There's This Girl...

So, what am I?


I'm a girl.


Oh, you want more?


1) Well, I guess I'll start at the top. The hair. My obituary begins: "Laura was a girl. Whose hair color changed. Often." Invariably, it's never the same color as it was the day before.


As quoted in a favorite movie:


CLEMENTINE:





Anyway, I've tried all their
colors. More than once. I'm getting too
old for this. But it keeps me from
having to develop an actual personality.
I apply my personality in a paste.


I like to think it changes according to my mood. It doesn't. It changes according to my laziness. It takes too much maintenance. As a result, it's variably in a stage of fading - always verging on blonde.


But, in my head, it's a mood stripe. And that's all that counts.


2) I am prone to wanting what I can not have, and not wanting what I can.


3) I have a strong aversion toward any type of 'social/human progress' or technology, and fear the world is treading quickly towards the likes of George Orwell's fictional world of 1984.

~"A paradox:" I am at once paradox, a contradiction, a hypocrite...or so I've been labeled by many. I'm accepting of that, although I wish it weren't so. Oh, in addition, I'm uncategorizable and I hate labels. I am what I please when I please. And that is all. At times I may behave geeky, gothy, lamely, nerdy, retro, bubbly, shyly, etc., but at no time am I "a geek" or "goth" etc. I am a little bit of everything, but not all of anything.


I Fear

Complacency
Conformity
Materialism
Pregnancy
Marriage
Making choices
Spoiled food
The Wizard of Oz
Mass Stupidity

Ceasing to learn or think

Financial ruin
Eels
Becoming lame
Ruts
Losing my teeth
Clowns
Normality
Stagnancy



6) I also like to dance badly, lingering on awkward high-kicks - as long as no one was watching. I love to sing badly, as long as the crowd is thoroughly drunk. I’m addicted to Karaoke. I have over 1,500 songs. Some say I'm a Broadway Baby at heart. But most just say I'm an imbecile. I love to surround myself with anything autumnal. Even on April 13th. I become addicted easily.


I Dislike

My natural hair color
Pugs
Writing checks
People with vague and dubious job descriptions such as ‘part time models/actor’
Advertisements
Public Restrooms
Poor grammar and spelling
Homophobes



I like

To sleep, but never go to bed
Daisies
Fruit Punch
Sunshine
Reading about people in love
Multiple Choice Tests
Laundry Chutes



9) I thrive on laziness. It's my fuel. Laziness is my fuel.


10) I love to mock. I'm good hearted, peppered (lightly) with evil.


So, I guess that's it. Maybe I should give some more tangible details? I'm a corporate drone. I write business correspondence for an insurance company. I have written over 20,000 letters in my lifetime. I hate my job. I live in eastern Pennsylvania. I graduated from college, but am going back to become certified to teach English. I had the best dog ever. But he died. I had the nastiest cat ever. But she died. I drive a Saturn and wear chucks. I sleep in a feather bed that constantly emits tiny down feathers. I wake every morning looking like a very sleepy, angry and bedraggled angel - with feathers protruding from the most awkward of places. I once lived in a mansion. I once took part in a midnight graveyard dance party. I am newly obsessed with royal blue mascara.


I am in love. To a sickening degree. The man I love, well - he's the best.


I call you 'Dude' or "Oh,..you!" If I don't know your name. I make up words to suit my own linguistic needs.


My friends/family/combination there-of are my life.


I err on being ‘chronically verbose.’ (Could you tell?)


I have no fear of making an ass of myself. In fact, I embrace it.


I shot a man in Reno, just to watch him die.


My whole existence rests on being amused. That's why I'm here.


Like I said...


I'm a girl.


The End


Robert Smith is Love.



I wanted to change the world. But I have found that the only thing one can be sure of changing is oneself.
