But it's true you know, you really do never know. It's also true that life is what happens when you are busy making plans for it. See I kept waiting for my real life to start. I had a rough childhood, boo-hoo, wah-wah I know, how boring, *yawn* it bores me to death. But childhood ended (and didn't) for me abruptly when I left home early or it left me really when my mother and sisters left the state and I decided to stay where I was. No one told me I had to go, so I guess I figured that was permission to stay, so stay I did. I was an accomplished liar, lied to teachers, the guy I rented an appt from,whoever needed to be lied to. Finished high school with a 4.0 and only one 3 week visit to the mental health institution. Got a full scholarship to UCLA, but decided to follow my boyfriend and the Grateful Dead instead. Having a great time...waiting for my real life to start. Worked retail management 'cause it was easy and paid more than most of the teachers I knew, how sad is that? Serial monogamist with a few mishaps in between...still waiting for that real life to start. Spent my 20's playing, dancing, drinking, traveling, having a good time, waiting for my real life to start. No one told me that this WAS my real life and I had no idea! If you would have told me at 25 that I would be married to someone in who spent the majority of the time in another country only to be hit my a bomb, well who WOULD believe that? 30 hit me like a brick wall. It wasn't really the "I'm old now" thing. But I spent my 30th birthday in a bar crying because my boyfriend (now my husband) had broken up with me, I had never been married and had no children and oh my God, poor me...my life was over. That actually cracks me up right now. I am literally laughing out loud at how pathetic I was. Turns out I had a "real life" all along, I just didn't know it. ]]> bellasmama http://www.afullcup.com/forums/blogs/bellasmama/38-real-life.html http://www.afullcup.com/forums/blogs/bellasmama/6-how-cool.html Thu, 08 Jan 2009 21:28:37 GMT Wow!
