I talk too much, I tweet even more, and I love to write about what’s in my head and in my life. Unless labeled as fiction, this is autobiographical. If you want to know more, ask. Life is about sharing our experiences and getting the most out of our time, our relationships, and our opportunities.
* But wait, there’s more!
I have known since I was very young (think single digit age) that I was “different,” at least from the rest of my family. I am the black sheep but I hate that phrase… I am not a victim, I am not unloved, and I did not miss out on my life because I was some brand of fuck up… quite the opposite. I have lived a damn good life. I am educated and pursuing more. I travel and explore and meet people and learn new things. I have been fat and now I am not. I have been married and now I am not. I have amazing friends, a pretty decent family overall, and an extensive network of caring, intelligent, mentoring, amazing people in my life.
I go to school. I go to work. I go to Burning Man. I am creative and smart and sexy and funny. I can pay my bills. I don’t lie. I can be political and I can leave it to those who have more time and energy than I to handle it. I once knew how to fly a plane, clean and shoot an M-16, and teach COBOL and BASIC. I have been a teacher, a union organizer, a tour bus marketer (think bands, not Branson, MO), a business owner, an analyst, a paralegal, and a sometime radio announcer. I want to be President.
I have had a play written for me.
I love who I am, I love that I have people in my life that want to help me in my lifelong pursuit of bettering myself.
I am an owned and collared sadomasochistic submissive switch. I am encouraged to grow and learn AND teach. I am valued, valuable. I am strong and strong-willed, sassy, froggy. I give all that I have and receive the same. I am respected and I am honored. I am fiercely loyal and protective, unyielding in my desire be and do what I need and want to be and do.
I talk too much and sometimes not enough. I walk on eggshells because I do care what you think (would I really be spouting all this stuff if I didn’t?)… at the same time, my vulnerabilities are my strengths. What I feel and how deeply I feel it make me who I am. They help me learn, discover, and progress. I don’t have an agenda… I just want to share of my life and have others share with me. No one person, situation, or event is perfect. It’s what we do with all of them that makes us endeavor to live the best life possible.
I am not trying to sell you… I don’t have to. ;-) To know me is to love me. I am just that: Me. And I wouldn’t have it any other way. I am attracted to and surround myself and love people who are the same way. They are themselves, they are giving, they are true and adventurous and intelligent and warm. I don’t care what your sex, gender, or freak flags say. Be yourself, always, and know that you, too, are loved for just that.
I am.
