And you, and you, and you.  Ya&#8217;ll are wussies.  Here I am, up at 5:20. posting a blog.  <\/p>\n<p>I can&#8217;t describe how strange my new job is.  My manager gets so drunk by the end of the shift&#8230; so drunk that this time she ended up wearing some guy&#8217;s kilt (and he in her jeans) and then she accidentally ripped another guy&#8217;s shirt to shreds (him in the backround, not remotely happy, &#8220;This was my favorite shirt.  I&#8217;m not kidding.&#8221;).  And then she had to literally push the kilt guy out of the cab because she was going home to her husband.  That girl draws a crowd.  She is a master of what she does.<\/p>\n<p>Me?  Well, I hang out in the backround, finding the occasional really cool person to talk to.  I know I&#8217;m not nearly wild enough.  I can&#8217;t pretend.<\/p>\n<p>NEWSFLASH&#8230; pretty sure I forgot to mention&#8230; MY CERVIX IS HEALTHY!!!!  False alarm.  Biopsy came back completely normal.  The Peace Corps is suddenly an option again.  I mentioned that the sickness of my innards was confusing to me because I believe most of that is psychosomatic.  My three bad paps happened in late August, when I was miserable, foolishly, uselessly miserable, and since I&#8217;ve come to my senses, my cervix is suddenly healthy.  I&#8217;m just sayin&#8217;.  A friend asked me tonight at dinner if I felt heavy or light, and I said, light, light, light.  My body is so exhausted that my mind is allowed to fly.  I&#8217;ve jumped off the deep end and found the water to be sweet.<\/p>\n<p>I had yet another failed &#8220;meeting&#8221; of a man.  I&#8217;ll put it simply.  I was trying to explain my brother Kent&#8217;s idea of &#8220;doing it wrong differently&#8221; and the guy was all, &#8220;Yeah, like, be an individual, don&#8217;t do it like other people are doing it, be yourself, like, yeah, wow!&#8221;  And I tried to explain that no, it&#8217;s not about anyone else, it&#8217;s about you, and how if what you are doing feels sucky you should try it another way even if you don&#8217;t know it&#8217;s right and this guy said, &#8220;Yeah, you know, just be yourself, blah blah blah&#8221; ugh.  No thank you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;m up later than you. And you, and you, and you. Ya&#8217;ll are wussies. Here I am, up at 5:20. posting a blog.
