I recently applied to write for Examiner.com. My therapist, yeah, my therapist, suggested that I check out the website and apply. I was torn between applying to write about either my poetry or being a foodie...I chose food as I've found another way to express myself through my poetry. I received an e-mail earlier today from the Examiner inviting me to write for them based on my Poke Salad article. I am SO excited! My title will be Lake County Food Examiner...
My Examiner Page should be up and running very soon! They are in the process of setting it up so I can start publishing my articles! I am not begging any of you, my readers, to read it, although, I AM asking each of you kindly to check it out. No, this isn't a desperate attempt to "get" readers...well, OK, it is an attempt to lore readers and to get some positive (notice I said positive) feedback! So, excuse the whoring tactics but I am excited and you all have been so great...
Tomorrow is going to be both great and stressful. I finally have my interview tomorrow for the Assistant Principal's Secretary! I am so excited, and nervous, about that. Then tomorrow afternoon I have court with my delinquent daughter. I fully expect her to get lectured, slapped with some fines and be told to complete some amount of community service. But then there may be the extreme...Juvenile Detention Home. I'm honestly, not too stressed out over court tomorrow, BUT the thought of her going into "juvie" turns my stomach. It actually makes me sick.
So Valentine's Day is looking to be quite a cluster of emotional angst. It's not much different than most other Valentine's Days, Sweetest Days, birthdays...or any other traditional gift giving holiday. Que Sera Sera...right?!?
Today was somewhat of an emotional miasma. Not in a bad way, but in more of an "is this a dream" kinda way. No, it wasn't a dream. No, I wasn't prepared for it. However, yes, it was what I wanted no matter how much I keep denying it to myself inside my head.
But I have one rule; don't let this happen...
