It is, in effect, the journey through My mind, and I am sure that's a scary place for others to be! It's like one of my favorite quotes - don't know whose, since i really saw it on a tee shirt, but it fits me to a, um, well... a TEE: "I live in my own little world, but that's okay - they know me here!"
