My current life in Texas… tranquilizing. To say the least.
I awaken my aurora by going to the gym. Impressive, I know I kno-haa-ow. Except…
I work out at the Grapevine Fitness Center. And therefore, I elliptical next to
four 75-year-old women. And all 4 of them are in better shape than me. But I’m
not embarrassed.
I spend my afternoons and evenings serving wine drunks and
beer bastards at Fish City Grill. I’m a waitress, and I am good at my job. No,
of course I would never cut you off, ma’am. And yes! I’d love to see you drunk,
sir. Let me even drive your car home for you. But it’s all okay because when I am working, I can pretend
I’m a southern belle and speak with a heavy Texan drawl, ya’ll.
And I typically spend the night speaking in nonsense with my
little brother and sister who still live at home.
I don't go to school, I don't have a car & I don't have many friends. I do clean a lot, I do read many books & I do eat entire boxes of chocolates. And I do get to spend every second with my precious family.
Which I wouldn't trade for the world.
& at least I'm not in this winter wretchedness:
