I am trying to get ready for Christmas.  I have most of my shopping done so far.  I only have a few things left to buy.  I even sent out all of my Christmas cards last night, how very unlike me to be so timely!

The only thing I really need for Christmas is someone to share it with.  I am trying though.  Everytime I meet someone I feel could be a candidate for a date, I discover that I am wrong.  I think my radar is off lately.  How can I fix that? 

Somehow, I always seem to run out of things to write about in here.  I used to have so much to say, but lately I have been dry.  I think it must have something to do with my working alone and living alone.  I have so much time for self-reflection that I don't really need the outlet anymore.  I guess the plus-side is that I am very conscious of myself and therefore my self-awareness makes me more confident.  Although, maybe that's not such a plus!  haha

The Mime

she talks about her past
as if it belongs to someone else

she claims that life has been unfair
to her and only her

my hair
my clothes
my car
my shoes

somehow it has been made hers

flattery is the highest form of imitation

how did i disappear behind
her mythical life?

she wants to be someone else...

...me
