"Do not consider me now as an elegant female intending to plague you, but as a rational creature speaking the truth from her heart.” ~Pride and Prejudice
Am I alone in that dream in which an adorable specimen of a man spots you from across the room, walks towards you, introduces himself, and you live happily ever after? You don't hear of it actually happening often, and of course when you do it is at said couples Wedding or Anniversary because the men that have the balls to do such a thing have already done it. They fall in the "good ones have all been taken" category, I suppose.
So here we are ladies. Stuck out here with the lazy ones. Or the cocky ones, that think they are the ones to be spotted from across the room. When did this become the norm? The girls do the hunting. I blame Gidget's friends. The hoochie mamas that made her go on a man hunt. They started the movement. Bitches.
I was just discussing with my friend that I suppose if I ever want life to start being different than it has always been I will have to take myself out of my comfort-zone. I don't necessarily mean dating either. Just a different life. I am not one to go to an unknown place without a companion by my side. Someone who shares in my awkwardness. Someone I can hide behind when the situation warrants shelter. Perhaps it's time to be independent. I don't like it, but I guess it's time.
I have never been very aggressive in my pursuit for the things I want. Yeah, Yeah, moving to LA is very courageous. I've heard it before, but it does not mean I am a courageous person. I lack the aggression to take what I want. I am a dreamer, not a doer. So, last week I took a chance, and answered an ad on craigslist. Ah, Scary. You know when you are applying for a job or in this case answering an ad and you know it's going to work out. You know when you just know; is basically what I am saying? I answered this ad for production company looking for people that have never been able to accomplish their dreams and would like the help of a life coach. Much like the roommate in Bridesmaids, when offered a free tattoo from the guy in a van, I said, "Sure." They are interviewing people to put on a possible web series. The producer called me today to interview and to set up an interview with a life coach. It JUST GOT INTERESTING! So, who knows what this person is going to try to pull out of the old noodle to help me accomplish my dreams. I'll keep ya posted, but you knew that already, didn't you?
Thank you for reading my ramblings. You know what Jane says, "Those who do not complain are never pittied."
