Day 634 (Day 1): Let's Stay Together

DAY 1 (previously Day 634): 

Hi. 

Remember me? 

The snarky, sarcastic girl…the one on the journey of discovering how to look at the world in a different way?  A way where the beer glasses were full and people were, well…nice and interesting rather than annoying and ugly. 

I’m glad you’ve stuck around.  Please forgive me for my absence.   So now that we’ve made up and have this relationship back to tip top shape, let’s catch up!! 

Well, I’d love to say over the last three hundred and some odd days I’ve become an optimist, that I no longer have anything bad to say about the world, but then I’d be a liar – one thing I pride myself on not being and besides…where’s the fun in that?  For one, what the heck would I write about?  For two, who wants to read about how great someone’s life is…all that makes me want to do is say, well good for you, now shut the fuck up, go live your great life and stop wasting my time!  But I will say this…I’ve had some pretty monumental changes in my life over the last 324 days and it’s definitely changed my outlook on life, but it hasn’t quite made me an optimist…it’s only made me a happy pessimist. 

So here I go again, learning to see the world through rose colored glasses with a pessimistic eye, only this time…I’ll have a smile on my face.   Pessimistic thought:  I really need to get my teeth straightened and whitened…Optimistic spin:  At least I have teeth (unlike at least 2 people in my family!!!)
