As I am cleaning out rooms in my house preparing to move I find
things that I haven’t touched in years.
Tonight I found CDs that I haven’t listened to – Happy Anniversary
Charlie Brown (don’t judge me), Barry Manilow (I just asked you not to judge
me), Levert, Club Nouveau, New Edition, Troop.
Let’s not talk about the cassette TAPES.
I found a size 6 bathing suit one night and I’ve not worn a size 6 since…hell,
I don’t know. Anyway, I’m laughing my
way through it…when I get unstuck and am able to move. (A story for another day.)
Well, tonight I found an old journal. I read through it (had only a few entries)
and I realized that I haven’t changed a whole lot emotionally. I wondered if it’s a good thing or bad. I guess it’s all about how you look at
it. I’m sure I’ll analyze it over and
over again (read: overanalyze to death) and still not decide.
I wanted to share what I thought back in 1998 at age 25.
