*doing a lil cheer* I’m not socially retarded! I’m not socially retarded! LOL! *end of cheer*

This has been a very socially and personally liberating weekend.

God is good ya’ll. When it rains, it pours!

Saturday I met a nice young man. He’s laid back and whatnot. We’ll see what happens.

Today I met another nice young man. Not really my type but I can see us having a friendship..if that’s possible. Lol, he thought I was 16…gotta love that baby face!

This is a very good start to my birthday week!

I was my usual goofy, silly facial expression wearing self and it was ok. I was ok with me. It didn’t matter if they were feeling me or not, it was good practice. Those who know me, know what this weekend means. I’m growing ya’ll! lol!

Here’s a lil diddy I wrote some time ago and I’m just now feeling, living, and breathing it….

I am me…undeniably
Coming to grips and slaying the complex insecurities that belayed me
I am undeniably and unequivocally me
Goofy. Silly. Supercalifragilisticexpialidocious…yeah, that’s me.
Serious. Contemplative. Cautious…me.
Country-ghetto and sophisticated when I wanna be…umm hmmm that’s me.

I’m Free
Free to be “plus sized”, “nappy headed” and “different”
Free to love me, be loved, and give love
Shoot, I’m free to just “be” for be-ings sake
As I sit here trying to express the inner workings of me
I realize that I’m really just getting to know the rest of me…
The real me…not the internalized external world’s view of me
But the real me
And you know what?
Bout time! ;-)
